Shiv Rage Item Inconsistencies

[Sparrow]

There are some items (Mystic Shot, Cold Front, Torment Pulse, Phantom Strike) that have their damage increased by the rage status effect.
Others like Lightning Scroll, Quicksilver Reload, Capacitor Active, and Mystic Burst are not affected.

Just seems weird that a global damage amp only works on certain items. Maybe it is intended.

I doubt it's intended, but it looks like the consistent factor is that Shiv's amp doesn't work on effects that have "flat damage", that is damage that doesn't scale with spirit.

I agree with potapeno; just noticed it didn't apply to Spirit Burn.

A correct comparison would be head hunter, scourge and toxic bullets (on the other hand - is decay, on which the global amplification effect such as shiv rage and calico max ult is realized), but it is probably done within the framework of balance.
