For what it's worth...

Over the years, I've heard this is an Emulator bug, not a P99 bug (correct me if I'm wrong but that's my guess is to why no devs have posted here in the 3 months it's been posted/replied on). I agree it needs to be looked at, but it's basically in a whole other ball park from the looks. After having experience playing a War / SK / Pal, I can agree that SK / Pally mitigation is garbage. lol

I've also heard AC works same way from P99 to EZ Server, once reaching around 5-6k AC is when it starts to work accurately (which isn't right obviously as we'll never see 5-6(ish)k AC on p99..I think? I never played back in '99 to know for sure).

I know this is not classic, nor do i have valid proof - but just relaying word of mouth from what I've heard about the subject after seeing this thread pop up again and again.

I would personally recommend any tank class to focus on STA / HP gear over AC if / until this can get fixed.
