    Yes you can! OMG!

    Percent reduction is such a meaningless number. The number that should be mattering for you is your percent damage taken.

    For example: An attack hits you for 1000 damage, and if you then change your percent damage reduced by 1%, how much damage would you have taken?

    If you originally had 10% damage reduction, your new damage taken would be 989. If you originally had 50% damage reduction your new damage taken would be 980. If you originally had 20% damage reduction , your new damage taken would be 950.

    (And, furthermore, if you originally had 10% damage reduction that means that the raw attack damage was 1111 where if you originally had 80% damage reduction the raw attack damage that would do 1000 points to you would have been 5000.)

    The problem here, though is that the game does not tell you your percent damage taken, so its misleading.

    Pretty sure % reduction = 100- %damage taken.

    Probably bc the thread is titled Socket Calc or some **** like that. If you're like me assumed it was about socket stones and the only people that need a calc for socket (stones?) are the same ones that need them for d orbs and gem combining.

    according to that calculator, with my set(-the stones), sharding both vit stones+pdef is ideal for surviving rank 9(aka, what I already have). however, +2 defense stones are better for everything else? I don't understand how that adds up, tbh.

    Because Jades get cut through by all the attack levels of r9. Against players without a huge chunk of attack levels, jades are usually your best bet?

    Although most everyone who's factor nowadays has r9 sooooo yeah.
