EDIT: it was will vaal molten shell, without it it's 71% reduction
And about paradoxica - I've run with prismatic eclipse and tabula high yellow maps, so yes, you don't need paradoxica to clear reds, just it's the best choice as an upgrade from mid-tier weapon. I don't like mid tier upgrades(I got my body armour as a replacement for tabula lol), so I straight up bought paradoxica and surrender at the same time.
And you don't need impale on paradoxica - we have 100% impale chance from tree and banner, it doesn't scale past 100%.

When you enter 5k damage as enemy damage ( a mid size slam ), the numbers go down a lot. But it is even worse - I don't think POB calculates the 40% increased physical damage take from Abyssus right.

When I deactivate Abyssus, phys. reduction goes from 47% to 45% (without Vaal MS). It should go way up, all that is considered is only the armor of Abyssus ignoring the 40% penalty.

As a double check, activating player cursed by Vulnerability doesn't reduce your phys. reduction, too.

So the real physical reduction is more at 10-20% against slams. But that's ok - when you wear an Abyssus you have to block or manually evade all big slams. With the sudden death here and there in high maps, too. I had a season with Abyssus, it's definitly prone to sudden deaths. And Abyssus without max block - no thank you.
