Iron warrior damage reduction

Confused about damage reduction. When does damage reduction happen, when u have barrier while using iron skin?

There is a little yellow gauge over the skill on your bar when you use it you can see. I think this is the DR bonus similar to how frenzy works

It works best if you press it when you’re almost dead. Thats the pinnacle of power.

Yeah it is really weird. Conceited makes you want to pop Iron Skin proactively, but in doing so, it does not last long due to Barrier value and you lose situational use of Unstoppable/Barrier.

All I know is that Iron Warrior Aspect needs to be the Skill Enhancement to Iron Skin and the Skill should be based on Max HP not missing Base.

Another useless skill… if only it based on max hp and giving like 25-50% barrier from max hp it’s still more useful than waiting for our hp to go down first
