What's this thing do? Latents/Triggers

That's quite different from 2.5% TA... are there links to the original NA tests which suggest it's 2.5% or any reason to strongly doubt the 1%?

Currently debating TPing in Homam Corazza on DRK on mobs where I have no difficulty hitting non-0 damage and naturally 2.5% TA is a lot more appealing than 1% TA when comparing it to Haubyberk.

I asked that one cuz I have one for my drg and it has very very rarely proced. I also used to use with my algol on my drk and I definitely didn't TA as much as I DA, consider 3+2.5 = 5.5% vs brutal earring + pole strap = 7%. I should come close to TA as much as I DA but it usually is about a 1:2 ratio.

If you wear a Jelly Ring and an Avalon Breastplate the Damage Taken will be negated!

full drk jse + this, i'd love to see a drk got 1shotted by normal hit

It obviously has no data/no hidden stats. But I thought I'd ask anyway, seeing as I can't ever get it to drop...

Obviously only for Light resist!

I'm also concerned with the 2.5% TA versus 1%... what do the JP wikis and pages say about it?

The 2.5% versus the 1%, and the 10% Attack on DRG feet make me very skeptical about the validity of the claims

Me too. If it was possible.

Set Summary

* Defense: 119
* STR +19
* Accuracy +5
* Attack +55
* Damage Taken +50%
* Enhances Effect of "Absorb" Spells
* Adds Refresh effect

What's a normal hit? For me, from a normal mob. It's 150-200 damage. For things like Fafnir, it's 300-400.

So let's say I suddently lost half my brain and decided to wear the full set + this necklace. That's +55% Damage taken. Unless somehow a level 71 DRK has ~300 HP I don't think this will ever happen on a normal hit. Ever.

Plus iirc none of the other pieces stack and it's only +duration, not potency. So if you're wearing the fu- Oh god nevermind I give up, this argument is dumb.

tl;dr: That's not going to happen. Even if I know you were joking.

Jkun: Because no amount of fun and joy should lack the analysis necessary to kill the funny.

how has no one asked this yet???

[Yugl]

Spike Flail is a normal hit.

Any info on the killer ability items? Like Dragon Earring.

Not to mention that there's probably reason to believe that +% Damage Taken caps at 50%, or maybe 75% or 100%.

I know we all think Square is sadistic enough to make negative statuses and modifiers uncapped, but since they apply the "round down" rule universally, I'd bet they apply it here too.

And at any rate, seeing a DRK get one-shotted by a mob isn't terribly new. Having it done by a normal melee attack instead of a TP move doesn't sound very interesting to me.

Now...seeing a DRK use Berserk/Last Resort/Soul Eater and one-shot himself...that would be pretty awesome. Too bad +% Damage Taken doesn't impact Soul Eater...

The underlying fact is I don't think anyone would wear the full set for a measly +10s on Absorbs, regardless of situation.

Rail Cannon or Fang Rush are the most personally amusing ones to watch people get one shotted with. Oh, or Mortal Revolution, then their dead bodies slide across the floor as an aftermath, teehee.

Too bad we don't get to see a satisfying trail of blood.

Aegis - Shield Bash Dmg + 900%

If that were true (the enhancement being a %) wouldn't Aegis users see a lot more damage added using Fenian Ring? As far as I'd heard that ring adds 30-50 Aegis or not. +900% dmg would make the ring add 270-450 with Aegis...

Love Torque.

[Ophannus]

Real quick Xanthe, Shadow or Torque for Penta?
5 DEX 6 Attack 9 Accuracy
vs
+0.1fTP and +10 acc on all hits?

Using that KI Damage calculator, shadow still seems to add a static +46 damage or so to penta while the 5 dex from torque adds like 14.
