can anyone explain how this works? im currently at chapter 130+. linley have this skill eye and scale armor from being warlock rank1. can anyone explain, this scale armor has def of 25degree(for example) which can block 25 degree below damage(example) then when he was hit by a lesser 1 than the scale armor for example a damage of 24 to his 25 armor. then this something energy consume25%(sample)?? how do they compute for that and where this energy consume comes from is it from his spirit force/magic power? another question for example his armor is 25degree , then he receives a damage of 26. he said his armor will break? what will happen to damage? is it 26-25= 1 damage to him? im sorry for broken english, im not native speaker so please bear it. i just need some clarifications. THANK YOU!
Its not exactly, clear, but Linley also has his vitality stat - I think that at the point you are at, his Vitality is somewhere around 10-12, maybe. So from my understanding, if he was to take a 26 degree damage, then 25 of it would be blocked by his innate spell, and then 1 of it would go onto his vitality, reducing it to 9 or something. Also, as has been stated in later chapters, it would be easier to break - So next time he gets hit by the same spell, it would deal, say, 5 points of damage. Its redundant though - Linley almost never, ever is at a disadvantage, and even if he is, he quickly either escapes or overcomes it.
Well for what I understood the 25 Def mean that any attack under it will not harm him. However any attack over 25 Def will harm him. You can think of it as a absolute defense under 25 and britle shield over 25.
+1 Just think of it like a bullet proof vest or something. If it can stop the bullet, you're good. If the bullet goes through it, you're probably dead or in surgery with crying family members waiting in the hall to hear good or bad news about you.
When he was hit by the attack the scales properly broke and the energy used to recreate it or he will have a gaping hole
Dont try understand the logic behind everything in this novels, just accept as is and keep on enjoying the story. But yea the system is confusing. Because with increase of vitality, he can recover from even more severe injuries so even if the damage value is over his defense value he will still survive without a problem.
Yeah, but you know that bullet proof vest arent really proof? There are grades and limits on the quantity of shots they can endure. The energy bit is basicaly how much time he can keep the spell. Lets say he just used the spell and isnt being attacked he can keep the spell x hours. If he is being attacked each attack he takes consume energy of the spell no matter if it hurts him or not. So if he was receving a attack of 1 atk he wont be hurt but the spell energy will be consumed. So if it is the same attack of 1 atck but from a milion Bee his shield would get consumed and after that this 1 atck could hurt him.
