Lacquered bow, hunters mark 4 not working + 4 reachable using only one element

Hello once again, while using the Lacquered bow I already had a feeling that the last bonus of increased physical damage with 4 marks may not be working correctly.

Edit: Added possible bug for reaching 4 hunters mark

First off here is a screenshot of my bow, no gem, 21% physical damage increase with all 4 hunters marks.

Here is a screenshot of the damage no buffs 16-17 damage non crit (hard to see sorry) 26 damage on crit

Here I used Blade Oil, 20% physical damage increase and added bleed. It went to 19 damage non crit, 30 damage crit.

Finally, 4 Hunters marks active, same damage as before.

Edit: I had the idea of forgoing the physical damage boost, even once it is fixed to the bonuses of the marks easier / maintain them better. Using an elemental enchantment, allowing for 60% crit, 60% attack stamina reduction, while using full focus build. While testing it I noticed, just that one element can build you up to 4 hunters marks, not just maintain them.

The Lacquered Bow doesn’t appear to receive any benefits from Hunter’s Mark. Critical hit chance and stamina reduction are unchanged, and physical damage increase is definitely not working. With four marks, this bow’s critical hit chance should be 68%, but this does not seem to be functioning.

Attacks deal 19–20 non-critical damage and 29–30 critical damage both with and without Hunter’s Mark.

I did some testing and all enchantments do work but not properly

  • hunter’s mark has 5 stacks not 4 (the 5th is still displayed as 4) and you only get the physical damage bonus on the 5th
  • stamina cost: it works but I’m guessing the stacks are multiplicative not additive and most likely the final stamina cost reduction is rounded down which can be lower than you’d expect
  • crit chance: doesn’t give as much as shown on the item

below is a comparison for stamina cost, on the left is yours with 0/4 stacks (11% reduction) seems to be around 20% reduction instead of 44% (37% if multiplicative)
on the right mine with 0/5 stacks (15% reduction) which seems to be around 45-50% instead of 75% (or 56% if multiplicative)

for crit chance I tested with 90% base crit chance and +15% crit per stack
I did get to 100% crit chance on the first stack but when I tested with 40% base crit chance I didn’t get to 100% at 4 or even 5 stacks which should get me to 100% and 115% crit chance respectively

Wow. I just tested this and there is an invisible 5 mark.
