    Reprisal, E4E and Path should act the same way on multiplication. The only doubt I have is Delirium, Halone and Virus interaction because of the main stats decrease and not direct dmg.

    You are free to experiment the effect but I doubt SE would let you get so much overall mitigation. PLD's Sentinel+ShO+Rampart can reduce spike damage up to ~61% total, if reprisal/path/E4E are on their own world, PLD can mitigate up to 80% damage which is too ridiculous by itself and so far when I have raided, they don't seem to interact that way at all. This is not yet including Virus, Delirium, Halone, Sacred Soil etc.

    Before I confuse someone, if let's say some skills are additive instead of multiplicative, it makes way more sense for multiplicatives to go first before doing the additives since additives are flat numbers added/subtracted. If additives act first, the difference won't be much. This however works on decrement, for increment it is almost always better to add in before multiplying.

    I'm going to go out on a limb here to say that they are affected the same way. Going off my previous post, the original damage packet of 100 damage at, say, 100 relevant stat is just going to be generated with 90 relevant stat... And then any, say, Reprisal is going to cut 10% off that.

    If there's any interest to be had there it's "Does Halone or Delirum effectively cut 10% of the damage" when they cut 10% of the relevant stat.
