2. It doesn't matter where you put the rune, it'll stack with the armor. And you only need 1 piece of Knight's/Ascalon armor for the effect.

As for the "Set" to take, there is no "one" set. It's all preference!

Savio beating me again FTW. To add: Yeah, unless you like Aesthetics, don't buy the full set. You only need one for the effect, unless you just want to look cool.

It doesn't matter where you stick the rune. It reduces on a "whole scale" same as the armor does. Yes, you only need 1 piece. Hope this cleared it up.

Damage is calculated like so: You are dealt suchandsuch damage and THEN the reduce kicks in. It doesn't reduce by piece/hit. IT reduces on a whole.

Example: You are hit totally for 12 melee. It reduces that number, not if you'd be struck insuchansuch a location and reduce like that.

For armors i suggest All gladiadors except knights helm.

Knight's Helm doesn't have damage reduction (or at least it doesn't iirc), strangely enough, only the other pieces do, so I'd suggest gladiators with ascalon helm.
