How does this stone golem elementalist build have 76% physical damage reduction? https://pastebin.com/KNUt0ABE

I'm following Von Vikton's stone golem elementalist build, and I see I get around 400% increased buff effects from passive skill tree, but considering chaos golem only gives around 5% physical damage reduction, 5% multiplied by 400% is only 20%. How does the build get phys dmg reduction all the way upto 76%?

Because it has 19k Armour.
Keep in mind that Armour loses effectiveness the larger the hit is.
He got 76% phys dmg mitigation versus hits that do 1 damage which is what the base is.

But if you increase the damage of the phys hit to something like say, a 15k slam the phys dmg mitigation drops down to 39%:

His build is actually VERY squishy, don't get tricked by the 76% phys number. When playing the game he got kinda little phys dmg mitigation and almost no elemental dmg mitigation which is why his EHP is so low.

ic, thanks for the tips! :)
Personally as your still very low level, I'd jump ship and look at another guide, kay has alot of well planned builds and deads cold conversion summoner is very good.
