Good afternoon.
I play on a free russian server, based on eA. We have the best administrator of all over the world (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) He always actualizes the server core with the stable folder of eA. But now there is kind of situation there. Historicaly, there were 3 kind of attacks on Ragnarok Online: melee attack (f.e. bash, pierce etc), range attack (double strafe etc) and magic attacks (storm gust, etc). The logical meanings of this attack types differs - range is range, magic is magic.
Also there are some kind of cards for players to be protected of an attack of certain type: mDEF equipment to be protected of magic, horn/alligator/noxious cards to be protected of range. We had some tests and aquired (excuse my english (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)), that noxiuos/alligators/horn card etc does reduce magical damage, but according to their description, they must work only for range attacks.
Here is a video of our test: http://video.mail.ru...agon/47/50.html

This tells us for sure, that Alligator card must not affect on magic-type attacks, but the eA situation is quite different. © anonimous
The message of our administrator:
Summary:
In my humbe opinion alligator, noxious, horn and other bonus bLongAtkDef things must not reduce magicall attacks damage. It affects game ballance: now the player have to collect just one kind of equipment to be protected during WoE: anti-range things protect the player from magic too and there is no need to use mDEF equipment. Logically, if magic counts as range attack and related to bonus bLongAtkDef, it also must be blocked by.
Apologize for my bad english.
Sincierly, offchar.
