* Update: Damage Reduction from Armor (9 Apr 2014)

Post by Mod_Nami » 08 Apr 2014, 03:26

This update will be applied on 9 Apr 2014 Server Time.

The amount of damage blocked by armor will be calculated as follows:
(Armor*0.02)/(0.65+Armor*0.02)/2.0

The current formula used for the same calculation is:
(Armor*0.02)/(0.65+Armor*0.02)/1.8

Yeah. For those who resetted prior to this update..

no point giving people who did not reset another reset (ie 2 resets)

Here's another example of why I don't like the update:
https://battlestations.ochospace.com/history_view.php?hid=1177119

With the update, this guy can attack anyone with this build and will never be sunk. Even though I'm 5 levels higher than him, if I had my max speed missile defending build on, I wouldn't be able to sink him.

Even with the damage reduction from armor scaled back a bit, this update is disappointing and ruining the fun of BS for me.

Great update. Drop it to 2.1 for the last time so it fits my build perfectly. :-)

I would like to know if the formula is going to be changed anymore?? I've done some build simulations that work well with 2.0, but my build would change if the formula used 2.1 or something else.

I don't want to waste a stats reset, so will it change again??
