Can someone explain Merciless Massacre and culling blade
When I use a Vader counter up against Rey teams, there is a lot of inconsistency with the amount of damage my culling blade does against Rey. Firstly, does the bonus damage from culling blade scale linearly (ie. For 6 debuffs, 6×50% = 300%) or exponentially? (50% applied 6 individual times) Secondly, does the bonus offense from MM go away after you have hit everyone at least once, but before you take your last turn? Sometimes when I use this counter, I'm able to kill Rey after applying, for example, 14 debuffs with a 600k+ damage culling blade. Other times, I don't quite get through all of her health and she gains damage immunity. I am getting a crit every time.
With my specific turn order, Rey is either the first character I attack, or the last character after I have removed Merciless Target from every enemy. As a result, I'm unsure if the bonus 50% offense from MM is related to whether the person I'm attacking has the Merciless Target icon or not.
How many debuffs should Rey have before I use culling blade? What are other possible sources of inconsistencies that I may be missing? Any help is appreciated.
My relevant Vader mods are
7811 offense and 81.05% crit chance before MM
