If your armor doesn't protect against a damage type, it doesn't decay. I had a situation once where i
thought the armor would decay if the plate on it did protect (even though the armor didn't) but i haven't tested that since then and it was a long time ago and i was probably wrong anyway.
AlphaGeek: While i agree in principle with what you're saying, we have the advantage of context here (
MA and other
EU systems) as well as the knowledge that in software design and in software execution, more complexity is more work, and therefore we can probably apply Occam's razor. That said, if treating the armor decay system as a black box gives us almost identical results each time, we don't really care what's inside -- or whether the cat is alive, dead, or undead.
Mmmm...mixed metaphors.
