Hi I have a question about Sentinel armor specifically.
Before it was 100AL vs all dmg types(as long as req13 strength met)

Now it appears as 80 base and +20 vs physical
+20 vs elemental dmg)as long as req13 strength met)


Does this mean that all other dmg types are only affected at base 80AL?
Im speaking of light,holy,and dark dmg types or others that are not armor ignoring dmg?

please discuss

Holy. Damage. Doesn't. Ignore. Armor. Examples: Heart of Holy Flame makes dervishes do holy damage. Does it ignore armor? NO! Does Judges Insight ignore armor? NO! Holy and Light damage are the same.

As far as the extra armor "nerf" goes, you'd have to test it against light or chaos damage wands/staves I guess.

Yeah. This isn't World of Warcraft.

Yes, guildwiki.org has these types of damage as neither physical nor elemental - so you are correct: warrior armors are likely more subject to damage after the Insignia update because of the "loophole" that these damages fall into.

I'd like to see a test as well...
