{{Iconbox|Armor|caption=no}}

Armor reduces the amount of damage you take by a percentage, increasing with the number of armor you have as seen below. Each point of armor increases the amount of damage it effectively takes to kill you by 6.66% per point.

The Tooltip for the Damage Reduction from Armor rounds to the nearest whole %. However, the actual damage reduction the game uses does not round.

While the amount of reduced x% damage per point goes down. The value of each % damage reduced goes up. The first point of armor grants you 6% reduced damage taken. However, going from 9 to 10 armor only makes your damage reduction go up by 2% -  From 38% to 40%. 

These 2% are exactly as powerful as the first 6%. And the effect of armor is linear, each point is as valuable as the point before. To better understand this, lets take some examples.

If you go from 0% reduction to 10%, that 10% reduction means you take 10% less damage. But if you have 80% damage reduction and get +10%, so you have 90% damage reduction, that +10% increase just halved the amount of damage you take.



For example, if you have 100 Max HP, and 0 armor it takes 100 damage to kill you. But if you have 5 armor, you reduce the damage by 25%, so now it takes ''100/0.75=133'' damage to kill you.

The amount of theoretical damage it takes to kill you is called Effective HP. 

Now if you have 15 Armor, you have 50% damage reduction, and that means your 100 max HP can now take 200 damage before dying. Three times the armor also means you can take three times the extra damage. And for every 100 Max HP you have, each 5 points of armor means you can take 33 damage before dying.

Said in another way, each point of armor increases your Effective HP by 6.66%.


If you have negative armor, the damage you take is instead increased by the percentage. So if you have -15 armor, where 15 armor would give 50% damage reduction, -15 armor means you takes 150% damage.



Negative armor, unlike positive amounts of armor, has diminishing returns.  Going from 50% damage reduction to 75% (thats going from 15 to 30 armor)  for positive armor means you halve the amount of damage you take from 50% to only taking 25%. But for negative armor, this means going from taking 150% to taking 175% damage, which just means you take a relative 16% more damage than before. 

As a result, when you play [[Ghost]], who starts with -100 armor,  (taking 187% damage) it doesn't make a notable difference if you gain +10 or -10 additional armor. As it just changes the damage you take to between 186% to 188%

== Formulas & Values ==

The formula used by the game for calculating Armor's damage reduction value is:

<pre> % Damage taken after armor  = 1 / ( 1 + ( ARMOR / 15 ) )
Tooltip for Damage Reduction % = ROUND( ( 1 - ( DmgReceived% ) ) * 100 )</pre>

It can be clearly seen here that it takes 15 armor to doubles your HP. And that the Tooltip rounds the number to the nearest %

This table shows various damage reduction values with different Armor stats.
