Okay, you know how insinias ONLY affect the armor that its on, like a +10 armor insignia only works if THATS the armor piece that got hit.

If that makes sense...Does anyone know the percentage chance of each armor piece to get hit with an attack/spell/whatever.

Thanks

I didnt know what to type in the forum to look for something like this, I also dont know what to type in Wiki to find something like this, so I apologize if this exists.

If you still can't find it, it is:

3/8 for the chest piece
2/8 on the legs
1/8 on the head, hands, and feet

To get the percentages, just use your calculator. I find it easier to remember the fractions.

EDIT:

This is why if you have for example a stonefist insignia, you put it on the feet hands or head, and put armor buffs on the other 4 pieces of armor. You will also notice that for example survivor insignias have different values based on which armor piece it is put on. This is to reflect the "value" of the insignia slot on that piece of armor, eg putting a survivor rune as opposed to armor rune on the chest piece "costs" more than putting it on the feet, since the chest gets hit more often.
