This is a request, for accurate meaningful numbers in the game.
360% defense bonus is not %. It's a number that is used to calculate diminishing returns which THEN produces the %.
33% cast reduction is also NOT a %. Again, used as diminishing returns.
So is the damage buff, so is this number.. and that number..
But oh wait.. suddenly this particular ability's defense bonus.. IS a fixed damage reduction, and not diminishing returns.
I can deal with all this, I'm a pro with spreadsheets. (ORLY?)
The problem is, a lot of other people are not hardcore, and inaccurate numbers only confuse them more than they already are. Just put a slot that accurately reflects your current % damage reduction, and % damage boost.
