(MOB damage is from entropedia)



Stab 50%, Impact 50%
Armax Bull, Armax Cow, Hiryuu, Kingfisher


Armour:
45.5 Rutuba (L)
44.8 Sentinel
41.5 Necromancer (L)
41.5 Chronicle
37.5 Lich (L)
37.0 Supremacy

How did you arrive at your protection for combined damage types? Chronicle has 13 impact and 70 stab, for total stab/imp protection up to 83. Maybe it's just a typo from Necromancer above it.

The actual protection an armor gives against combined damage types is quite dependent on the maturity of the mob doing the damage, as shown in this chart produced on entropedia for Chronicle -v- Armax:

Chronicle Armor	Max	Damage	
		Damage	Taken	Protection
Arm Bul	Young	52	13	39
	Mature	63	18.5	44.5
	Old	75	24.5	50.5
	Provi	83	28.5	54.5
	Guard	89	31.5	57.5
	Domi	115	44.5	70.5
	Alpha	133	53.5	79.5
Arm Cow	Young	35	4.5	30.5
	Mature	39	6.5	32.5
	Old	49	11.5	37.5
	Provi	70	22	48
	Guard	79	26.5	52.5

(and yes, with EU down I have way too much time on my hands )

I have updated the original post with calculation method and other comments.
