also, exalibur currently does 57 damage base, the mimic has 30 defense, yet we can clearly see that a non crit hit does 70, 67, 67, 68 damage (an average of 68)! Taking into account that the hollowed set the player is wearing will grant 17% extra melee damage, that would approximately be 67 damage, however this would be only true to an enemy with no defense and the mimic has 30! That would mean either the hollowed armor has some new damage buff or the mimic was nerfed or the exalibur was buffed. (Maybe all of them?)
am I overthinking this?
If they're going though and rebalancing more or less everything, then you can't really know anything about the defense, Hp, damage, or other stats of any of this stuff. Maybe Excalibur does more damage, maybe Mimics have less defense, maybe they completely changed the way defense works entirely.
