How does the damage reduction work?
If I have 5 pieces of equipment giving me 10% damage reduction each along with the other buffs... does that cumulative damage reduction of 50% affect elemental/nature/explosion/etc damage reduction also?
Basically, is it only physical damage reduction (explosion included?) or overall such as the tier damage reduction?? ... Wait, is tier damage reduction overall even??? MORE QUESTION MARKS!!!???

An example on a Dino dr%:
80% Dr from variant + 50% DR from unique saddle + 50% DR from imbues
->it would result in 95% total dmg reduction

As 80% reduces it to 20
That 20 get reduced by 50% to 10
And that 10 than get reduced by the other 50% to 5
So 5% of the dmg would come throu

My question was more aligned to the question: Does DR also affect elemental and etc damages too?

The untyped DR % helps with them
Armor does not....
For elemental/explosion/nature dmg you whant :
DR% > DR% specific > Armor
