Damage Reducing Augments

Damage Reducing Augments reduce incoming damage by a set amount.

Overview

 * See also Damage Calculation

Damage reducing augments reduce incoming damage to the Arisen or a Pawn by a fixed amount - the reduction is applied after the mitigating effects of Defense or Magick Defense have been applied.

The magnitude of the effect can depend on the location (Gransys or Bitterblack Isle), and whether or not the game is in Hard Mode - both Bitterblack and Hard Mode result in better mitigation.

Dragon's Dogma

 * Because the Dragon's Dogma DLC required for Hard Mode - the Challenge Pack: A Trial for Adventurers contained a bug that could corrupt saves Hard Mode effects for the original game are not listed here.

Dark Arisen
In Dark Arisen the effects of the augments were modified.
