I have a couple questions (not sure if anyone knows):

1. Does Ascalon set or Knight's set only reduces the damage for that part of the body or does it affect the person as a whole (meaning that you only need 1 piece of the set equipped for it to take effect)?

2. How much damage is reduced by these sets (I heard it was -2, equivalent to a Major Absorption Rune)

3. Does Absorption runes apply to the entire character or only to the armor piece that it is attached to?

4. Does Absorption runes stack with Ascalon/Knight's set (Meaning instead of having -2 damage with the armor sets, you'll have -4 with Major or -5 with Superior)?

I kinda had a question about Ascalon Armor as well. As an 8 W/R, I chose to opt for the lower AC Ascalon Armor with Damage Absorption over higher-armor Ringmail. What's the actual difference here? What does Damage Absorption do?

Amour dmg reduction is locational
Armours inate abilities always stack with runes (only effects from the same source do not stack.. i.e rune on rune wont)
No one knows it Rune dmg reduction is locaitonal or all over..... but i would suggest it is also locaitonal
