Attack Damage vs Impact
Can someone definitively explain what determines damage in this game? Best yet, could Bungie just... put it out there so we know? I keep seeing different explanations saying completely different things. A straight, tested answer would be great.
A straight, Bungie confirmed answer would be greater. Thanks.

EDIT 1: I also need to know, apparently, if Impact is the same across all weapon classes. Does my Pulse Rifle with the same impact as my Scout Rifle do the same damage per round (not per burst)? Again, how do we know? Anything confirmed?

Edited by The Clap: 2/10/2015 8:49:19 PMImpact determines damage in crucible. It explains why a green level weapon can hit the same as a legendary. Level advantages (including damage differences) have no impact (no pun intended lol) on weapon damage. In pve it's damage number. Impact will determine the ability to stun an enemy.
