Check the decay on both the base armour and the plate.
You will need to repeat this test as there is no one mob that delivers 100% impact at less than or equal value to the 5B or even 8A max impact protection. Unfortunately sweating chirpies makes them run off not attack. 
Until you have done this a few times and see if the base armour decays every single time you can then say the base armour decays at least the minimal decay even if the plate sucks up mose of the dmg. |
I tested this about 8 times. I could also notice when the mob hit less then 9 damage. In that case, both pixie and 5b had exactly the same decay.
I had it with putting fruit into the TT for now
So if you want more accurate data, I am affraid you will have to test yourself.
