    EAD Bugged?

    Hey, I've got 56% enemy armor damage now and there is a very noticeable difference in damage I take from NPC's as to when I only had 36 - 44% EAM. It's weird but I've noticed a pretty drastic change. Maybe they(massive) buffed the damage output from NPC's last patch.

    My personal armor mitigation is 55%. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced similar to this? I'm wondering if it's a bug similar to the 'Reckless' talent on the chest piece.

    EAD doesn't make your character tougher. It makes you hit harder.

    Devil, you have the concept backward. EAD is the additional damage you do to enemies who have active armor. It stops when the armor bar disappears. Damage mitigation is what you have as a fractional reduction of incoming damage. This changes as you advance in World Tier. Have you fought Komodo yet? Afaik, he does the most damage to the player for each second that you are exposed.
