combat attributes screen ignoring toxic defense ED

[Ridiculous Girl]

as noted in my other thread for barrier reef with toxic defense, barrier reef was showing extra defense in toxic than there should have been. when i was looking at the statistics for toxic defense in the manage enhancement screen it was giving a different percentage from what combat attributes was displaying. as @Luminara astutely deduced from my bug report, was that for toxic defense ED (enhancement diversification) was being ignored in combat attributes, while correctly displaying on enhancement manage screen.

 

case in point, the difference with no SOs slotted in Barrier Reef, and 3 def SOs slotted

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.

 

so, i decided to look at another power that was +def (all) and see if i was getting the same thing. i went back and check the same alt on the test server with maneuvers. with exactly the same results; ie. combat attributes for toxic defense was ignoring ED, while enhancement management was displaying corectly.

 

maneuvers with 2 +def SOs and with 3 +def SOs.

so, it looks like combat attributes is not accounting for ED in calculating toxic defense percentages for at least two different +def(all) powers. i am assuming that this is just a display error and not an actual combat statistic error. i have not tested any other +def (all) or +def (toxic) powers to see if they have the same display error, but there is no reason not to believe that this is replicable with all +def (toxic) powers. 😎
