Can we please get better information on the new stat system and how the damage formula works?

The new system is really confusing for old and new players. How is a player supposed to know that having 50% defense doesn't half the damage taken like it did in the old system? Or how is a player supposed to know how accuracy and deflect work without knowing that mobs have fixed base stats?

To be honest the official patch notes regarding the ratings are a joke. If a person that hasn't paid attention to the preview server for a while now reads them they will have no idea what is going on:

Defense: Works as in the most recent Preview build. [...]
Deflect: Works as in the most recent Preview build.

Please make it clear either ingame or in an official news post and not in some thread on the forum that will get buried what the stats do exactly. Having the complete damage formula written out would be ideal but at least post detailed explanations of the stats.

I have to agree with this, in the tooltip for example with defense it should show the % of damage being mitigated. The current system actually makes it more confusing for players as its very misleading if you do not do the math and understand the damage/defensive formula's. The math people are okay but thats probably 5% of this game
