Armor damage reduction table ?

from Demigod Forums

First when I bought Ashkandar it looked ok, doing around 370 damage ( level 15 Regulus ). About a minute later I was doing around 210 vs a diff opp, then the game ended.

Enemy got more Armor? Different targets? Angelic Fury?

not Angelic Fury, never picked it. I was shooting a TB at the end iirc. Maybe he had an artifact too. How much armor does it take to almost halve the damage ?

A table?  You want a formula really.  Tyo psoted the formula before, but search doesn't work.

 

Just experiment and look. 1500 armor will give you like 30% reduction, while 1500 more only like 15% more.

this is the formula

The formula for mitigation on armor is: Mitigation = (Armor*0.0004)/(1+(Armor*0.0004))*100

Solving for 75% ...

75 = AX / (1+AX) * 100

0.75 = AX / (1+AX)

0.75(1+AX) = AX

0.75 + 0.75 AX = AX

0.75 = AX - 0.75 AX

0.75 = 0.25AX

0.75/0.25X = A = 0.75/(0.0004*(.25)) = 7500

You can mitigate 50% for under 10k gold, pretty sure.

You can I believe, but it'll use a lot of slots.  It's not exactly useful to do over 35%-40% for cheaper and less slots

Depends - can be worth it against a Fury Reg or Rage UB.  (No one uses Rage UB these days though.  That line might need a buff.)
