    Hi there! It's great to finally join the forums with you all first and foremost. Now on to the nitty gritty! I have been tank for a long time on the game and I was excited when the new allies superman and future lex arrived. I'm an Atomic tank and always will be and unfortunately I've noticed a slight problem with the mentioned allies (superman and future lex). So I have tested over and over with all the tank powers and have noticed that superman provides an extra 35% dmg absorption (when maxed) to all tank powers besides Atomic as the absorption does not stack on top of the aura which I believe is unfair because all other tank powers get thar full benefit so why not Atomic. It stands to reason that it gets rectified so that you get that 35% mitig on top of the aura as oppose to just having a total of 35% might even with aura activated. Future Lex is just down right bugged unfortunately, its supposed to be 15% boost to all support stats but as Atomic again and all other tank powers and builds besides brick tanking, weirdly enough, its only half that about 7-8 percent approx based on my testing. So all I ask is that this gets read and and sorted out pls. Thanks for reading!
    Kind regards,

    While I can't speak for Superman, the Lex Luther "bug" is really just a lack of understanding how the game calculated bonus percentages.

    Simply put, they are stacked additively, not multiplicatively. What that means is you are, in fact, getting the 15% but it looks like less than 15% without it because you're comparing with other modifiers. If you reset all skill points and unequip artifacts, then you'll have a more accurate representation of your base stats. Now apply the lex luthor 15% bonus and it should work out to be much closer to 15%.

    An example would be.. 1000 + 30% = 1300. Most people think +15% means 1300 + 15% (=1495) but it's really 1000 + 45% (=1450) which appears to be less than the 15% boost but really, it's all about knowing the right equation in the first place.
