I can see how that can be confusing. I'm still updating the guide for I7, I will adjust the language accordingly. The next verison of the guide has slightly better calculation examples also.

Thanks! The other thing I'd really like to see is a consolidated and verified table of mixed-level modifiers, both for PC vs NPC and vice versa. It sounds like you're already working on that, just wanted to let you know that I'm eagerly awaiting the results. Thanks for all of your work with this.

SR defenses are typed melee, ranged, and AoE. This means they each protect only against attacks typed as such. The assumption was that (except for Hamidon), all attacks have at least one of those three types, and therefore SR defenses work against all possible attacks.

Apparently not.

Note: appears to be a PvP issue only, because it only seems to have occured for player versions of the powers in question.

Update: I posted in the linked thread that Castle confirms the psi "hole" extends to PvE critters as well, at least some of them (but probably not all of them). But this isn't a pure PvP issue.

Another update: lucks and insights don't match their text descriptions. According to pohsyb, these are their true values:

DEF
S - 12.5%
M - 25%
L - 33%

ACC
S - 7.5%
M - 18.75%
L - 37.5%

See this thread for more info.

Version 1.4 of the guide is posted here. Special easter eggs mistakes have been randomly scattered throughout by my subconscious mind: be one of the first to spot one and harass me about them for special forum poster bonus points.
