ME2 Neural Shock Ragdoll Bonus Test

Since this is a repost, I will just go with the version of the test from reading memory values from April 2016.  I had originally done some less precise tests requiring a little theorycrafting knowledge, but they agreed.

Summary

**Neural Shock does apply "100%" additive damage bonus to after target has fallen to the ground lasting until target stands.

**Grenade Launcher damage does not benefit from ragdoll bonus.

**Kuwashii headshot bonus damage works.

New Game +, The Professor, Blue Suns encounter. Level 30 Infiltrator, only 1 pt in NS. No research. Kuwashii Visor and Strength Boost Shoulders


Target: Turian Blue Suns Trooper

Shields: 150
Health: 250

I stripped his shields with the Tempest and all tests were on health.

Tempest shot with ragdoll bonus, and headshot with Kuwashii Visor

14*(1+1+0.75+0.1)*0.303798=12.122

Oh, I actually totally meant to get that headshot to test the visor...

**Grenade Launcher knockdown can cause ragdoll damage bonus, but it does not benefit from that bonus itself.

**Kuwashii Visor 10% additive headshot bonus probably works.
