Kintsugi + Wind Dancer = ?
Do Kintsugi's and Wind Dancer's defense bonuses add up?
Kintsugi: " Wind Dancer: " 40 % less damage taken sounds huge... and I might feel like giving this raider build a try in Harvest. My zombie necromancer needs a helping hand with Acid Caverns ;) What about fortify? " Would it add up as well? Sounds too good to be true... (BTW, I asked the same question in the ranger forum, but didn't get an answer. Sorry for double posting.) Overwhelmed by Path of Exile?

They don't add up as those are "less damage taken" effects, means they are multiplied. I.e it's X*0,8*0,8*0,8 instead of X*(1-0,2-0,2-0,2)
But nonetheless, putting all of them together on one build will help greatly with survival. Kintsugi + Winddancer is a well known defense combo because of that. Last edited by Baharoth15 on Jul 15, 2020, 2:35:03 PM

" Thank you very much! This defense combo should help a lot to survive the hits that cannot be evaded or dodged. Does "damage" refer to any kind of damage, physical, elemental and chaos?

I didn't knew about this interaction with the Less Damage even with same condition. Thank you.
Yes, "damage" is any damage, minus Darkness. Darkness' damage can only be lowered by darkness resistance, and nothing else. And there's something more to add: Less Damage Taken if you've not been hit recently means that pretty much all DoTs (yes, even that fire DoT from Heart of the Grove that is all the rage nowadays) will be lowered, as long you have not been hit in the last 4 seconds | |
" Thank you very much. That sounds awesome. I would not have dared to hope that there is also protection against damage over time. I really cannot understand why no guide ever mentions this armour...
