body pressure question

[RoxStarzzz]

If I maxed body pressure, would it do dmg back to the monster 60% of the time or 100% of the time? The description says 60% chance to stun, 100% dmg. Not sure if that means it will do 100% dmg 60% of the time, or 100% of the time. Thank you.

It always does power guard-like damage, the 60% is the chance for "god mode" effect from the hits

[Takebacker]

The description is wrong. It's 100% damage whenever you're hit, so 100% of the time.

The 60% refers to the chance of inflicting the spike buff, and the % is wrong there too. It's actually 40%.

[Komality]

60% chance of removing the enemies touch damage ability.
100% Damage done to the enemy by you touching them, please note when the above effect occurs you will no longer be able to do touch damage.

so then I would be able to effectively use my aran like a pg mule at Big Foot and Anego if I maxed this?

Let's get this cleared out:

1)While body pressure is on, you'll ALWAYS do touch damage to a monster if IT does touch damage to you. Clarification: If the monster can do touch damage to you (including missing you) you will do touch damage to it. (see points #5 and #6 about dealing touch damage to monsters.

2)The 60% is incorrect. You have a 40% chance of inflicting the status effect on the monster.

3)This status effect does NOT work on bosses.

4)Body pressure does NOT reduced the damage you take.

5)Body pressure counts as you hitting the monster. So if you would miss a hit on the monster.... body pressure will miss on the monster.

6)The damage you deal is based off of your range. Not the monster's touch damage to you. This is evident in that you can hit a snail for much more than just 1 damage. Normally a hero's Power Guard will miss on a snail when they take 1 damage. Body Pressure will still deal well over 1k. (as I said, it depends on your range)

Even if the monster misses, Body Pressure still does damage. o_o

Yeah, I guess I should've worded that better. I meant it as in if the monster can do touch damage to you (including missing you) you can do touch damage to it.

This also counts as Pole Arm attack so all skills stack with it both active & passive. Like Snow charge & Combo Critical.

So based on Shouri's description, there would be no point. Any damage you could inflict with Body Pressure, you might as well use your normal attacks for.

I don't know if BP blocking touch damage works on BF ( but i would guess no) anyone @ 0% want to test it?

BP doesn't work on bosses, and Bigfoot counts as a boss, so no.

Exactly. There's no point to using BP when going up against anego unless you have the HP to take a full body hit and even then it's mostly pointless.

As an addendum, even if you kill the monster with your BP, the monster will still damage you. It is not a preemptive strike.
