If you do say a level 2 forge buff (+30% damage bonus) on an intensify tower when it's at 16 range, it does way more damage than it should.

700 base damage, 16 range and it drops down to 50% damage, so it subtracts 350 damage and drops to 350 damage. Now, a +30% damage bonus SHOULD change it to 455. This is not the case. Instead, it buffs the base damage first to 910, and then rather than dropping to 50% of it, it just subtracts 350 damage and only drops it to 560 damage.

Clearly, this becomes a HUGE problem when get you get level 3 forge buff, because then even at 22 range, the towers end up doing about 2.5x more damage than it should be doing.
