How does High Prophet set work?

bvira

I did some testing on HP set earlier and the result is shown below.
It seems like the higher the DR the mob has, the less effective HP set is. But shouldn't it be the opposite?
Could someone please explain how it works exactly? Thanks.

High Prophet does not reduce DR in PVE, but is a damage-multiplier.
You need as much armor penetration as the mob has dr to get the full multiplier of 10%

Formula is roughly this: DMG * (1 + Stacks * (0,1 * MIN(1, 1 - DR + APEN)))

BTW HV works the same way

So with enough arm pen it'd just be a straight 30% dmg increase. Thanks for the info!
