Pdr Post Red
I've tried doing a few experiments of my own to figure out how things are affected, but I'd like some other peoples' input on my question.
Is threaten (30% or 50% depending on whether or not you have the hyper) still a skill worth using on bosses if you are solo-ing it (taking into account we have void elemental post RED)?

They don't affect the same thing...Void elemental allows us to ignore the 50% dmg reduction that certain bosses have. It does not help us when it comes to pdr which is entirely different.
[quote=PwntByMe]Other than the chaos type bosses, there seems to be little (if any) damage difference between non threatened/threatened bosses like hilla or dimpq bosses/subbosses (in other words non massive resist bosses), so yes, it is quite a valid question.[/quote]
What are you talking about? My damage goes from 650k to 800k when I threaten Hilla o.o. I'd say that's a pretty decent damage boost
Threaten - Enhance's PDR doesn't stack additively with Threaten. It's treated as a separate (20%) source.
I don't see why you wouldn't want to use Threaten in conjunction with Void Elemental considering one lowers the enemy's PDR, and the other lowers the enemy's Physical Resistance.
A little difference adds up to a lot in the long run.
[quote=filozophik]That is not even a question, friend. Threaten is way too good to pass over, void-elemental or not.
Bosses have that big physical resistance on them, hitting up the Pally's signature skill gives you a much higher damage output without needing the extra pdr in equips like other classes.[/quote]
