Hi everyone,

Could someone please clarify the relationship between the Defence stat and the Armour stat??? I've just been experimenting with a couple of different pieces of armour and the figures just don't seem to add up...

Here's and example - I've got the belt from the Dragon Armour and it has the following mods

Armour 200

+4 Strength
+4 Agility
+4 Inteligence
+4 Defence

+ various resistences...

By equiping this I end up with the following stats: Defence 78 - Armour 414

Another piece that I have is the "Metal Belt" with the following mods

Armour 220

+2 Strength
+2 Defence
+40 Vitality
+2 Sight

When I equip this I end up with: Defence 73 - Armour 415.

Another example is I had two pieces of armour - one had a higher "Armour" rating but the other had a Defence bonus... When I equiped the one with the Defence bonus, the Armour rating went down (as expected), but my Defence stat stayed the same...

Is there a direct relationship between Armour and Defence? What's better - higher Def or higher Armour? Does it really matter in the scheme of things or am I just making a point about nothing... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/question.gif" alt="" />

Would appreciate any thoughts on this...
