Resist Sword Skill Amp
Reduces incoming damage from sword-based attaks by lowering their effective Sword Skill Amplification. This defensive stat specifically counters sword skill amplification, making it valuable against Blader, Warrior, Gladiator, Force Blader, and Force Shielder opponents.
Overview
Resist Sword Skill Amp directly reduces the effectiveness of enemy sword skill amplification. When an enemy attacks you, their effective skill amplification is reduced by your resistance:
Effective Enemy Skill Amp = max(0, Enemy Total Skill Amp - Your Resist Sword Skill Amp)
Where Enemy Total Skill Amp = Enemy Skill Amp + Enemy Sword Skill Amp + Enemy All Skill Amp
The enemy's Ignore Resist Skill Amp can counter your resistance, but only down to 0 (cannot create negative resistance).
Understanding the Formula
The resistance calculation follows this priority:
- Enemy's Total Skill Amp: Their Sword Skill Amp + Skill Amp + All Skill Amp combined
- Your Resistance: Reduces their effective amplification
- Enemy's Ignore Resistance: Counters your resistance
Example Scenarios
Against Ignore Resistance:
- Enemy Sword Skill Amp: 300%
- Your Resist Sword Skill Amp: 100%
- Enemy Ignore Resist Skill Amp: 60%
- Result: Enemy effective skill amp reduced to 240% (300% - (100% - 60%))
- Damage Reduction: Partial resistance, but still meaningful
Maximum Resistance:
- Enemy Sword Skill Amp: 200%
- Your Resist Sword Skill Amp: 250%
- Enemy Ignore Resist Skill Amp: 0%
- Result: Enemy effective skill amp reduced to 0%
- Damage Reduction: Maximum possible reduction from skill amplification
