Could some one please explain to me how this is suppposed to work. Since pub 24 I seem to be taking a ton more damage, enough more that I started looking for broken armor and such. With nothing evident from my armor I went and did some tests.

on unsliced assault armor

armor prvented 185 of 448 or 41% of the damage un-armor broken
and
with armor break 65 of 448 or 14% of the damage
Armor break reduced the armor effectivness by 27%

On 75% armor break sliced armor the results are
un-broken 492 of 900 for 54.6%
Broken 339 of 940for 36%
Armor break reduced the effect by 18%

So at this point I am lost, if 18% is only the 25% of the break that would put the total break at 76%. But the unsliced armour only lost 27% of the total so I would exspect the sliced stuff to lose 6 or 7%

Kreepy
Lost and confused in the SOE world of lies and deceptions

From what I hear it is!

YAY!!!

Damn AB slice is broken?

It certainly seems to be broke atm. I have noticed a significant increase in points of dmg per hit with since publish 24. I find it odd how it seems to be getting ignored though, it's showed up on a few of the profession forums and no one seems to worried about it. To me it seems kinda important to fix.

i dunno but i can wait to use my anti AB holocron

i dont think so....

I don't think this is even a question, more like a hey pay attention it's clearly freaking broke lol. Akast has posted test results on it, and its simple to see the dmg increase in points per hit after pub 24. Let me say to anyone reading this that no I am not crying nerf on Jedi here. I simply want my AB slice fixed. The night before CU was being hit for roughly 340 dmg by my bud. Day after 505 with the same attack, same situation. If the devs changed the power of jedi AB, and in fact ab slicesare working and AB is just more effectivethat's fine, I'd just like an official statement on it, and I'll learn to adapt either way. It seems to me however the 75% deduction in the bonus gained from AB is not being calculated.

and on that note - the holo works great!

Yes after testing and running some numbers its 100% defintly broken(compared to how it worked before) one thing we always say to young bhs is ab slice most important thing now none of have it.

im thinking weather theres been a steatlh nerf to make these new ab crystals more important, or some how interfered with the mechanics

Isn't that what I said a couple posts up; no need for testing. The thing is broke bottom line!
