I've been told by my friends that i should stack as much "decrease physical harm -x%" as i can... but I've been wondering how it really works.

A few weeks before there was an event that gave "buddha's leaf" which increases def and has "decrease physical harm -3%". so i bought it and here is my build so far.

http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=b6b7afc5d908867a

Channelling Time -18%
Decrease Physical Harm +14%
Critical Hit Rate +7%
Speed +0.3 м/с
Dexterity +13
Magic +31
Vitality +29
Increase in Magic Attack +40
Physical Defence +1921
Metal Defence +385
Wood Defence +385
Water Defence +385
Fire Defence +385
Earth Defence +385
HP +615
HP Upper limit +5%
Mana Point Value +130

I'll repeat my question.
1. How does this "decrease physical harm" add up?
2. Is it worth it? or should i change what i have now?
3. Can anyone give me some feedback with my equips? b:thanks

Really appreciate any answer (as long as its informative and on topic) b:surrender

    wat devoted said, the decrease physical harm works like... let me giv u an example:

    4k phy def nd around 4k HP will both contribute to the ammount of dmg reduced in about 50% to an enemy around your lvl range nd the higher the lvl difference(if sum1 is higher lvl) the lower the dmg reduction, meaning that if u had 0% dmg reduction it would b the same as u being a lvl30 getting hit by a lvl100 even if both of u were of the same lvl. Values like phy res, HP add up to the dmg reduction value too, but stats like decrease physical harm +14% increase dmg reduction by another 14%.

    P.S You have very low hp wtfb:shocked

    so does it mean that it's better to invest on more def than "dec. physic. harm" ?

    Yes, up to a point. Defense has diminishing returns as well, once you hit around ~9k pdef you need 800-1000 more pdef for another % of reduction. At this point you'd gain more out of +% reduction, and after you max out that you should focus on HP.

    She has such low HP because she made the (stupid, in my opinion) choice to go with full oracle gear, when in theory, only using the wrist guards is worth it.

    tt90 acrobat gear gives like +8 vit each.

    Also she is using phys def shards which is even more stupid. At her level the % of def gained from those shards is so pathetic that it makes me wanna face palm. Theres a reason EVERYONE uses HP shards. Because the higher your level the less phys def % increases from those wimpy shards. Were as HP shards will ALWAYS give you 50 HP when they say their giving you 50HP.

    Of course, no offence to this persons personal play style. b:surrender
