There was a post about this a while back when no one knew for sure, but I was checking now to see if anyone knows for sure how this works. I was talking to a lvl 20 warrior last night and he said there are no hit locations in this game, which I know to be blatantly wrong as seen in the game mechanics guide here. Anyhow, so does the "reduces damage from attacks" affect just the single piece or your body on a whole? If so, does anyone know by how much?

Would there be a bonus to having 6 pieces of ascalon armor that all reduce damage from attacks if just one piece gives you the bonus to your whole body?

Additionally, would it be a waste adding a rune of absorbtion to a piece of armor that already has "reduction from attacks?" Do they stack?

Thanks.
