Fortitude is not working as it should?

Results of the test:

We tested with my ww barbarian without open wounds and deadly strike on kakarot barb without blocking, 3.4k life barbarian.

The results were very similar to the one i tested alone, so we decided to equipe the target with a shaft + string to prevet dmg.

With fortitude and 4.5k dmg (this is the lower dmg i could get ;without areat, storm,belt, actualy my barb was also naked, he had only his botd and fortytude on it to make the smallest ammount of dmg so the testing could be more reliable) i needed around 4-5 wws to kill him

Without fortitude i need 6-7 wws to kill him, so if u actualy think about pvp penality 1/6 the dmg of fortitude i just 50% , and this is not so much.

this is the reason i said before that there is no much to tell about that test ,personally i think that a good duress armor is much better for bvb then fortitude, u will do actualy more dmg with open wounds,

But

of course if u dont belive our random test and u think fortitude is so great u can test it yourself and use it on your barb.

yes, sadly i stripped my barb way before and didn't have any charms, but the test was accurate. the difference in overall usage of fortitude is not as great as i expected.

HOWEVER one must take grief in the equasion since the only way i'd take fortitude over duress is if i had a grief with it's uber dmg. It's the changing of worlds once again boys, OW fell(did it?) to damage in bVb duels.

imho grief+fortitude >> beast+duress >> botd+fortitude.

ps. this may be a very good thing that will revive bVb: the clash of worlds - OW meets RAW DMG, after reset of L2 / place: blood moor / BE THERE!!!!! :p

you guys are just talking crap now.

to anyone who is in any doubt about fortitude as a result of this thread:
IT WORKS, and it works 100% as it would appear to work. there is no need to test it, and tbh there was no need to test it in the first place.
if i could i'd bet all my acc's that i'd beat you with beast+duress vs botd+fortitude on your side. have a nice day!

Well you proves yourself it works and adds a significant amount of damage. you needed 2 whirl less to kill so added alot.
whether or not it is better than OW is irrelevant as you were testing whether fortitide actually worked - a fact noone with any sense doubted anyway.
Then you withheld the 'valuable' info although results were clear.
good job.
Also, not everyone has a fortitude so they cant test it even though there was no reason to.

kakarot - PWNING mr_grimm whereever wont prove his point wrong :)

Now we can maybe move on and test if duress+beast is better then fortitude+greaf,, the problem is that i dont have beast/dures/grief so i can not test it. If someone can try and test this out this could be very helpfull to all etf members.

I am always prepared to be a good target for testing so if anyone wants to try something out just whisper me
