Sometimes I deal damage twice when throwing javelins. Not sure why. The second hit is also bludgeoning damage, for some reason, despite the javelin doing piercing initially. It's accompanied by the text "X_target was crushed by Javelin ..." Seemingly happens more frequently when throwingn from high ground. There is nothing special about the characters throwing them either: no specialty/feat/bonus to throwing. Except that they're proficient in them, of course. Read somewhere that there was a bug at some point on release where *both* the thrower and the target received crushing damage. But this is not the case here, as only the target receives the crushing damage. Any ideas on why I deal damage twice, and why the second is crushing?
