Okay, thanks for the calculations. With that it's understandable to be 20% for divine and 25 for ely (25.5% in this case, due to the system rounding up from rather than down, at 74 dmg it would have been 24.48%). You're right about PkHonor being different on the damage reduction, which is actually surprising as divine in Runescape does do 30%. I suggest giving a brief mention of calculations to show why it's different than most other divines from RS and other rsps's. My apologizes[/quote]
Actually all combat calculations round down. 98*0.8 = 78.4 rounded down to 78. and 98*0.75 = 73.5 rounded down to 73.[/quote]

We're both saying the same thing, just using different way of calculating it. Your talking in damage dealt, i'm talking in percentage blocked. Divine: (98-78)/98=.204 ->20.4% blocked. Ely: (98-73)/98=.255 -> 25.5% blocked

Okay, this is getting stupid. Not worth the effort arguing something when we are stating the same thing just in different fashions.

Fyi Mike said it himself that it's 20% for Divine.
