Question about negative damage

[cakemixcore]

Is negative damage reduced by armor?

 

[Maker]

Yes, it is.

 

[defskull]

ANY damage that is taken by a unit that has certain armor WILL be reduced, regardless of Negative or Positive values.

 

[Maker]

Not necessarily. If the attack type is Chaos and damage type is either unknown or universal, damage won't be reduced by armor for example

 

[defskull]

Well, I should go for a less-specific ...
I heard rumors saying Chaos will ALSO be reduced by armor, only 40% or so the damage is pure
But for Universal and Unknown, it deals F pure damage =D
What about Divine ?

 

[Maker]

These will all do full damage to all armor types.

• Unit - Cause Mountain King 0000 <gen> to damage Mountain King 0000 <gen>, dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Divine
• Unit - Cause Mountain King 0000 <gen> to damage Mountain King 0000 <gen>, dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Unknown
• Unit - Cause Mountain King 0000 <gen> to damage Mountain King 0000 <gen>, dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal

What the hell is this?

• Actions
  • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Fire
  • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Cold
  • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Lightning
  • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Poison
  • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Disease
  • Unit - AND SO ON...

I am not talking about armor types, those are easily set to reduce damage by 0% in constants. I am talking about armor value -- eg if they had 14 armor, would that reduce damage negative damage? Unless you are saying that the damage type would change how armor effects it as opposed to attack type. Never saw any vastly differentiated effects from the damage type. It seems to have minimal effects on the actual number iirc

edit: well it seems you are right, the negative damage caused against my unit with 10 armor is returning the exact real number give or take ~0.1 when it is divine damage, as opposed to normal which is being reduced
