Defense
Category	Player Stats

Defense is one of the core player Stats. It indicates how much damage reduction a player or enemy has when taking Damage.

Effective Health

Effective Health, or EHP, is the exact amount of Damage a player can take before dying when taking Health and Defense into consideration. It is a useful number to check for when comparing armor sets and figuring out which one is better than the other.

Effective Health can be calculated with this formula:
Health ${\color {gray}*\left(1+{\frac {\color {lime}{\mbox{❈ Defense}}}{100}}\right)}$

Using this formula, we can figure out how much EHP one would have if they had 1,500 Health and 750 Defense:

• $\color {White}1,500*(1+\left({\frac {750}{100}}\right)$
• $\color {White}1,500*8.5=12,750EHP$

This formula can also be used to calculate the exact amount of Damage you would take from True Damage by replacing Defense with True Defense.

Damage Reduction

Damage Reduction is a percent value which represents how much Damage a player or enemy will not take when taking Damage.

The formula for Damage reduction can be seen as follows:

• Defense / ( Defense + 100)

For example, if a player has 500 Defense, the formula will be 500 / 600, resulting in a 83.3% Damage reduction.
