Hey everyone, we tested out energy and body debuffs yesterday.

Both 30% value on my SC'd level 50 (caster was lvl 42). My resists dropped from 26% to 8%. I didnt have any racial or casted resists.

Is this normal? If so why doesn't it debuff the full 30%?

Did you factor in the opponents resists? I'm not sure of that impacts the debuff. but just a thought

30% Debuff debuffs for 37% (Delve*1,25). This is split even between item/racial and buff resis (18% each in round figures).

So if you have 30% base resists, only 18% will be debuffed.
If you have 30+16 resist (with yellow resists buff), 18+16 will be debuffed.

This is not how bug reporting works.

^^ Basically this. Resist debuffs (and stat debuffs) do not work like: X Resist - Y Debuff = Z new Resist. Instead they are more effective at removing the "buffs". This is why stat debuffs do very little to someone without buffs on.
