See this clip where a Twitch streamer used Corrosive touch on an Cursed Knight of Duna, which restored his physical armor, instead of damage it.
The cursed knight had Cursed, Burning, Poisoned, Blinded, and Guardian Angel.

Is this a bug?

It did damage his armor; it went from 946 down to 846, and that was about half the amount it should've done because he was protected by Guardian Angel. It's just that his maximum armor went down too (1791-1194) so the percentage armor actually went up, and it looked like his armor was increased.

Thx for pointing out that the maximum armor changed as well. It's really misleading.

Why would the maximum armor get reduced by 600 ? That's not part of the spell.

Corrosive Touch causes Acid which cancels out with Fortified, so it brought his maximum physical armor back down to the default value.

That's another thing I missed. Thank you for clearing this up!
It's not a bug then. The moderators should feel free to remove this from the bugs section.

I'm quite happy for it to stay in case somebody wonders the same thing thing and happens upon it...
