I got one question from Jedi-Knight regarding enchanting magic shield:

Hi all,

I have read from varies posts in the forums that an armorer can enchant up to a max of 20% (element) magic shield.

I also read that the enchantments on different arts are cumulative. Eg: if 10% water shield on a headgear and 10% water shield on a footwear = 20$ water shield resistance in combat.

So if a player wears 20% (element) magic shield for head, body, foot and shield = 80% (element) magic protection. If the element is say Air, and u wear a Cape of Wind, the player will get....... 105$ Air shield resistance (!!) = Air magic will have NO effect on that player at all in combat (!?!).

This really looks too good to be true. So where am I looking at it wrongly? :?

Thanks in advance. smile

The right math is:
1-(1-0.2)(1-0.2)(1-0.2)(1-0.2)(1-0.25) =0.6928

Proof:
In my battle: http://www.lordswm.com/warlog.php?warid=12059071[Full] [Chat]
I was wearing 3 enchanted armors:
Light mithril coif [E4A4]
Platemail [A5W5]
Light mithril boots [A4F4]

My air shield is 1-(1-0.08)*(1-0.1)*(1-0.08)= 0.238 = 23.8%

The interesting parts are:
Magic proff is calculated as 5% + 5% = 10%
And enchanted weapon damage is calculated as 1-(1-0.1)*(1-0.07)*(1-0.07) = 0.222 = 22.2% too
(I was wearing 3 enchanted weapons:
Mithril longsword [I10E10A10W10]
Thief dagger [E7A7W7]
Longbow [E7A7W7])
