after doing some quick math and some research, i think the developers need to look at the armor bonus that veno's get in foxform. the math does not add up.

For instance, I am a heavy veno, running armor of 3809 currently. PLUS my fox form bonus of 120%, i should have armor 8400's, instead I am 7300's. this ratio is a bonus only of 92% and not the 120%.

Understand I am taking the bonus at face value, but is the bonus calculated off just the armor, OR overall pdef?

any enlightenment dears?b:kiss

    The bonus applies only on EQUIPMENT defense, you get defense bonus from other sources (str/vit and cleric buffs), and those dont apply.
    Still, that pdef is about as high as a barbarian physical def.

    There's some oddities in how these numbers are calculated, and even how basic armor is added. I've found similar issues with the Barbarian equivalent.

    I think it's only equipment values, and only the white number equipment value... but there's something odd going on underneath that turns the whole matter into an unresounding maybe.

    Maybe for barb and fox self-buffs, but for clerics, the blue phys def bonus is calculated and increased too.

    Physical Defense needs to take into account your strength stat, your con stat, your base defense without any equipment, and equipment defense. Equipment defense is the only thing that gets 120%'d, so everything else remains a flat number which might explain why you only see a boost of 92%.
