Amour Cap

Post#1 » Wed Mar 22, 2017 2:51 am

Is there a table anywhere that lists the armour cap for each level, or is there a formula to work it out please.
Did a search but litteraly hundreds of references for the word armour.

You can stack your armor as high as you want, but the max. effective mitigation is 75%. Stacking armor over that value helps to keep that mitigation, even after armor debuffs and stuff.
Pretty much always afk or tabbed out.

I just had my armour at 85.6%... However, lets assume thats just a bug typo and its 75%.
What i'm looking for is what amrour amount I need at each level to get that 75% because I hate this diminishing returns system where every time I level I get weaker.

I want to know what I need to work towards gear wise. Kinda important as a tank.

armor mitigation cap is 75%
WS have armor penetration effect
there are armor debuff skills
100% - 10% from WS = 90% -> 75%
100% - 20% from WS = 80% -> 75%
100% - 30% from WS = 70% -> 70%
and armor debuff will reduce that 100% number to 70% or something
so your 85.6% will be reduced around 4~50%

you can aim 100% for melee mitigation which will guarantee 50~70% but magic damage will kill you
find balance between armor and toughness
4k armor is average for t4 tank i think
SM8, SW8, AM8, WL7, KoBS5, BW5, WP8, WH7, IB7, Eng5, RP5, SL6
BG8, Sorc8, DoK8, WE7, Chs8, Mg8, Ze7, Mara8, BO6, SH7, Shm5, Chop4

You get weaker cause there is a bolster in PvP ehich increases the stats of lower lvl chars to make them able to compete. How strong that bolster is depends on the level of your char and your gear. That means when you level up but your gear stays the same you'll become weaker.
