I can say this about innate armor.
As a TKM/PIKE and naked I take 165 damage from a brain.
As a MS/PIKE and naked I take 130 damage from a brain.
Alot of people say it works but I go buy the numbers and they say it dosnt.

I hope they will fix this soon because TKM is my only combat profession so I can't use any other armor
COB is quite useless atm too

There's a box in your options that will enable Verbose Chat. With this on, you'll be able to see if your TIA is working or not. I personally haven't had a problem with either my TIA, or CoB.

I'm TKM/Pikes (doc 4000) and i've been trying numerous different template styles (TKM + any other profession) before respec ends. I would say 90% of the time, CoB works for me. As for TIA ...i'm not sure if it's working 100% of the time.
A lvl 84 Nightsister Sentinel/Stalker hits me for about 82 points with CoB, I can usually solo 2, maybe 3 at a time.
ONElvl 83 Rancor hits me for about 400 points with CoB ...half of my health is gone within 5 seconds.
I'm not quite sure what to make of that. With the damage multipliers, shouldn't a lvl 84 hit harder than a lvl 83 ?

I'm only a TK Novice at the moment so can't test this properlybut I think I remember reading a post a week or 2 ago which said something about having toequip armour and then remove it for the innate armour to kick in. I know this sounds daft but it might beworth giving it a shot?

I remember that post too, but the problem is that I cannot equip any kind of armor.

Current CoB system is a serious proplem in PvP. You can't afford to stand still 10-15s that it takes to reapply CoB. Especially when you are fighting against a ranged opponent.

My temp is MS/TKM with full fs tree of melee defense. i dont wear any armor and still do well as a tank/damage dealer. Creatures tend to miss me a lot more since i went tkm.

I can tell you this... My other character is a MBH, and I use Duelist stance, which is a way lower bonus than COB, and wear top notch armor. (8000 kinetic) I take alot less damage with him than with my TKM/MS chracter. Its sad that my "tank" melee character cannot hang with my ranged character. /shake head
I think the innate armor works, but it is weak and almost worthless.

How can it be working?
If im naked and fighting as a TKM/PIKE vs. being naked and fighting as a MS/Pike then the Innate armor should make me take far less damage then with theMS/PIKe but it dosnt. As anaked MS/PIKE Itake 35 points less damage in the cave then I do as a TKM/PIKE.
Plus If i put on my armor that I can use as a MS/PIKE then it just absolutly blows away TK's Innate. With armor i drop to 63 points of damage taken. And dont say you need to use COB. It has nothing to do with innate armor. Besides I can use my TKM COB(I decided to go MS/TKM for the healing/Power boost)instead of the MSCOB and armor anddrop to about 30 points of damage. TKMI only drop to 90 points of damage taken.
Go repsec like I did.Fight the same thing naked with two differnt skills ans see for yourself. I ant making this up.
There is no way it can be working.

innate isn't weak it just isn't working right for some people - it has 6000 protection on everything at TKM - i was swordsman wearing armor with 5500 protection on everything than dropped swordsman for more tk during respec and got to 4443 tk and was only being hit for 1 more damage from the same thing than i was being hit for with the armor - and you still get a major innate armor boost at TKM
