Save yourselves?

Won't SY give you only +armor instead of + because of armor stack?

If not could someone explain to me,i assume im not understanding armor stack or SY. Armor stacking works thusly.. Armor buffs only stack up to +25 AL. However, one skill can still give you any amount. For an example:

You use "Watch Yourself!", giving your whole party +20 armor. A few seconds later, you use "Save Yourselves!" Everyone gets +100 AL from that. Instead of having +120 AL, they only get +100 because SY! overrides WY! for its duration.

Anyway, whatever question you're trying to ask, I'm pretty sure the answer is that its because "Save Yourselves!" is a massive buff on one skill and stacking isn't involved...

single armor buff can go > 20 (25?) cap.

[card]Dragon Slash[/card]+[card]"For Great Justice!"[/card]+[card]Enduring Harmony[/card]+"Save Yourselves!"=30 seconds +100 armor for everyone. I use Air of Superiority in addition to this to get the recharge all skill bonus, which happens a decent amount of the time.

[skill]and why u need +100 armor?? You, as in the Warrior, do not need +100 armor. It doesn't affect you anyway, it gives it to the rest of your party. Perhaps they don't need it either, but if its possible to do and it makes things easier, people will (and should) use it.

Well, I havent realized that, gj.
Anyways, its still extremely useful, you can get the constant 100 armor with the above builds.

Edit: And what if it adds +100 armor and it divides between your 5 armor piece? That means +20 armor for each part, so as a caster you'll get 80 armor, and as a warrior you'll get 100 armor etc.. ?

P.S: sry for my english, hope you can understand what I meant ^^ When you get hit, each piece of armour you wear has a chance of getting hit. The body piece has the highest chance followed by leggings, the rest all have the smallest chance of getting hit. When you get hit, damage is based on the armour of that armour piece.

So to answer your question, a elementalist with base 60 armour will be treated as someone with 160 armour under SY. A base warrior would get 200 (216 with a shield) against physical and 180 (196 with a shield) against elemental

If I used Aura of Superiority and Save Yourselves!, would another attack skill be optimal, or Sunspear Rebirth Signet (or Signet of Return, whatever, just a rez?) There's no need to run ECharge on that bar.

This skill has a mistake in the description. It says "all other party members gain +100 armor" where the "+" is needless. Sy only sets your partys base armor to 100 which is the same +20 armor bonus for a warr as watch yoursef but it gives a +40 armor to casters. It would be a "not bad" skill if it would has a duration at least 10 secs or if it would really gives your party the +100 armor but its a crap now.
If you dont belive me you can test it easily.
The notes says in wiki "An armor bonus of 100 reduces elemental and physical damage (and Chaos, Dark and Holy damages inflicted by attacks) by 82.32%." which is very nice but far not true for this skill
This is a bug and it should be reported to anet. WTH!!! If what u say is true that means SY is garbage. Can someone else confirm this?

What im talking about is Watch Yourself much more better skill than SY now.
Thats a bug and SY should be fixed somehow.

Thats a bug and SY should be fixed somehow. Are you sure this is the case, SY! has always seemed very effective when i have used it, can you provide a link to where this was tested and shown to be bugged?
