It makes different sources of Ignore DEF multiplicative, instead of additive.
So, for example, right now my Hero has:
50% from Combat Mastery
30% from Leafre Set
18% from neb on weapon
10% from Ambition
10% from Luminous link skill
which all adds up to 118% Ignore DEF, or way more than I need to hit full damage on everything (that doesn't have physical resistance
)After the change, if we get it, it goes like this:
50% of the monster's PDR taken off by Combat Mastery, leaving 50%
30% of the remaining 50% taken off by Leafre Set, leaving 35%
18% of the remaining 35% taken off by nebulite, leaving 28.7%
10% of the remaining 28.7% taken off by Ambition, leaving 25.83%
10% of the remaining 25.83% taken off by link skill, leaving 23.247%
So, from having an overabundance of Ignore Def, I will have to contend with my damage being cut by almost 10% by the likes of Zakum, and about 42% by CPB.
And Heros actually have it good, with that big 50% chunk of ignore def. Other classes, who under the old method collected 100% by multiple 15% lines and 5% character cards and such, lose even more.
In the new PDR system, you can't have 100% Ignore Def unless you get it all in one skill, like DrK's Sacrifice.
Needless to say, none of us want this change.
