@Bendy said I had 4 on power snack. Thats 140% vs 128% duration
@magnus_xix ok that would make more since. I appreciate the clarity. Still not mathematically correct but this is Kabam. So ty.
@magnus_xix ok that would make more since. I appreciate the clarity. Still not mathematically correct but this is Kabam. So ty. So I’m not a million percent sure, but what I would guess is that it works similar to extra ability accuracy and extra potency with resistances. If Angela reduces duration by 100%, then that means what the mathematical sum is, is this: Debuff duration - 100% of debuff duration = 0 Let’s say the debuff lasts 10 seconds. 10 - 100% of 10 = 0Straight forward, I know. But if that debuff duration has increased duration, then I imagine the sum turns into this increased duration amount * debuff duration - 100% of debuff duration I’d imagine Angela only reduces the duration by its original value, and not the new increased one. So if we had an increased duration of 30%, we would have the following sum: 130% of 10 - 100% of 10 = 13 - 10 = 3So that’s why Angela can still have duration of a debuff. Now what I don’t get, is that with a sig 200 Angela, you have 35% reduced duration with each buff, meaning 140% total reduction with the 4 buffs. And this Abom you fought has 22% increased duration. Meaning it should be 122% of debuff - 140% of debuff = 0 duration. So I have two theories. One, you didn’t have 4 buffs when the poisons triggered, and if you did trigger them with 4 buffs then they would have 0 duration. But just correct me if that’s not true. Or two, Angela’s reduction doesn’t increase above 100%. So 3 buffs is 100%, 4 buffs is 100% etc etc. I mean i guess also it could be bugged, but I’m not sure.

It stacks higher than 100% for sure as tested in cav eq where its a sig 120 with 25% extra and 4 buffs-5 negated it but i think u can be onto something that the poison triggered before the buffs which looking back poison is at the start not after the buffs so seems u are correct that poison was active before the buffs

I’d be really surprised if it didn’t stack above 100%.

Yeah for sure would suck but if they capped debuff reduction they should cap debuff duration so makes it fair but if u look at the pic i was tagged in it does show 0 buffs at start as power snack then bleed and 3 poisons meaning most likely actives before the buffs which would make duration as u said the full length

That means he likely had an armour up buff from being below 1 bar of power, an armour up buff that you can still see on the screenshot and potentially a regen. That’s looking like 3 buffs when those poisons were triggered. I’d also guess that the poisons were what triggered the regen, by taking off some of Angela’s health. Based on the around 3 seconds of regen duration left, meaning it occurred 7 seconds ago. And the duration of poison remaining means (based on some quick maths) that just over 25% duration of the poison gone means it’s been ticking for over 7.6 seconds with a 30.5 total second duration. So if the poison has been ticking longer than the regen, then that means the regen buff wasn’t there when the poison triggered. Then it seems like only the two armour buffs would have been active, so there was only a 70% duration reduction.
