were discussing it, and i cant seem to work out why, or when it decides to say "tainted"
maybe this is where we are losing the overall amount of principle points, where it says the "attacker LOSES principle points"
we thinking that this tainted value might also be decided upon the drain value( seems to be up to 25% but not allways 25%) which might explain how its not just a 1 for 1 swap

'Tainted' appears when the current attacker for the round has more value of the principle than the defender. What happens is that the ability backfires, and instead of draining principles, the attacker will actually lose principles. [s]Lose means that the enemy will not gain it...[/s]
Upon closer inspection, it appears that if the difference between target principle of the two players is less than 1, nothing is drained, all lost. So, based on the log I read, I'm not sure if the enemy will gain the principle lost by being tainted...
