barrier reef giving extra toxic defense


Recommended Posts

i was on my marine affinity/water defender, Buttery Justice, and while looking through my combat attributes i noticed a slight difference with the toxic defense, a +0.46% difference. barrier reef is supposed to give a fixed +def to all defences and i, for the life of me, cannot figure out whether this is a display bug or some hidden +def toxic that i am getting from another source. i checked another alt, a necro/MA MM and they did not have this slight difference in combat attributes.

 

i included my powers list just to show that i have no other sources for this +def toxic.

 

i figured i would drop this here, and maybe someone can tell me what it is. 🙂

It's not only Barrier Reef, everything on Masterminds gives extra Toxic Defense, not sure if it's intended or it's a glitch, because Toxic Defense used not to exist.

ok, since i last posted, i leveled up two my other marine affinity alts... now i swear that my necro/MA MM did not have the different toxic defense when he was lvl 28, but now that he is level 30 and i added two slots to barrier reef and two extra +def SOs, it is now giving me the same thing. this is despite while looking in the enhancement manage page giving the correct stats.

My level 28 arsenal/MA controller shows no difference in toxic defence. so far... here she has no SOs slotted yet, but when i put in a lvl 30 there was no change between +def stats.

it sort of makes sense... woosh... barrier reef.... woosh wave noises.... tidal stuff... wash away the horrible toxin into the sewers... woosh...

so, i went ahead and recreated Buttery Justice on the test server. i gave him the auto-level to 50 and vaguely recreated the process of leveling up, approximating what i would do in normal leveling. with exception that at levels 23, 25, and 27, i six slotted barrier reef and filled it in at those levels with def SOs, to see what effects they had. I also added the alpha, agilty core paragon for the +def.

 

at level 22, with no SO slotted in there is no difference. nor is there a difference with 1 SO slotted in.

at level 23, with three slots, but only 2 SOs added, no difference either. it was only when i added a 3rd SO, that there was a difference.

Same with levels 25 and 27, with 5 slots and six slots with SOs.

and the same finally with level 50 and an Agility Core incarnate added

i did not try maxxing out the most possible defense for barrier reef, with like say 6 slotted with boosted generic IOs, just to see how much i could squeeze out. nor did i test to see if it was a def % threshold that was surpassed that started adding in extra +def for toxic. that would be easy to test i think... just so, something is screwy here and i have not quite figured out what it is. 🙂

That was enough information for me to figure it out.  The Toxic Defense portion isn't respecting Enhancement Diversification values.

 

Base Defense for this power as a defender is 7%.  Three +0 SOs enhances the power by 60%, but ED reduces that to 56%.

 

7 * 1.56 = 10.92

7 * 1.60 = 11.20

 

It's not ED capping on Toxic.  Don't know why, but that's what's going on.

Get busy living... or get busy dying.  That's goddamn right.

i think i was coming to that conclusion, but i had not gotten there. i think that is exactly what the problem is. 🙂

there is something going on in the combat attributes, because i decided to look at the same alt and add in the maneuvers power with 3 +def SOs, since that gives +def (all), and i got the same result for +def (toxic). it does not show in the manage screen, but does in the combat attributes screen.

 

maneuvers with two SOs...

and maneuvers with 3 SOs

so, combat attributes is simply not factoring in ED for def (toxic)... 😎
