Again newbish answer. All we know that armour isnt reduct magic dmg.
OP do some research on how armor works in this game. Side note, the DR stat should be removed on the char stat gui. Otherwise, ignore it, it is more misleading than anything. There is no replacement for life(es) in this game. The defensive stats are effective at what they do, but they don't replace life the way OP is thinking.

It is easy to calculation. The best or armour come from chest.
Calculate mine 2200 armour chest - i am 17k amour with it and 4k life. And calculate ohter 1k, 100life amour, i am 12k amour and 4500 life with it.
SO?


You are right, it is easy to calculate: armour/(armour+12*damage). Now plug in some values for damage and your armour there to get a good idea of what's actually happening.


^ the first intelligent post in this thread, OP is a retard


if you get hit for 4k damage with 14k armor it looks like this:

actual damage reduction = 14k/(14k+12*4k)

actual damage reduction = 22.58%

NOT 50%!

your character sheet is NOT an accurate representation of damage reduction because your armor is LESS effective the bigger the hit is.

so vaal/kole will still one shot you no matter how much armor you stack, not to mention that it does jack squat against any form of elemental damage...

Wait, am I being trolled here? If so 10/10.

Otherwise, i don't need to do tests. GGG has stated how armor works and in the last year of me playing I have seen nothing to make me think it works different than stated. Armor is confusing, as it has clearly confused you. Also, i did not use any cliches in what I wrote*.

Bullshit. Game menu stats is properly. Idk from where u take these formulas but they are wrong.
And Kole doestn kill me on shot. I kill him.
Sometimes, just sometimes, it's very amusing to read through those troll-threads.
Sorry Exile, but your loot is in another dungeon!

its a big difference if u also have max black all.. then armor is just nice but not important.. 4k + some endurance charges is enough to do 77maps with no problem..

and yes u are right and wrong, and think u are right but are wrong or u are rigth that u are wrong.. well who cares ;)... like lil kids arguing if the moon is made of cheese or bacon ;)... "hmmm bacon"
