DVGMedia Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I was working on a quick short video testing to see who can tank a stack of gunpowder. I was doing some math and calculations. To figure out tanking and such and was messing with damage reduction. I remember reading in a post long ago when warly came out that the garlic spice plus wigfrid would provide a 58% damage Because the two would be additive. That is sadly not correct D: If it was wigfrid could survive a stack of gunpowder with 42 hp. So I thought ,aybe its multiplicative. Doing the math on it would look like this 8000x.05(marble armor) x .75(wigfrid) x.66(garlic) This will come down to 198 damage taken. leaving 2 hp for wigfrid to live off the fire damage. Which she can do so with her fire proof song. However instead. Wigfrid with garlic spice takes a flat 200 damage from the stack of gunpowder Killing her. So that does mean the damage reduction of warly's garlic plus wigfrid is multiplicative but the .5% extra damage reduction from it is not accounted for leaving the combo to just a 50% reduction I am sad because math has failed me D: Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/152465-damage-reduction-does-not-take-into-account-decimals/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenship2 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 does the garlic spice do a precise 33% or 33.33333333%? if it does the latter then yes, the gunpowder would do exactly 200 damage 8000*0.05=400 400*0.75=300 300*(2/3)=200 so wigfrid + garlic + marble armor has 97.5% reduction (and u can get 97.75% with void/brightshade alliance protection) ^-^ i know it does take decimals into account from experience with healthbar mods btw i love ur videos dvg, looking forward to your next one <3 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/152465-damage-reduction-does-not-take-into-account-decimals/#findComment-1680006 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put in .66 instead of (2/3) 2/3 is less protection than .66 Because one is 34% while the other is 33.33% I just did bad numbers D: It does however prove that the numbers are not additive.
