Fixed several armour modifiers not affecting armour against projectile hits, or affecting it incorrectly. This included all armour granted by body armours.

Wait, what was the issue? How problematic was this for Armour players? Will the fixes have a meaningful impact on the survivability of those that main Armour?

German as a native language is like 10th in the world for usage. Russian, English and Portuguese are all higher. So only 6 more to go before German.

The issue was ("is", for two more days), that Armour Rating from your chestpiece did not work at all against Projectile Damage, most notably.

This is a huge fix, especially for those of us who were exclusively wearing "The Brass Dome Gladiator Plate", and using an armor-centric build. Quite a few Exiles suffered meaningless deaths during this league, notably because of this chest piece bug. I'm really glad to see it finally fixed.

I have noticed that I have lower armor against projectiles despite the fact that I wear Titicus' Span (which is supposed to give you extra armor against projectile attacks). I'm betting that it's the same type of issue.

On a related note, is Titicus' Span also fixed in this iteration? The patch notes say only say "body armors" :(
