Summary0008339: Shrapnel Damage
DescriptionShrapnel damage from barrels in the junkyards seems very high.

I was clearing around shipping containers and noticed I was hit for 22.1 damage times 19 ... sometimes times 22.. just for a fringe contact with those exploding barrels.

Seeing as we only have a few spells that can clear the background debris early on this makes getting through the junkyard a trial in itself. Getting the new Luminance Arc makes clearing a bit easier, and a misplaced shot can still lead to one shot scenarios.

I think the quantity of hits can be toned down a little on the fringe hits while still being punishing to be caught in the middle.

Went back and took a screen shot of the damage. Did a freefall mission and took
Small Fireball Shrapnel Damage of various sized hits, max hits was 24 with 11.1 damage done.

The top most Small Fireball Shrapnel Damage was from a Skelebot Junkyard Mossy Barrel explosion 13 hits for 127.9 damage done. Lucky for me I found a single barrel do test that.
