Iron Reflexes

Iron Reflexes is a Keystone Passive skill that removes all evasion rating and converts it to armour rating. However, the increased evasion rating bonus from Dexterity is not applied.

Mechanics

Conversion Formulae

The final armour is calculated with the following formula:

Final Armour = Base Evasion * ( 1 + % increased Evasion Rating + % increased Armour + %increased Evasion Rating and Armour )
             + Base Armour  * ( 1 + % increased Armour                                                     + % increased Evasion Rating and Armour ) 

Bravery (which grants % increased Evasion Rating and Armour) and similar passive skills do not get included into % increased Evasion Rating nor % increased Armour. These are only included into % increased Evasion Rating and Armour.

% increased Evasion Rating does not get included into % increased Evasion Rating and Armour.

% increased Armour does not get included into % increased Evasion Rating and Armour.

Example

1000 Armour

1000 Evasion Rating

80% increased Armour from Armour and Steel Skin passive skills

40% increased Evasion Rating from Evasion passive skills

24% increased Evasion Rating and Armour from the Bravery passive

Final Armour = 1000 * ( 1 + 80% + 40% + 24% ) + 1000 * ( 1 + 80% + 24% ) 
Final Armour = 1000 * ( 1 + 0.80 + 0.40 + 0.24 ) + 1000 * ( 1 + 0.80 + 0.24 ) 
Final Armour = 1000 * 2.44 + 1000 * 2.04
Final Armour = 2440 + 2040
Final Armour = 4480
