Then why are my ArmorBreak attacks that are being applied to an opponet with AB sliced armor still being reduced? I'm not doing any extra damage. I'm still doing less agasint these AB sliced armor.


So, how is it broken?







Because rumors are it was hot fixed recently. When did you do your test?




Every single BH encounter.

Still confused... what does AB slice acutally do?


The two schools of argument are:


1. 75% Armor Break slice reduces 75% of the incoming damage when Armor Break is applied, and subsequent attacks while "Armor Break" is active.


2. 75% Armor Break slice reduces the chance that opponent will land armor break on player by 75%, ie 1 out of 4 tries will hit



Which is it? They both make perfect sense to me, but I've seen no real definative answer.







My chances apear to be a gauranteed "stick" 1:3. Once "stuck" the increased dmg appearsto be "about" 75% less of the actuall increase.


Jedi w/ Improved AB is supposed to grant a 65% reduction in targets defenses. (not sure ifthis is also applied to elemental dmg mitigation) AB slice protection supposedly negates 75% of the increased dmg from being hit while AB is applied.


All combat logs I've reviewed after a BH encounter and upon discussion with the BH makes it very clear that there's a reduction in my proposed damage if the BH had their armor protected with an AB slice.


Unfortunetly, I'm unable as everyone else up to this point to post specific and detailed results to justify a conclusion.

If Armorbreak were broken there would be detailed posts showing time stams of an attack while detailing _ALL_ forms of skills used. There are currently 4 different typse of ArmorBreak and the reference is a generic one where blame or fault is cast towards a Jedi. Jedi are not the only ones who can ArmorBreak.


Does anyone have accurate testing to show static attacks, including elemental types, before and after armorBreak is applied? (need to test all four versions)


I've fought well over 4 BH's since first seeing this witch hunt and have yet to identify anything that is wrong. Event the BHs who have fought me were unable to see anything nor had they experianced anything which would create a question of concern.


Another factor, although likely not an issue, is "when was the tested armors AB slice protection applied".


Is someone able to test this or is everyone going to run in their little witch hunt?


*And what do we burn witches with? ***MORE WITCHES!!!!!!*

search the forums... tests were done....


I dont remember anyone BLAMING jedi for this....


You seem a bit confused... It was noticed by BH's because they are frankly generally the most 'armor broke' class


You seem a bit angry...


Again search the forums both here and the smugglers and you will gert your info.
