my damage reduction is all over the place. My base is always 10.2 which is correct. I have a shield that toggles to boost dmg reduction which puts it at 25%. I have a perk on my armor that increases it by 13% when under 30% hp. When I get under 30% it jumps to anywhere from 19% to 26%.

Magic Shield's damage reduction is based on how much mana your currently have and not based on max mana alone. That is to say, that if you can always maintain a full mana and have 30% or less current health, then you should be getting additional damage reduction with your 25%. But if those two condition are not met, it means you will surely get less than 25%. So, what I'm saying is that, maybe not all conditions are met and maybe reason why you get a fluctuating percentage of your current total damage reduction?
Got it. I was misinterpreting what was meant by current. I was thinking current max, as opposed to current remaining.
