I would like to have show damage enabled in Lockdown matches. Is there some reason why this isn't enabled?

Because Knight's HP is measured in bars. I think they are explicitly avoiding direct numbers so it doesn't reveal specifics about the armor stats.

from doing a test from gremlins
super hp capsule gives them 112 hp
so 6 bars is about that much

ok so thats 1 point of reference.... but thats equivalent to one sword hit against a gremlin. So does 1 sword hit do 6 bars of damage in PvP, assuming neutral defense. This is gonna need some testing.

I believe you can't see

I believe you can't see damage numbers in Lockdown because the devs do not want us to know what the actual value of our health bars are. We already know that a bar is more then just 1, 2, or 4 HP (has to be more then 4 otherwise getting "walk it off" would be easy, and its a pain to get actually). You'd get somebody that would sync with a friend enough times to compare damage to bars lost and find out exactly how much a bar of health is (and you know I'd do that).

[a suggestion within a suggestion that I can't help with XD]

I'm sure they're hiding it on purpose, but I'd still like to see it anyway. And I had wanted to sorta test damage but there's no decent ways, the only good ways would be to use temporary guild type things, and nobody wants to leave their guild to host a match for study, plus it'd take 12 people... and doing it in a normal match would be unfair to your teammates and likely to get interrupted.

But hey, perhaps there's another opening, if 12 players on the testing server when its open, as soon as it opens, do lockdown (just one match for damage testing purposes) then maybe people can get some ideas about things. I say just one match because obviously the current testing is for the gates but they may not have disabled the PVP screen [I don't believe blast network was disabled during lockdown tests but there was only so much I could check while watching my friend's screen] so you could do one and get in and out without bothering Nick and then do what you're supposed to and test the new gates.
