you use migration to move points from one ham bar to another. for example: you have 500 health 500 action and 500 mind. if you take 100 away from health you can put 100 on your mind so now your 400 health 500 action and 600 mind. this is good for medics who need more mind or entertainers who need more action.

Mitigation is the ability of advanced proferssions to take less damage from combat.



It comes in 2 kinds:


Ranged


Melee


The basic premise, is that mitigation lowers the maximum value of the damage range of something trying to hit you.


So if a mob does 50-400 points, then mitigation will make it 50 - 325.


There are several levels of both ranged and melee mitigation. The second one stops more damage.


It is mostly for fighting high end monsters. (because their damage ranges are bigger).


50 points off mitigation on a mob that does 40-50 pts of damage makes the mob do 40-40.. not a big deal... but on the 370 damage mobs it lowers the max damage a lot for every hit (down to 320 max).


This is the way I understand it.. there should be better posts in combatant forums.
