Armor Reduction Question

Jorvag_Black_Briar · September 2014

Hi guys,
I'm writing here because I did not find an answer about my concern.
My question is:

The Weapon 'Glyph of Crushing' (which reduce Target Armor by X for Y seconds) can work toghether with my ability 'Surprise Attack' (which reduce Target Armor by 40%)?

Thanks

Yeah they will stack but the effectiveness of the stack depends on the order you do it in.
Say your glyph is for reduce enemy armor by 500 and you face an enemy who has 2000 armor, If you use Surprise Attack first then proc the glyph your enemy has 700 armor remaining,if you proc the glyph then use surprise attack your enemy has 900 armor remaining.
Basically you want to use Surprise attack first because it reduces armor by a percent, while the glyph has a set value of armor reduction.

That's good to now, because I use always Surprise Attack as an opener if stealth is viable in the contest

Thanks!

tested those glyphs on AD friends, no difference in dmg or in their actual stat
