| Jan 3, 2013 at 7:35 | comment | added | pleinolijf | You're correct. Apparently, the wiki article has changed since my post, and now contains a clear formula to calculate direct damage. I'll update my answer. | |

Summarized the wiki article.

| Aug 29, 2012 at 6:08 | comment | added | pleinolijf | I understand that, but I either give a simplistic answer like my above comment, not explaining it in detail, or either I give the complete answer, which basically would be copying the wiki article. It's not as simple as the example the OP states, as there are some extra factors that come into play, like the Toughness attribute and the type of damage (whether it is armor ignoring or not). | |

| Aug 28, 2012 at 20:29 | comment | added | bwarner | So basically it just says that armor reduces damage but doesn't give any details? In that case, it doesn't really answer the question at all. | |
| Aug 28, 2012 at 20:25 | comment | added | pleinolijf | Armor is equal to Defense plus Toughness attribute, and will determine how much incoming damage will be reduced. (source: wiki; no harm in doing a bit of reading for yourself) | |
| Aug 28, 2012 at 20:22 | comment | added | bwarner | Could you include a summary of the part that answers the question, so that we don't need to dig through the whole page to find it? | |
