Redcuded reflected physical damage mod on chest does not work
|
Hello,
I have the mod "You and your minions take 100% reduced reflected physical damage" on my chestplate. I run a purely physical build. I even ran brutality support to confirm it. I do die as soon as my attack hits a single mob in a reflect map. The map itself only had the reflect mod and nothing else. Please fix this. Last bumped on Dec 24, 2022, 8:27:35 PM

Not a bug, you have Abyssus.

With Abyssus and Aspect of Carnage you have 48% reduced reflected physical damage

This is not seriously how it works, right?
That's not even remotely the same wording. Why does that add up?? Holy, this is some serious nonesense. |

That's seriously how that works.

Increases and reductions are additive. As others have said, yes, that's how it works.

Thanks for the information.
Still think it is an incredibly stupid thing. Yes, increases and reductions should add/subtract, but this is an entirely different wording. |

" take 100% reduced damage = 100% reduced damage taken 42% increased damage taken 10% increased damage taken Also shock does the same - You take up to 50% increased damage Last edited by seaman#4993 on Dec 24, 2022, 8:14:36 PM

" so shock is not elemental damage right? Different word?! Reflected Physical Damage clearly a subset of Physical Damage so that increased Physical Damage taken and reduced reflected Physical Damage mods are additive to each other This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

Abyssus is a global increased phys damage taken--it increases phys taken from all sources, which includes reflected phys. The effect of being shocked or cursed with Vulnerability can also nuke your reduced reflect. The wording may be different, but they're all applying to the same basic thing in this case. Physical damage taken.
That chest just gives you a high baseline for reducing your phys reflect taken. You can still counter the increases in a variety of other ways. I have a pretty good sense of humor. I'm not German. Last edited by aggromagnet#5565 on Dec 24, 2022, 8:27:59 PM
