Hell, the Geth Trooper health reference isn't even relevant to my second test, which does not rely on anything except directly observable in-game information to prove that the formula suggested in the OP is inaccurate.
To be fair ryoldschool had been looking for some clarification on the damage formula as the cloak bonus has been a matter of contention for a while now (ever since the Krysae...).
In any event, he was just passing along what someone from Bioware told him. I would like some further clarification on the matter myself, as I had already seen the weapon damage formula which had it as a multiplier (and added to the last SR damage evolution of Operational Mastery in SP) months ago.
It is pretty peculiar that BW would claim it is an additive bonus. They need to tell us what it is adding to, or simply say that they passed along incorrect info and it is indeed a multiplier as derived by players.
