>>23576565Armor gives you a direct % damage reduction, how could that EVER be bad? IT's incredibly important against most bosses heaviest hitting attacks. Of course you want to manage not having a fat roll. The original argument posted is 100% correct, if Ame was wearing a medium armor set, not even heavy, she could consistantly tank 2 hits before needing to pot, that is complete fact
To illustrate this objective fact I am genuinely going to show you, left is Ame's current set, right is lyndel armor, but any "knight" armor has similar mit, look at the % difference. No black flame protection, no gimmick setups, no buffs.
