I haven't really played the Backer Beta yet and have mostly just been playing around with character creation. I've read the forums a fair bit and people have said base deflection has been changed from how it's listed in the wiki, but I couldn't find anywhere where it was listed, so I tried to figure it out myself.
The BB Fighter has a 43 listed underneath the shield on the character record, and a listed deflection bonus of -2 (due to having only 9 deflection). So that suggests a base Level 4 Fighter deflection of 45. Cool.
My Chanter has 48 deflection, off a +4 deflection bonus on intellect, suggesting a base 44 deflection for a Level 4 Chanter. Fine.
Things got weird when I created a Heath Orlan Level 3 Druid. I pumped intellect to 18, which according to character record gives me a +16 to deflection. However, I ended up with an 82 deflection, suggesting that a Level 3 Druid's base deflection is 66. This seems huge compared to a Fighter. Is Druid really that much tankier than a fighter, or - as is far more likely - am I missing something?
Thanks, and apologies for the probable daftness of my question.
