9. How do the bear form and dire bear form multipliers work exactly? What effect does Thick Hide have? The bear forms add the listed armor percentage to your base (i.e., 100%) armor percentage. So bear form gives you 100% + 180% = 280% total armor (i.e., take the armor on the item and multiply by 2.8 to find out how much armor you would have wearing that item in bear form). Dire bear form gives you 100% + 400% = 500% total armor (i.e., multiply by 5). Thick Hide applies to both your base armor and the bear armor. So bear form with 3/3 Thick Hide gives you 100% x 1.1 + 180% x 1.1 = 308% (multiply by 3.08). Dire bear form gives you 100% x 1.1 + 400% x 1.1 = 550% (multiply by 5.5).

10. Are armor kits multiplied by bear form? What about armor from agility? Or armor from Devotion Aura? Or Stoneshield Potions? Nope. A light armor kit is 8 armor even in dire bear form. 1 agility is still only 2 armor, even in dire bear form. Only armor actually on an equippable item gets multiplied.

11. What is the armor cap? The armor cap is the point at which you hit the maximum damage reduction from armor (75.00%). The cap depends on the level of mob you’re fighting:
    • For a level 70 mob, the armor cap is 31673
    • For a level 71 mob, the armor cap is 33075
    • For a level 72 mob, the armor cap is 34478

    • For a level 73 mob, the armor cap is 35880
