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 3% of your damage will be reduced, which is 30,000 less damage (1% = 10,000). This would mean you would do 970,000 damage to Chaos Vellum.
Now use the multiplicative standpoint from the example I linked previously.
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.
It's 9% reduction in the first example. 3% of 300% is 9%, so damage is 910,000. Your overall point is the same and just as correct. Just sayin.
