There isn't any armor in the game that gives you armor absorption. Neither is there any piece of armor that gives damage absorption.

Maybe you mean armor protection? It increases your amor rating, enabling your armor to potentially absorb more damage.

I do wonder what Armor absorption means though - you get it with the Defensive skill Armor Handling, as well as in the negative form with RoT.

Armor absorbs 66% of all incoming Physical damage, that's Armor Absorption...

So, if you got like +100% armor absorption you would get 66 x 2 = 132% absorption of physical damage, meaning that if you got a high armor only extremely painful physical hits are gonna hurt you?

I guess so. Too bad that the only thing that increases your armor absorption is Armor Handling.

Well, just to be sure, does +% add to the 66%, like 66%+20=86, or does it increase the percentage, like 66+20%=79ish?
