    Not sure what the issue is, chrome is displaying it alright on both android and PC. Perhaps you've zoomed out? Try holding down Ctrl and tap + or alternatively, hold down Ctrl and scroll up until it's readable.

    I normally do zoom in, but then the image obviously gets somewhat blurry. That's why i asked for a JPEG type xD

    BTW, what PC were you using? if i may ask?

    EDIT:

    I tried zooming in, but this is the universal type. Normally speaking, from any zoom in, the image looks the same :\ here's an SS from zooming in from the universal standard or a crazy standard :P

    Chrome did use to have an issue with image resizing but this was resolved a while ago so update to the latest version if you haven't. Try left clicking on the image and opening it on a new tab, see if that works better. Alternatively, you can save the image and open it with your computer's default picture viewing tool (which should make it readable). Don't think PC specs have anything to do with it (it's a custom high spec gaming build running 64 bit win7 ultimate).

    Question: Below are some posts, r they in any manner related with your thread? :P


    Here's it:

    Armor Value * (Armor Modifier by level of attack mob) = Damage

    This modifier goes down as the level of the attacking mob goes up, so that more armor is needed to maintain Damage Reduction as the player moves into higher level content.

    This passive is a multiplier on the Armor Value, so that a small change might not have a huge impact on Damage Reduction, but the higher the base Armor Value the player has the more this passive is worth. Therefore, this passive is way more effective for a warrior is max armor than it would be for a sorcerer in medium armor.

    For example:

    Warrior with 980 armor at level 21 vs. Sorcerer with 500 armor at level 21.

    Warrior DR w/out passive - 980*.00047619 (attacking mobs modifier) = 46.6% DR
    Sorcerer DR w/out passive - 500*.00047619 = 23.8% DR

    Warrior DR w 4/5 passive - (980*1.04)*.00047619 = 48.5% DR
    Sorcerer DR w 4/5 passive - (500*1.04)*.00047619 = 24.7% DR

    This benefit will grow as armor values get higher, which is one of the reasons why this passive will probably never go beyond its 5% increase. It would just become too powerful over time.

    this decimal number slides a bit every time the character levels so effectively you need more armor to stay at the same damage reduction, and thus can't just sit in your level 8 armor at level 20 and take any hits.
