    Not tested but usually its all multiplicative.
    PS4 EU DC

    Current CP : 756+

    I have every character level 50, both a magicka and stamina version.


    RIP my effort to get 5x v16 characters...

    There's been a bit of debate to that. I didn't see the follow-up findings but someone said from testing he thinks it's something like:

    Tooltip * (1+(sum of vulerabilities - sum of protections)) * deduction from resistances

    Last time I saw his post he was looking into it further but I don't know if he found the actual game calculation.

    P.S. - with battle spirit counting as a 50% damage reduction additive with other protections

    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    Condemned and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten

    If battle spirit is additive reduction, at resistance cap you would have 100% damage reduction.

    No, because resistances and protections don’t stack in an additive way.

    I think it was checkmath who was looking into it. It was a stealth change, but could always be stealth changed back so who knows.
