PvP Damage Calculation: Myth-Busting the "Static Numbers" Theory**
When discussing PvP damage calculation, numbers can be deceiving. It's easy to get caught up in big percentages and high stats, but let's take a step back and look at some actual math.
Let's say we have two players: one with 250% attack power (AP) and 250% critical damage (CD), and the other with 48% reduced critical damage (RCd) and 50% resistance amplification (RA). The first player has around 2,000 attack (ATK), while the second player has around 2,500 defense (DEF).
Using the "static numbers" theory, the first player would deal approximately 3,800 damage without a critical hit and 11,600 with a critical hit. However, if we apply my own theory (which I'll call it for simplicity), the damage calculation looks like this:
- Without a critical hit: around 2,900 damage
- With a critical hit: around 6,700 damage
The difference may seem significant, but keep in mind that these calculations are based on specific numbers and don't account for synergies or other factors that can affect damage output. It's not as dramatic of a difference as it might seem.
Even with an 86% RA, the results wouldn't change much. I never said this system makes sense, nor did I claim that resistance rate is useless (in fact, I think it's one of the best resistances). The numbers are just that – numbers. Don't get too caught up in them!
Keep in mind: This discussion is based on a PvS server with edited items and values. In the original game, the stats were meant to be smaller, and the resistance amplification was designed to make certain options more appealing.

PvP Bikes: Recommendations for Effective PvP Performance
Hey there! If you're looking to buy a PvP bike that will perform well in PvP combat, I've got some recommendations for you. Here are some good options:
- RCRI Craft: Use RCRI on the first slot and resistance amplification (RA) on the rest.
- Full Resist RCRI: Use RCRI on all three slots for maximum resistance.
Keep in mind that these are just suggestions, and the best option for you will depend on your personal playstyle and preferences.

RCRI Craft Options
Hey guys! Here's a question about PvP bike builds:
Do you recommend using RCRI on the first slot and RA on the rest? Or should I go with full Resist RCRI or even full RA?
Honestly, it's up to you. Many players choose to use RCRI on the first slot, followed by RA on the other two slots.

Mysterious Critical Hits
Hey there! I'm experiencing a weird issue in PvS missions: when I have a 101% resist critical rate and my opponent hits me with critical damage during a mission war or duel. It's like my resistance is useless!
I know it sounds crazy, but has anyone else encountered this problem? Help me figure out what's going on!
