This figure is a key source of damage mitigation in Diablo 3 and has a major effect on a character's survival ability. These add up with Strength and may be modified by various skills and passives to arrive at a total Armor value which grants a substantial damage reduction. This design choice forced the developers to make monsters hit for very high damage since they so seldom connected, which lead to a boom or bust sort of combat.ĭiablo 3 uses the resistance-like form of Armor to create a steady flow of damage that players can learn to mitigate with more Armor, higher hit points, blocking, life regeneration, life on hit/life leech, or other options.Īrmor Damage Mitigation Įvery piece of armor (equipment) has an Armor value in Diablo III.
This is not how armor (defense) worked in Diablo 2 in that game higher armor worked against monster to/hit and made it less likely that they would strike your character with an attack.
Higher Armor means that more of the damage from attacks is absorbed or mitigated. The armor stat works much like a resistance in Diablo 3.
