Description of Bug: Damage reduction with level 30 combo barrier only reduces the amount of damage taken by 20%, not by 30%.
How to Replicate Bug: Bump into a mob a bunch of times & record damage taken. Use maxed combo barrier, bump into a mob a bunch of times & record damage taken. Then math out the % difference, it'll come out to 20%, not the custom 30% that the features as well as the in-game description show.
Additional Notes (optional): Unlike High Defense, Combo Barrier does reduce the amount of damage taken. I bumped into a mob 3 times w/out Barrier & took (visually 1.5% off due to High Defense bug) 5201, 5464, & 5503 damage, an average of 5389 damage. I then did the same with max Combo Barrier & took 4255, 4411, & 4352 damage, an average of 4339 damage. 4339 divided by 5389 is 0.805, so I took around 19.5% less damage (assuming larger sample size would get closer to 20% as that's the original value).
After taking the 4255 damage I had 16852 HP left meaning that I took 4318 damage (my max HP is 21170). So the damage reduction from Combo Barrier is not visual only, it does work, if it didn't work I would take over 5000 damage, closer to 5300. The variance from the 4318 damage taken to the 4255 visually shown, is a difference of 1.5%, showing again that it's the High Defense (mine is level 3, 1.5% reduction) that is not working. The Barrier skill is working, just at the wrong percentage when maxed.
