Stacking Buffs question 

So I know you can only have one buff to exceed +25 armor.
but if 1 single buff exceeds this (like physical resistance) then it's ok.


But my question is, you know how Physical resistance give you +40 vs physical and -24 against elemental?

can i get another buff to compensate for my -24 armor

I know it wont add on to my over all totals, just to replace the armor i lost

i do believe the stacking of ele earth armor buffs has been 'nerfed'.

Test it i say, easiest way to do it... grab an ele friend, scrimmage them, use Physical Resistance, see what Flare hits you for, then use an armor buff + physical resistance and see if the damage is lowered... that simple.

just like Aegis (50% block) and Guardian (@50%) doesn't mean you'll block all 100% of attacks, it's more like 75% the way that stacks... so i've noticed anyway.




All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.

yup, exactly^^

if you use aegis and get 50% blocked, thats 50% of what you currenrtly have, guardian wont give you another 50%, it will give you half of what you have left, which would make it another 25%, totalling 75%. and so on and so forth, meaning you can never have 100% blocked.

Yes.. BUT BUT BUT. My experience is that if a skill says 50% block it's actualy 75% and when it says 75% it blocks 90% of the time ;) Think about that haha
