On both sides. GGG are constantly caught in their own quagmire of complexity and exceptions to rules they had no idea would ever be questioned, but the OP fails to sufficiently argue against GGG's logic, which, for all its convolution, IS logical.

But that last one is the most forced. It should be fairly obvious by now that weapon damage is considered 'your damage' given pretty much every weapon node in the Skilldrasil directly affects you.

In fact.... Ive never even questioned that that's how it worked, even as CI (which shouldn't matter). Can anyone confirm the OP on it not?

]Hmm, why? You can apply Fortify through Reckoning at melee range only, so non-melee chars wouldn't get any bonuses from one working with another anyway.

I presume you'd be able to get fortify on a caster in melee range while you block. I don't think this is necessarily an issue after GGG fixes the clear speed problem they've been having with melee (which they've kind of done).

It isn't a reduction because it isn't reducing your life by any amount, it is setting it to a specific amount regardless of the previous amount. Since 1 is the lowest number health can be, it always makes it a lower number, but that doesn't change the fact that it is making it a specific value and not reducing the old value.
