Armor reduction conflict - qhira

General Discussion
1

I put this here because its not really a bug, but more of a discrepancy… so with the new patch, one of qhira’s talents (lvl 13 or 16, not sure) gives a -35% armor reduction. And thats cool, assuming it doesnt unbalance things. But every so often on the loading screens, youll see a tip that says, “+75 armor max, -25 armor minimum”. Im not suggesting qhira should be patched - i appreciate the balancing efforts - i just want the information in that tip to line up with the mechanics in the game. My assumption is that since microsoft’s takeover, maybe they arent aware of the OG dev’s intent with armor reduction - who really knows? As far as i know, this is the ONLY talent in the game that provides armor reduction beyond the supposed -25 minimum.

I will edit later to clarify the talent tier, and my apologies if this has been previously mentioned.

Happy Gaming.

I think its just a tip to tell you can bring someones armor up or down with specific spells. It has nothing to do about Qhira’s buff.

I think everyone forgot about the loading screen tops sense hammer can also reduce peoples armor below 25 : p

Chromie does up to -50 spell armor, Sgt Hammer to to -50 armor, Cursed hollow core mechanic does -75 armor.
The tooltip is just not up to date, but good catch.

+75 armor is consistent but the the negative one has always been misleading for quite a few years.
