<title>Pandora Shoes Bugged.</title>
<description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The lower PB shoes give 15 pts, resistance to everything and 15% BONUS to Thrown Damage. A 15% bonus is rather large, I assume it&apos;s bugged.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/8634/bug2la.png&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Message Edited by krytical on &lt;span class=&quot;date_text&quot;&gt;04-05-2006&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;time_text&quot;&gt;06:40 PM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It would only be better when your total thrown bonus without the shoues is above 100, if it is at 100 it gives the same bonus as if it had been giving 15 pts, and if its below 100 this &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; would make the total resistance worse. Exception would be if you get a thrown resistance bonus (%) from something else, so that a regular stat would become better than this bonus.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;eh something... to tired to explain correctly I think.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;If the thing you wonder about is why you not are getting anything from buffs that ends with &amp;quot;Bonus&amp;quot; and gives a % number. Then &lt;a href=&quot;http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=general&amp;message.id=98154&amp;query.id=0#M98154&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; might be of interest.</description>

<title>Re: Pandora Shoes Bugged.</title>
<description>actually, later when i considered it, i do of course know some abilities that give resistance... the awakened abilities that give resistance to each of the kinds of damage for 20 seconds apiece.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;as to the &amp;quot;bonus&amp;quot; issue, i know how it is supposed to work, i just wonder if it really does. for instance, i have some coat that gives 3% thrown resistance bonus, yet it seems to have no effect, even with a high thrown resistance score. even if i only had a 50 thrown resistance, that should be 1 1/2 points more, say they round it down, so one more, but the score doesn&apos;t seem to be effected at all.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;from your other post there:&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;hr&gt;Faithlessness wrote:&lt;br&gt;&lt;div&gt;This goes for all attributes given from clothing/abilities/everything.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;what i&apos;m wondering if it really does consider the bonuses from clothing. that&apos;s what i was wondering with the IS question really... i&apos;ve tried setting my vitality to maximum for the high &amp;quot;IS regen rate bonus&amp;quot;, yet the IS regen rate of IS regen clothing i wear doesn&apos;t seem to be effected by the bonus.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;some bonuses, i know they work, because i can find the results, like having a high perception giving a ballistic accuracy bonus, or a high vitality giving a max hp bonus. the effects of those bonuses will show in the buff abilities, when you mouseover the description of the ability in the actions window or on your hotbar compared to when you mouseover it actually being active in your active buffs area or whatever you&apos;d like to call it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;so is clothing not effected? if not, is it by design or a bug? if by design, are there any abilities that give IS regen rate, or does it just make the IS regen rate bonus completely pointless?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-uljhar</description>

<description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have not really checked in to any of the new calculations for the new systems, I have just written how it &amp;quot;seems to be&amp;quot; for me. So I know as much as anyone else, if not less. But this IS regen &lt;em&gt;thing&lt;/em&gt; interests me, so I guess I will check it out in a near future.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Re: Pandora Shoes Bugged.</title>
<description>i was reading around, and found from another post of yours, kryt:&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;hr&gt;krytical wrote:&lt;br&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Against people with 200-240 Thrown Resistance my knives do 100ish damage unless I use Find Weakness, which is probably getting fixed in the next patch.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;is that the adjusted resistance score? in thinking about this further, let&apos;s say all resistance bonuses are working, but not showing up on the combat tab of the status window (and since you&apos;re saying you&apos;re occasionally getting such low damage against people, it must really be doing so)... it could be even worse than the 240s, and when you include the bonus from the shoes, that bonus does indeed become massive and, i have to agree, unbalanced.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;so say i have all level 50 shielded clothing, which give 36 each to thrown resistance, then a level 50 hat and a pair of level 50 gloves, which from what i&apos;ve seen of the enhanced ones generally have 33 for resists. glasses i have no idea, but anyway... 36 each from pants, shirt, and coat, plus 33 each from gloves and hat will give 174 resistance. add the bonus from a full perception score, and that&apos;s already 261. add also the 15% bonus from the shoes, and it will be another 29, giving us a total of 290. even worse, if dues is right and the strongest kind of those shoes are giving a 25% bonus (half the bonus of a full perception score, i might add), that&apos;s another 43.5, call it 43, for a total of 304, which seems like an awful lot. that&apos;s before even popping calm mind, calm body on, even if that is only 20 seconds out of every 60 and costs IS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;while that example is extreme, with the person in question just going with mostly shielded stuff, i think that extra 29 (or 43) resistance you can get seems a bit excessive, for just an article of clothing that most everyone has. i don&apos;t think i&apos;ve seen such extreme %s on anything else out there, so far, and that gimps anything that does thrown damage that much.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-uljhar</description>

<title>Re: Pandora Shoes Bugged.</title>
<description>ahh, a bit more reading and testing and i&apos;ve found that answer. vegetto did find an ability that gives IS regen, and posted about it here:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=CR20Abil&amp;message.id=1384&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=CR20Abil&amp;amp;message.id=1384&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;blindside had some interesting points in that post, as well.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;so to answer my own question... yeah, bonuses only work for abilities, not clothing. so as far as the topic goes, this also makes the shoe bonus % only useful when you are using calm mind, calm body or some other ability that gives thrown resistance.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-uljhar</description>
