DDR is a Res, not a Cur, and it follows the same curve as damage strength: i.e. 0.33/0.8. 0.95 DDR reduces to about 0.803 in PvP, or about 80.3%.|

Defense debuffs are Curs, and subtract from defense before DR, and then DR is applied to the total. So high raw defense numbers do still offer significant protection against defense debuffs in PvP.

Alright i'll keep that in mind, thanks.
