Yea but now this means Pld can cap Magic damage taken easy with just a whm near by. Now the rest of there gear can go to other things (well there sets can be improved anyway).

MDB gear doesn't count toward that cap does it? If not you could use gear like iron ram since you can camp MDT so easily.

I think Aegis doesn't count towards the magic cap since it's direct damage minus and not MDB, unless it was already proven otherwise?

MDT (Magic damage taken) caps at -50%. Idk if there's a total cap for it, or a cap for MDB, though.

Either way it allows other gear options since you can cap it so easily.

Magic damage taken - caps at 50% but you can increase the damage you take further with fire resist sets etc depending the mob

and -40% on Aegis is trash since you hit cap with Shell V before anyway.

This...

The lvl 75 shield will cap MDT with Shell 5
The lvl 80 Shield will cap MDT with Shell 4 (witch is what PLD can cast on itself)

Everything else (unless the rules have changed) is USELESS. Which of course begs the question, "Have the rules changed?"

I'm hoping they secretly upped the shield block rate and/or damage reduced on block for the higher lvl versions, else they just displayed they have no *** clue what they are doing with Aegis since we could already cap MDT with just shell5.

That being said, I doubt we are that lucky, as shield damage reduction is tied inherently to the def rating (and size) of the shield. Since the def remained the same, we can expect no added bonus in damage reduction.

However, the trials are extremely easy, so it's not like a lot of work has to be done to upgrade.

Not 100% useless, some mobs wipe buffs or hurt you based on the buffs you have on. But yeah, more often than not, there's not good point to anything past the level 80 shield.

It's a completely separate term in the damage calculations.

It's a completely separate term in the damage calculations.

To elaborate, MDT applies at the end and literally just slices the damage by however much you have. MDB applies in the term

MAB/MDB

(Attacker Magic Attack Bonus/Defender Magic Defence Bonus).

There is no known cap to this.

Uhh, not to derail but if the new shield is 90% block rate does it not kick aegis' ***? Save the magic def.
