How is the reflected damage calculated?

Curious how reflect damage is calculated and how it works.

I'm a 102 barb, have a friend leveling up his sin and is getting really proud of his level 98 sin damage. I said "try to kill me" and dueled, he stealthed, then came out attacking where I used demon roar. Demon roar has a "reflect 100% damage taken to the attacker" but the results were... pretty overpowered. He hit me for around 350 dmg,... I reflected 3600 and 4k dmg and killed him in two reflects without ever attacking. I think both were crit reflects, too (not sure if his attacks were crits as well). My question is how is reflect damage determined?

    The reflect is before your defences are applied.
    So they hit you for "I'm a godly sin, huge!"
    You reflect that.
    You reduce your amount by "I am a barb, your puny damage cannot harm me!" and they reduce it by "I am a squishy squishy fish, I die now, blarg!"

    damage output / pvpmodifier(4) / phydef modifier / reduce phys damage modifier

    meaning if you attack somebody, that has a higher pdef than you, you will take more damage than you deal

    The reflected damage is actually based off the attack level of the veno in that case, not the barb.
