Why subtract first and then divide the balance? Why two operations rather than a single division or a division with a minimum guarantee? - [[User:Tarkisflux|Tarkisflux]] <sup>[[User talk:Tarkisflux|Talk]]</sup> 08:54, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
:Someone suggested to me at the time that being unable to reduce incoming damage to 0 without being immune is a bad thing, and that a creature with fire resistance would still get hurt by a very weak flame, though the damage would be halved or quartered or some such. Hence the added reduction. In retrospect, though, it's probably not necessary, and I feel it does its job well enough at higher levels without the reduction. --[[User:Sulacu|Sulacu]] ([[User talk:Sulacu|talk]]) 18:08, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
