Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but wouldn't 30-40% be less effective than people think? With everything vulnerable to lightsaber damage you negate the AP2 on the sabers. If you make something 40% resistant to saber damage with AR1, you get the AP2 effect coming back in. Then again, are sabers going to continue to have AP2?

100 dmg from a saber vs. No cortosis layer = 100 dmg

100 dmg from a saber vs. AR1 40% layer = 75 dmg

Considering that 40% would only come from triple layering and the corresponding wicked encumbrance, it seems kinda blah. I'd also assume that 40% from 3 layers (like what you get with stun) will take a step back towards 20% which means 100 dmg vs. that layer will be 100 dmg....no point
