Is this affected by using the cannon accelerator? The morningstar fires a couple dozen individual kinetic projectiles, each doing 1 damage but (am I right here?) enhanced damage is rounded down, so +75% of 1 is still going to be 1.

What about if you used a cannon accelerator and also 3 kinetic upgrades, would that do 2 damage per shot?

As I understand it, the damage number for particulate weapons is the damage dealt if all of the particles connect. Now, since PK25 fires 45-55 particles, and it deals 25 kinetic damage, it's already doing some funky rounding. I suspect that the accelerator still works.

Not only that, but I've tried it. It's more effective with the accelerator in place.

I once used the morning star until Sanctuary. Had it plus %130 when I ditched it for something better.
