it is, but if you only taking one line in def, you should take 0040. And if you take two lines, you should get 4040 not 0440. If three you should take 4440. Because 0004 gives force valor that have 25 block bonus. You can find drinks with same amount, sure if you got force valor and drink, you will have 50 block.

i've always had 4x4x for defender sense cu, im wondering if i dropped the melee line if there will be much of a difference, when aura drops its a quick death reguardless.


i wonder how much dmg is mitigated combining 4x4x together. is it even worth it i wonder?

There is no Armor break applied
Improved Force Aura is running
There is no states or KD


Defender 4040
997 Possible Damage
493 Standard Damage
132 Elemental Damage
624 Final Damage


Defender 0040
1004Possible Damage
568 Standard Damage
150 Elemental Damage

Assumptions:
Attacker has510 -1183Rifle
304 Accuracy
you have Melee Defense FS skill +20
You are being hit with Advanced Critical Shot
There is no Armor break applied
Improved Force Aura is running

Defender 0040
949Possible Damage
679Standard Damage

Numbers may be off by 1 or so due to the game alwayts rounding down


Also remember that the difference between 170 Melee Defense and 80 Melee Defense means you are gonna get hit less often as well.


While this reflects 1 attack that connects, you would have to look at test over hit percentage to determine actual benefit

I have been 0040 defender, 0044 defender, 4040 defender, 4440 defender. 4xxx is nice because you get that melee defense + innate armor. Both of these together make the line good enough to have in themself. Dominate mind is nice for tanking high end mobs too.

I edited my post, because I forgot to change the 170 Melee Defense down to 80 in Calculation.


Correct numbers are in there now. Wasnt much of a difference.


I will run another for a rifleman opponent for you.
