When you’re at the damage reduction step, you have a chance to reduce the damage again by the same amount of reduction.

Say you have 80% damage reduction and 25% Double Mitigate:

- in 75% of the cases you reduce your damage by 80%.
- in 25% of the cases you reduce your damage by 1 - 20% \* 20% = 96%.

Your average damage reduction thus becomes:

- 1 - (75% \* 20% + 25% \* 20% \* 20%) = 84%.
