- The only problem here is that you cannot prove such. Hence, it's a baseless claim and I honestly hope that you don't expect me to believe what you say without proof.
Want proof? Do basic math.
Assume PDR ignore is still additive.
Let's say you do 1,000,000 (1 Million) damage.
Chaos Vellum has 300% PDR
You have 97% PDR Ignore. That means 9% of your damage will be reduced, which is 90,000 less damage (1% = 10,000). This would mean you would do 910,000 damage to Chaos Vellum.
Now use the multiplicative standpoint from the example I linked previously.
Quote:31% dark harmony passive
30% codex
15% light washing
10% trait
6% cards
300*0.69*0.7*0.85*0.9*0.94=104.19% PDR
This would mean Chaos Vellum's PDR drops from 300% to 104.19%. Considering PDR reduces your damage by that amount of %, you're going to go from doing 1,000,000 to doing 1, because your damage is reduced by 104.19%.
I'll ask you again. Explain to me how you go from doing 30 million damage to doing 1 damage IF PDR ignore was still additive and you have 97% PDR Ignore? Physical Resistance cuts damage by 50%, which is still 15 million damage.
