ShinkuDragon Wrote:no, since %ignore ignores a percentage of their defense, so if you ignore 100% of CPB's defense, you're ignoring all 180%. this is why the more def a boss has, the more effective ignore becomes, because it ignores larger chunks of defense.


you can use extractions or look for them in maplearchive, afaik P.Resist is always 50%, while P.Defense is variable and it's what PDR ignores.

Since, for example, I thought 40% PDR meant that you deal 60% of your full damage, would 180% PDR mean you would need ignorePDR/Boss %/Total damage that makes you deal over 180% of your full damage in order to do any damage to Chaos PB?

ShinkuDragon Wrote:fine, "is what PDR ignore ignores" do i REALLY need to be that specific?

PirateIzzy Wrote:I said that because PDR is the defense value. No need to get so angry.

If it's 180% defense, and you have 40% defense ignore, you would ignore 72% because 40% of 180 = 72.
