Also, white is true damage. Think max hp type stuff that bypass resistance and armor.

Percentage health damage is not necessarily true damage.

I might be wrong. Just took a look at some of the mechanics. Both true damage and percent health damage are classified as "effect_damage", as opposed to the normal "physical_damage" or "special_damage".

Basically all % Health Damage is unmitigated by Defense.

They can still be reduced by Damage Reduction Unique effects though. Things like SK's Omi, GL Unique, etc.
