    Offense/Defense/Skill Power how it realy work?

    Hello agents

    Can someone tell me how the Offense/defense and skill power attribute and mods work for real?
    Cause clearly theres something i dont understand let me explain ;

    Today i was playing pvp and i saw a guy in my team with 2 offense/ 19 defense and 10 skill power . How its possible? or How he does?
    The amount of stats and mods on it dosent fit at all. but the guys is realy resistant and good damage ... and its not the bugged armor its been patch so.

    For me im at 2/8/9 i know i can get some up like if i used more bager tuff stuff or thing like that but for my pvp build its working good like that even if i want to have some item changes on stats but ... its a long process ... But 19 in defense i just cant figure it out ... its my total points the dude got 31 point total just Woo i want this too!

    Thank you all and please help me :P

    Good game agents

    Would love to help, but normalization is a tire fire in this game. It is so awful trying to figure out what you can and can't do. I just don't care anymore I go in with what I am wearing. I have seen many issues like described and even worse ones. If I had to guess the game might be trying to account for recalibration rolls, so it is adding excessive numbers.

    the amount or colored points you have does not matter at all, outside of activating talents like unstoppable force, which need 7 blue points

    you get 1 point for each attribute or modslot that is filled with the same color, so if you hae 3 red attributes aon your vest and 2 blue mods are inside of it then you get +3 red points and +2 blue points, no matter how high the atribute is
    and the amount of points when observing others is severly bugged, dont trust it
    and in the end everybody with all mod slots filled has ~20 points, i am using a 5/12/2 build, but if you have a severly badly built 15/4/0 i still do more then twice the dmg you do, but with a properly built very offensive built you may do twice the dmg i do, but you are less resilient then me

    it is extremly dependent on the quality and composition of the gear and talants, and not the amount of colored points
