Defense debuff broken in /WP?

Ok, I am playing my MA/WP on the wall, and he takes a hit from the Cims and it seems like he is easier to hit, so I open the Combat Attribute window. It says I have 17.52% defense debuff resistance, so I keep it open on my defense page and I take a hit from one and it takes my defense down 8%, and didn't do anything to the def debuff resistance. Is this how it is supposed to work?

8% = X-(X*.1752)
.08 + (X*.1752) = X
.08/x + .1752 = 1
.08 = .8248X
X = .097

Looks like you got hit with a 10% defense debuff which your DDR knocked down to 8.248 which was then rounded before showing you how much debuff got through.


Be well, people of CoH.

Oh so that is what defense debuff resistance is. It lowers the amount of defense debuff, I am so slow, I guess I thought it was like a protection. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
