A lot of calculations gave fractions/floating point numbers as a result. Note that I by no means claim that armor removes a linear amount of damage nor that it doesn't scale with your damage, level. 35).ДЇrom this I concluded the damage decrease done by the dummies armor for this range of damage is between 2 and 4. I then equiped my high dps claw which gave me 39 - 39 weapon damage and got hits between 34 and 36 (avg. Removing 1 claw gave me 12 - 18 weapon damage and hits between 9 and 16. When I hit the dummy with my regular claws (13 - 19 weapon damage) I had hits variating between 10 and 17. Since all the damage in my tests was Physical Damage, we can focus only on physical armor, but there's no way of knowing the armor of your enemy as far as I know. In Torchlight 2, every damage you do is decreased by an amount based on the armor value of your enemy.

I hit either 34, 35 or 36 while i would have expected to hit 35 all the time. I used no offhand and proceeded to hit (regular attack) the dummy like a madman. I tested this with a 45 dps claw (36 physical damage every 0.8s) which gave me a weapon damage of 39-39. This is however not the case, and thus all results by me (and others) will be subject to 'random' fluctuations. Secondly, this was an interesting thing to test and I'll have to explain a few things/assumptions before I get on with the more related results:ДЄssuming a constant environment I would assume a constant damage result. Critical hits and fumbled attacks are completely excluded from every calculation aswell as attacks from both claws at the same time. First, the following tests have all been done with a Level 2 Berserker with no skillpoints or stat points invested on the dummy in the Estherian Enclave.
