If the information on ecatomb is correct...

White Voodoo Level 10
Mana 112
Channel 1.0 seconds
Cast 1.4 seconds
Cooldown 8.0 seconds
Weapon Soulsphere

Requisite Cultivation Spiritual Adept
Increase your Defense Level by 99.
Reduces your Attack Level by 66.
Lasts 60 seconds.

If you combine this skill with the cube necklace (+1 defense) you will be able to reach 100 defense level! So basically psychics will be invulnerable and be able to solo harpy wraith and basically everything b:victory

    It is not possible to become invulnerable through defense. One of the base mechanics of any game includes a limit that would prevent this.

    That is, unless you're a GMb:shocked

    What are you talking about? It has a 8 second cooldown so obviously you can cast it again before it runs out -_-

    Its too bad your dmg would be awful and you probably would have a hard time killing a normal mob with max voodoo.

    what are you going to tank it with? your awsome damage? or tanking it by getting 100 other **** dders to help?
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    any WB that doesn't have a AOE will focus on one person, if I had 99% defense then I'd have ALOT of damage reduced on it. so I could take ALOT of hits. What's 99% of 25000? (that's roughly what Sonic Oppressor does to my veno)

    Where does it say its a % reduction? its a fixed number reduction, so if you have 800 defense it would now make it 899

    For every Defense Level that you have higher that your opponent's attack level, you get ONE PERCENT LESS DAMAGE TAKEN.

    if we're still talking about harpy... he does have an aoe. and for you to be a tank (non-barb) you'll need to out dd everyone. with a 66% dmg reduction thats isn't very likely unless you got some very **** up dders. its all fun and games until you have to spent 10 hours killing a boss and it resets at 1% hp.

    Like i said, where does the White voodoo skill says its 99% ? it just says it adds 99, adding 99 defense will NOT make you take 99% less damage, if thats the case, i'm rolling a Phychic right now LOL

    Well, harpy wraith was just an example of what you can do with 100% damage reduction (or so I thought). But I rather have a chance to kill harpy wraith (even though it will take forever) than no chance at all. b:surrender

    It IS the case. It increases the Defense Level. The Defense Level stat on your character sheet is percent-based.

    Nobody even reads any more...

    I have no problem doing that if you'll try understand how percentages work in comparison to fixed numbers.

    I just cant see a skill allowing 99% damage reduction lasting 1 min on an 8 sec cooldown !!!!

    It's backwards, you get 66% defense level but -99% attack level at maxed. So you take 34% of all incoming damage, but only do 1% of your potential attack damage.

    The skill does not lower your damage taken by 99% like you are trying to say.

    Nobody comprehends anymore...
