Does leech defense lower your opponents mage defense as well? That's all I need to know, thanks in advance!

It does but only 0.3 of what you'd expect. Leech magic is more effective at reducing mage defense. Leech both for the full effect.

1/3, not 3/10

The Defence skill plays a role in Magic combat: Defence against spells is measured as 30% of the target's Defence level and 70% of their Magic level.

 

Do you have a source for 1/3 instead of 3/10?

It seems that they came to the conclusion that it was 3/10 not 1/3 no? Grimy was erroneously adding +8.

He was adding +8 cuz that's what you're supposed to do.

The difference between 1/3 and 3/10 is 3%, is it that big of a deal?

It's the difference between being right and being wrong, which is a big deal.

So essentially leech defense only lowers mage def by 8.33%?

Considering this forum is all about asking questions and getting the right answer, yes.

It's also worth noting that neither leech curses work if you're not using the polypore staff.
