odd.. I'm taking more damage from Gold Acidus with a +9 anti-large stone buckler than with a +7 dragoon buckler (regular)
Just my imagination? Fixing this in Renewal?

This is correct behavior:
Anti-large stoner = 25% + 5% = 30% reduction from large monsters. Acidus is large, so 30% reduction.
Dragoon Stoner = 30% reduct vs dragon, 5% reduct from large. Acidus is large dragon, so (1-.3)*(1-.05)= 33.5% reduction.
If you're wearing the Baby Dragon Hat, which has what, +10%? +15% reduction vs dragons, that would make the Dragoon's advantage larger;
If it's +15% (i don't remember which it is) the reductions become 40.5% and 47.75% respectively; if only +10%, they'd be 37% and 43%, respectively.

Oh, sorry bout that. Doesn't change conclusion...
This is correct behavior:
Anti-large stoner = 25% + 5% = 30% reduction from large monsters. Acidus is large, so 30% reduction.
Dragoon = 30% reduct vs dragon, Acidus dragon, so = 30% reduction.
If you're wearing the Baby Dragon Hat, which has what, +10%? +15% reduction vs dragons, that would make the Dragoon better:
If it's +15% (i don't remember which it is) the reductions become 40.5% and 45% respectively; if only +10%, they'd be 37% and 40%, respectively. Any other anti-dragon gear you have on will just make the advantages of the Dragoon buckler greater.

Not wearing a Baby Dragon or any other gear that reduces dmg from dragons.
I figured that both should give 30% reduction when used alone.. but it seems the stone buckler gives less. Maybe it's just my imagination but mobs felt smaller after I switched ^^

I was told the hat currently does not confer the +10%/-10% bonuses?

Baby dragon hat does not reduce damage this time around.
