why the boosted damage is not applied to adrenaline augments? is it a bug or by design?

This is intentional. Adrenaline's bonus is an addition of units for damage enhancement and not a flat multiplier. So think of it like this, your Shaft deals 1,000 damage per shot. Long range turrets have a maximum of 30 additional units of damage enhancement. Every 100 units adds +1 to the multiplier. You start at 100 for x1 damage. If at half HP, you will have 115 units of damage enhancement which is 1 + 0.15 = x1.15 damage, which will deal 1,150 damage.

Boosted damage supply adds a certain number of units to this, ranging from +50 units for a 0/20 drone and +100 units for a maxed drone. If your drone is maxed, you will have 100 (base) + 100 (boosted damage supply) + 15 (Adrenaline boost at half HP) = 215 units of damage enhancement =x2.15 damage, NOT x2.3 damage like you would expect. You will deal 2,150 damage, not 2,300.

We've been asking that question since 2020. Maybe a certain someone might like to explain why, if he shows himself.
