Description

The purpose of this calculator is to calculate the damage reduction provided by the Animate Dead ancient spell. For the spell to have an effect, the player needs to wear at least one piece of Magic tank armour. Both the player's current Defence level and the piece of tank armour's Armour bonus are used for the calculation. This is done for each individual equipped piece of Magic tank armour and Magic style shield or rebounder.

This damage reduction works on type damage that the player takes as well as typeless (both soft and hard) damage.
