Q:

Can anyone explain how incoming damage is handled when I summon multiple illusionary defenders?

If I have two defenders and half of incoming damage is redirected to them, does that mean they both get 50% or do they take 25%?

Thanks!

A:

Back shortly after release, only one would get the damage. They didn’t stack at all (which was actually helpful in that case).

The strength of heart to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.

Knowing Anet, you’ll probably take 75% more damage than when you started :p

One will randomly take the damage.

Anyone know what happens if a Defender has not enough HP to take 50% of the damage? Lets say he has 1000 HP left, somone takes a 4000 hit. So the iD will die but will that guy take 2000 or 3000 damage? :o

The player will take 50% as normal because its a buff, not a straight up transfer.

The defender will die, the other one won’t take anything, there is no ‘overflow pool’.

I think. Could do with some testing.
