per the previous detailed discussion on Taunt et al, and is used as "Damage" in the equation in the (Damage-DR) term.
That's how I've always believed it to work. It explains quite nicely why battle cry and taunt don't have much affect when the target is might or fanatacism enchanted (in 1.09 at least). Apply -DR% from skills affecting the monster, then enter the normal damage routine you see on Tommi's site, -DR first, then -%DR.

As an example of how I think this works ;), if you have -50%DR, -10 straight DR from equipment, and -50% Battle Cry applied to a monster who does 200 damage base damage, to find your total damage you'd do:

1)reduce by battle cry to 200*(1-.5)=100
2)reduce by straight DR to 100-10=90
3)apply -%DR from gear 90*(1-.5)=45

45 damage total.

Now same setup but the monster does 50 base damage with a +300% bonus from might, so it hits for 200 damage.

1)battle cry reduction 50*(1-.5+3)=175
2)straight DR 175-10=165
3)%DR 165*(1-.5)=82.5 damage total

So % DR gear doesn't combine very well with straight -DR, but works well vs. fanatacism or might. %DR from taunt&BC combine very well with -DR gear but do very little vs. fana or might.

Quote:Grrr: If Amp damage resistance reduction is applied with phys res, is Shaftstop's resistance overcome by Amp Damage?
afaik, yes. But the Shaftstop helps take the sting out of Amp Damage.
