I7 will have some sort of magical fix for SR and Ice Tanks that lets Defense scale appropriately against higher level mobs<\/a>. Yay.
\nI don’t actually have anyone that fits that at the moment, mind you, but …
\nActually, it goes further than that, affecting all Defensive powers<\/a> (inspirations, buffs), and ToHit Debuffs. Interesting.<\/p>\n

Basically, Level advantage in PvE, Lts, Bosses, AV’s, and Monsters had To Hit bonuses. This made Defense not scale properly. We changed them so that instead of To Hit bonuses, they have Accuracy bonuses. What that means is, Defense is applied before their bonus, rather than after. Since Accuracy is a multiplier, it is multiplying a small base value than before.<\/p>\n

For instance, an AV had a base To Hit of 75%. If a player had 25% Defense, the AV would have had a 50% chance to hit. Under the new system, the AV’s has a base 50% chance to hit. The Defense is applied, reducing his To Hit to 25%. The Accuracy is then applied, giving a final To Hit of 37.5% — a 12.5% improvement over the old system.
\nAnd, interestingly, it seems some powers are actually, behind the scenes, pets. E.g., Caltrops or Blizzards. New tech will let the devs pass on buffs that are on the caster to those kind of powers, too<\/a>, if it seems appropriate (e.g., doing a Build-Up and having it affect the damage of Blizzard). More info here<\/a>.
