Necro insignias

So if i equip 5 minion master insignias will i really have +75 armor when controlling just 5 minions???

or have +50 armor all the time with full tormentors and just take a shiiiitload of holy damage??

it doesnt seem right but it doesnt say non stacking...

I think the key to understand here is this:

"This bonus is not global and applies only to the armor piece equipped with the insignia."

If you have 5 minions you will have +15 armor on each piece of armor you place the insig.


On full tormentors remember this:

"This bonus is not global and applies only to the armor piece equipped with the insignia. The holy damage vulnerability is global and stacking."

non-stacking means that multiple runes can't be used (ie, you can't use two vigor runes to get +100 health). However, you can use 2 or 3 or 5 (whatever) tormentors at the same time (and thus, non-stacking)

You see, each time you are hit by a spell or attack, it hits your character on a certain armor piece. I think its 12.5% head, feet, or gloves, 25% legs, and 37.5% cheest. So the +armor only applies if the attack hits the piece of armor that has that insignia on it. ALL insignias are like this.

everytime you're attacked, it hits 1 piece of your armor
the chances of each armor being hit is:
1/8 head
3/8 body
1/8 arm
2/8 leggings
1/8 shoes

so if you have the insignia on every piece of your armor, you'll have +15 armor globally

the armor only adds to a specific part of your armor, the chest, legs, arms, or your head, so you have +15 armor per specific part of your armor but they don't add up. get it?

Haha, we have four people now saying the same thing. Time for a close?
