I must say I like the new hero attributes design, it shows everything plainly at a glance, and you can build your character with more understanding.

However, the only attribute I’d like a bit more clarified is the armor amount. It says in its description that it reduces the damage you receive, but by what amount. All other attributes can be easily identified, either in the amount given or in skill descriptions. The only attribute that leaves its designs to your imagination is armor.

It would be useful to display just how much damage your toughness build is mitigating.

You can find formula on wiki and do math yourself. It cant be just displayed since i beleve one of factors in formula is attack power, which you cant know untill you are attacked.

All you need to know is that if you double your toughness, you take half the damage you used to.

The formula doesn’t work with a percentage mitigation style tooltip.
