you guys are converting the dps after dr is applied to some end mulptiplier, , which is a fallacy as I have mentioned already

0% DR = 100dmg-> with amp 200dmg (x2.00)
10% DR = 90dmg -> with amp 190dmg (x2.11)
20% DR = 80dmg -> with amp 180dmg (x2.25)
30% DR = 70dmg -> with amp 170dmg (x2.43)
40% DR = 60dmg -> with amp 160dmg (x2.67)
50% DR = 50dmg(X) -> with amp 150dmg(Y) (x3.00)

for some reason u find it necessary to divide Y by X and think the result is a valid #, its not, thats why u end up with this illogical conclusion that you are doing triple the dmg with DR,

youre only doing 1.5x the damage, because 150/100(original unchanged amount) = 1.5

attack dmg = 100 // monster has 50% dr // effective dmg = 50
If choose Amp -> Triples attack from 50 to 150 :) winner
If choose 2.5x -> 50 x 2.5 = 125

attack dmg = 100 // monster has 0% dr // effective dmg = 100
If choose Amp -> Doubles attack from 100 to 200
If choose 2.5x -> 100 x 2.5 = 250 :) winner

conclusions
Nice little riddle. Shows that more dmg reduction always means less dmg taken (ignoring exceeding certain caps), and that the effectiveness of amp is most noticeable on 50 %DR builds.

100dmg attack
0% DR = 100dmg -> with amp 200dmg (x2.00)
10% DR = 90dmg -> with amp 190dmg (x2.11)
20% DR = 80dmg -> with amp 180dmg (x2.25)
30% DR = 70dmg -> with amp 170dmg (x2.43)
40% DR = 60dmg -> with amp 160dmg (x2.67)
50% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 150dmg (x3.00)
60% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 140dmg (x2.80)
70% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 130dmg (x2.60)
80% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 120dmg (x2.40)
90% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 110dmg (x2.20)
100% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 100dmg (x2.00)
110% DR = 50dmg -> with amp 90dmg (x1.80)

Triunes honestly calm down, take a step back and think. Its ok to admit you’re wrong.

Edit: I’d seriously go respect you if you could just say whoops and let it go. So far you look like a clown

where did you get the sliding scale for damage? the comparison is the same damage, not less and less as the DR increases.

0 dr + amp'd + 100 dmg attack

50 dr + amp'd + 100 dmg attack

that's the same damage. you just made up the declining damage total.

its where you geniuses are getting the triple the damage bit

i didnt make it up

Quote (thesnipa @ Nov 28 2017 03:33pm)

no. it's not.

0 dr + 100 dmg attack =100 dmg + amp curse = 200dmg (200/100=2, aka double)

50 dr + 100 dmg attack = 50 dmg + amp curse = 150 dmg (150/50=3, aka triple)

however 150 < 200, so the 50 DR helps.
