lets say your enemy does 1000 dmg and your resistance makes you resist 10% of the damage, thats a 100 dmg resistance, so he does 900 dmg to you

with armor handling, a base % or a base # is chunked off the top before the resistance plays

so lets say he hits for 1000 dmg, but your armor handling automatically reduces it to 850, so when you do 10% of resistance, you only resist 85.

to me thats annoying b/c i resist less than before, even though i'm technically taking less damage... LAME!!

I do believe you got it reversed Ab!

Armor/helmet/belts are what makes you resist damage after a hit while your resistance lower the damage received.

So leveling armor handling should make you resist more with each level and not the other way around.

That or something is explained wrong in the skills.
