So accordin to the description, it looks like the dmg resistance boost defiance gives scales with constitution
Now assuming full justice, full rank 7, full onslaught straight up into constitution gives bout 643 constitution, I was wonderin what kind of damage resistance this would give.

If any of yall good number folks can give me a formula for it that would be slick, I couldn't really find it in MechaTeddy's thread it just said +X% and i have no idea wtf that means lmao

Thanks again guys

    At 640 Con I'm getting about 21% dmgRes per stack of Defiance, which would make it 126% when fully stacked (or 1- 1/(1+1.26) = ~55.7% final dmgRes before considering other +Defense_dmgRes sources like gear).

    That is an absolutely massive investment for such a small gain... at only about 250 con (will have to double check exact number when I get back home) I get about 19% per stack... so is an extra 12% (2% per stack) resistance worth investing an extra 400 con for?

    Yea its not really worth it just for the extra dmgRes, but there are other potential benefits to getting more Con (maxHP, ES/NM crit%, Defiance energy, Juggernaut), so I dunno.

    Whether or not it is worth it would definitely depend on the rest of the build, specs, powers, role and such. My blaster DPS has something like a 430 CON and I definitely do not regret it. I got my EGO and DEX up to around the "soft cap" of 200-250ish and dumped the rest into Con. Damage is great and I'm not sucking dirt all the time.
