1. Calculate the max damage using damage range.
DMG * 2.5 * 1.5
2. Apply the multiplicative 15% Claw Bonus reduction to the 5% PDRate, meaning it'll be 4.25%.
3. Subtract 15% from 4.25%. This gives the enemy -10.75%.
4. Apply your damage.
(DMG * 2.5 * 1.5) * 1.1075

Thanks for the info! I did some testing using this in my formula and it seems to work out perfectly. My formula says I can hit 64567 and I managed to throw this:
Spoiler
Right after catching this SS I threw 64.8k, I believe, but I missed it. Now without the weapon's ignore I should only throw 55k, so I think ignore is definitely worth it if you get it with whatever else you want. I would like to do some dmg testing against a higher PDR later, like Zakum.Against 40% PDR I should throw 50k, but with boss dmg it becomes 63k, a 13k increase, so I'm definitely not stopping 'til I get it. Without the ignore, I would still lose over 10k damage to any boss, Zakum or weaker, so I would like to get boss dmg + ignore if I can. Stuck on epic. =(
