About Reduce Damage+ Latent Awakenings
Recall that Reduce Damage+ Latent Tamadras were introduced as part of Version 14.1 update, and that it’s the reward for May Quest? Game8 have tested that the Damage reductions + give 2.5% damage reduction.
This post contains the calculations and evidence.
That’s this guy.
The experiment
Game8 (JP game site) did this test against a Keeper of Blue. Without the latent, the Keeper of Blue hits 16,879 damage.
Now with the new latent (Reduce Water Damage+), 16,457 damage is received.
Time to back calculate the number!
Known facts from above:
- No Latent: 16,879 damage
- With 1 Latent: 16,457 damage
If the latent were 3% damage reduction:
… Well, that’s not the right number. Now if it’s 2.5% damage reduction:
That number looks familiar — It’s the same number as expected!
With that we can conclude each Damage reductions + Latent is 2.5% damage reduction.

◯ダメージ軽減+たまドラがチャレダン報酬にあったので、「水軽減+1個」を使って検証してきました😎
1枚目軽減無し(16879ダメージ)
2枚目軽減あり(16457ダメージ)16879×(1-0.03)=16373
16879×(1-0.025)=16457つまり、ダメージ軽減+は1個につき「2.5%軽減」っぽいです#パズドラ pic.twitter.com/KIsTXFKg7Q
