Armor
Armor will absorb incoming physical damage, reducing the damage received in a flat exchange. If you have 3 Armor and are hit with 5 damage, you will lose 2 health. Present in all the familiar forms, medium and heavy armor will provide you with that extra damage mitigation which can make or break your combat encounter.
Defensive Abilities
Defensive Abilities are just that, they defend. Found in archetype’s Skill Trees (such as the Fighter’s Deflect or the Bard’s Sanctuary Score) and through Trinket items (like the Deployable Barricade). These Abilities can be used to mitigate incoming damage. Always handy in a pinch.
