Problem is dodge can also dodge elemental projectiles but armor does nothing against that. Mage can take CI and ignore any chaos damage then just MOM or ES tank since poe2 has pathetic amount of character HP anyways. Armor is by far the worst type of defense that has huge diminishing return and is only active in 20% of the content.

Sure but I explained the general idea behind all defence types in the game to the OP. If Armor loses to other sources in comparison, then thats just down to Armor number buffing. Remember in PoE 1 lot of mage builds had to take the Armour flask with them or otherwise tiny angry machinegun monsters would turn them into pin-cushions.
