where boots not leggings..also if you wear leggings do not wear shoes...seems like when i wore legging by themselves everything was fine when i put shoes on i got hit....but wearing boots with pants seems fine i solo everything from the queen to elders,krayts and below...helm,gloves,chest,boots although the boots and gloves do decay faster .

Guys, this is incredible!! You've just solved the mystery for me!

The very day I started getting full dmg hits on Action through the 4 pieces of armor was the day I started wearing a skirt, as I'm working towards TKM and it looked pretty neat. It's also worth noting, that this is not only a hole, for I discovered something else last night. Was fighting Sharnaffs again, and had 3 on me at once, I was at half my action bar when all of a sudden I got incapped (I don't doctor buff). In about 6 seconds all 3 hit me with this 'hole', but the issue is that all 3had intimidate2 on them and were also blinded and stunned!! On average they were doing 40-60 dmg per hit before armor reductions, but when they hit the 'hole' through the skirt, I was receiving over 200 dmg points, hence the incap!

Bit of a shame as I like the look with the black/red skirt and black composite, but it's not really practicable considering the nature of the hole that I discussed above. It could really be classed as a bug since the full dmg gets past intimidate2.

Another bit of information for you all... my link in the original post says that dmg reduction of armor is worked out according to how many bits you've got covering that area i.e. with legs, if you only wear 80% effective boots without leggings you receive the 50% reduction for Armor Rating 1 but only 33% of the 80% effectivess because the pants count for the other 66%. Well this theory proved incorrect for me, as my boots got hit by the sharnaffs once for 84 dmg points, 76 of which was soaked up by my boots, which works out as 80% effectiveness when you do the math (and I wasn't wearing leggings).

Continue to discuss if any of you have any other interesting experiences as I've already learnt a lot from your feedback, thanks all!

I always wore a 4 piece suit until recently and started to have problems. I had a AA that Iput on my left bracer which is now at 0 condition. I can solo elders but every 5th or 6th hit does around 400-500 dmg to me. Can that bracer be the problem?

Try a second bracer and no gloves, should do the job of arm armour, dont wear any type of clothing gloves though as this will cause an armour hole the way a skirt does to action.

See if that helps. I solo'd a gorax with2 bracers and no gloves (gloves broke) and he never hit me past my armour.

So do you have to wear 4 pieces...I tried just using a chest piece and gloves, that should cover all of my health pool, but it doesn't.

Use an Anti-Decay Kit, or try to repair it.

0 health means broken, kaput... is no more... has ceased to exist...

Stick on a second bracer and a pair of gloves, theproblem is you will get hit on that 0 health bracer sometimes, just from the fact that you are wearing it, and will sustain full damage.

Not much you can do about that, bar sticking on biceps as well to give less of a chance that that piece will get hit.

"but when they hit the 'hole' through the skirt, I was receiving over 200 dmg points, hence the incap!"

this still seems like a joke to me

i dont know much about this but i tried with full comp and4 pieces and found full armor more effective
