now, instead of reducing by percent, fire shield reduces by set value now.

hmm I still don't understand.
Before the update I was immune to ice, after the update every time someone tried to ice me it would say Resist. Percent wise I was 101% immune to ice (Shield buff 78%, ring1 3%, ring2 5%, neck 5%, and earing 10%). So now after the update what does it all mean?

now it means that u'll no longer have that 101% reduce with fire shield.
instead of 78% reduce, it'll reduce the effect by 78 points.
so if u get hit with 200 status effect, it'll become 122 with fireshield no accessories.

if he got frozen all those times without getting iced hes still immune (resist thingy) what would mean the 78 is still a % O_o

it is still a percent.
but you can still use shield, buff and switch to another weapon without any problem. its time they should fix it to make the game even more interesting
this kinda will decrease the dominance of the pure str glaive.

O.O it's still a percent?

i did not notice any changes with it at nachals so guess nothing really changed only the grammar might have

i remember the skill always saying it reduced effect by XX amount i didn't see a % sign or the word anywhere in there....so then its pretty much unchaged...if im wrong show pics for something but i really don't remeber the skill saying it reduced by %

the skill description never said percent, but it always reduced by percent. either bug or mistranslation.
