Isolytic Defense
Modifier · defense
In short: Mitigates the incoming isolytic damage pool (0–100%), the counterpart of standard mitigation for iso damage.
Reduces the incoming isolytic damage pool the way standard mitigation reduces weapon damage, as pass-through 1/(1 + def). It applies to the isolytic pool only, before the pools merge for Apex Barrier.

Isolytic Defense reduces incoming isolytic damage the way standard mitigation reduces weapon damage. It applies only to the isolytic pool, before the pools merge for Apex Barrier. On critical hits it acts on an already-reduced pool: critical mitigation’s isolytic share is removed from the gross isolytic pool first.
The stat converts to a mitigation rate through a soft cap: mit = def / (1 + def), with both as fractions. 100% Isolytic Defense mitigates 50% of isolytic damage, 300% mitigates 75%; the rate approaches but never reaches 100%.
