What is the damage formula for summons, and are they effected by mastery?
Corsair summons don't appear to be effected by mastery. I've noticed a huge variance in the damage they do, as shown below. Is this a bug? Other classes' summons appear to have much more stable damage.

I think it's just the range shown in your stat window minus total damage buffs?
Marksman's Freeze is pretty consistent. I noticed my Corsair had variance as well, I feel like it's just blowing random numbers here and there.
Iirc all Corsairs summons don't apply mastery (even the Cygnus thing for UAs, I have one and it has the same problem). But I don't remember if the same applies to other classes, maybe @JoeTang; can solve this.
Edit: I found my thread when I posted the mastery bug on my corsair: http://www.southperry.net/showthread...20by%20mastery
Sorry, I have no idea. I would be interested in more testing from other people on this though.
why not try your summons while wearing a knuckle, if possible?
Is it 0% mastery or more than 0% mastery here?
Just did some testing on my bowmaster: my phoenix's damage is pretty consistent. At most there is less than a 100k discrepancy between the lines.
I tried this with a 81 attack Knuckle. The numbers were significantly lower (as expected) but there was still a significant difference between max and min damage. With Octo-Cannon and a Knuckle, the damage ranged from ~20k to about 110k.Quote:

I made 4 UAs in this week (2 for my cousin and 2 mine) they were I/L / Bowmaster and Paladin / F/P and their UA summons had the mastery working correctly, so yeah this is a bug for corsairs.
