1.7B6 arcane might and superpower bonus on bow/sling

Getting arcane might or superpower adds "power" and "uses stat" on the ranged weapons themselves, as well as the ammo.

I'm assuming this just useless tooltip info or a bug as it seems to do nothing.



Edit: reduce un-needed info.

Range weapons use ammo stats for damage calculation (1 slot, not ammo + weapon slot or ammo + weapon slots when you play mindslayer / gunslinger with 2 range weapons ).

Both arcane might and superpower should also increase your melee and unarmed damage. It doesn't matter if you have have melee / unarmed skills or not

To clarify..

This post is about the tooltip of slings and bows -in specific- changing after superpower and/or arcane might prodigies have been activated.

Everything else was just extra and I edited it away;

Because of said tooltip, I tested to see if the newly added figures on the sling -in specific- had any function. And they do not, it seems... At any rate, the figures did not affect sling damage in the character sheet.

I suggested that maybe the figures (on the sling in specific) could possibly affect other areas of the game like unarmed since you can still punch while wearing a sling. However, I didn't test this.
