Maximizing Your Damage Absorption

From TheKolWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

In the tradition of the other Dressing For Success articles, this is a guide to maximizing damage absorption.

Damage Absorption reduces the damage you take by a factor of (√(DA/10)-1) * 10%, but capped at 90%, which is reached at 1000 points of DA. Note that DA is completely separate from Damage Reduction, which acts prior to DA.

Notes

  • Since DA is capped at 1000, players might wish to use less powerful (but perhaps more reliable, or enchanted differently) equipment than listed above. (In fact, with Hammertime, a player can max out with just a 200 power hat and 200 power pants.)
