armor calculation formula

[69stehend]

i guess this has been asked before allready but i couldnt find any answer (neither here nor on google)
so, whats the formula that turns the armor amount into the percentage value? (including the parameters from gameplay constants)

 

[ap0calypse]

I believe it was

( Constant * Armor ) / (Constant * Armor + 1 )​

The constant is 0.06 by default.

So at 18 armor, it would be ( 1.08 / 2.08 ), or 0.519 (which is 51.9%).

Yep, and for negative armor this formula is used:

Damage Increase = 1 - (1 - 0.06) ^ (-armor)

While the damage increase is capped at -20 armor.
As ap0calypse said, the default constant of 0.06 can be modified.
