How armor works in AL

[colestros]

Im curious about the whole armor system in arcane legends. People say that in pocket legends its just
(dmg - armor= receiving damage)
im guessing theres a thread or something somewhere in this forum that explains it but i just cant find it! -.-;;

(Im mainly curious because im trying to decide whether to use galeforce instead of shield for my sorc. To figure out whether or not the 50percent armor buff is great or not that good. Plus it seems like having another damage skill could come in handy.)

The dev's have not come out and said the exact formula, but they have confirmed that armor reduces DMG by a percentage; thus it is completely unlike PL.

As a matter of fact, many of the facets of this game are unlike what we have learned from PL.

I would be curious to see if anyone has a defensible formula for how armor works in this game, because it is definitely not DMG - Armor = Received Damage.
