AC seems broken!

[Olon]

Many people have noticed by now that max ac priests and mages, probably other classes too, are taking in a lot more damage than in previous servers. I know that priests and mages are not capable of wearing dual shields anymore, but the difference between DS shield and D2 shield is just 5 ac which can't be the cause of this damage.
In previous servers, max tt archer with atleast g15 force hit a max ac priest about 2000 damage with xice. In this server, Fayen, without max tt and with less than g15 force is hitting max ac priest 3k+ damage.
Now, I know that priests are really strong with max ac and all, but in this server, can't even take out staff with g20 hardest cause some noob tt noob rare thief/archer will just come and xice you to death without problems.
Not sure where the problem might come from, maybe ac symbol not working correctly or whatever, haven't really tested it yet, but will test it.
Will be much appreciated if this could be fixed or looked into ASAP, concidering that SS might be taken out from quests.
Thanks!

Fayen is hitting you 3k damage.....? 19x tactics now? He is also wearing a Polar knife that is +15 damage no? And he is also wearing G15 force?

How much AC do you consider max AC for priest.

Thanks,

Well, I didn't really mean max ac, I meant g20 hardest+shield. Ofcourse you can have high ac rings and candles too.

they're asking for the number of "defence" wich can be found on ur status

Exactly why I asked HOW MUCH do YOU consider as MAX AC??

Something seems to be wrong with AC indeed. On previous servers, I was a GW with about 90 AC and got hit for nearly 4K by max TT thieves/archers, but on this server, I have nearly twice as much AC and I'm still getting hit for about 4K.

on previous servers i was gw with 8x ac and i was getting 7.2k - 7.3k dmg from [MY]StarxX and JoannaDarc

3 ac = 1% damage reduction

Thus, 200 ac = 66.67777777% repeating damage reduction.

Do some damage test on tactic dummy then on a priest / mage with AC, post your results, and see if its working. Post how much AC the person has, also post the damage from tactic dummy, then post the damage to the person.

Do have better results, do this as many times as you can. 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100 + times......

I repeat, POST YOUR RESULTS, because I dont trust your math.

Thanks,
