This one is a short discussion.
Glancing Blows do nullify Status Infliction and additional skill effects, right? And given observed complaints about it, it makes me feel like it's easier to achieve a Glancing Blow than a direct hit most of the time, which in the end this mechanic has too much it has going for it already, so I believe the damage reduction should be the lower end of this stick.
Damage Reduction from a Glancing Blow should be 30%.
It doesn't need to be so high as it is right now. It's not like dodge people don't have at the very least 10% base DEF/RES from Aptitude alone.
