I have experience with armour in the past.
Everyone thinks armour is bad. The reason is because they don't have enough of it, They are thinking too small. You gotta have 50k minimum passive armour without buffs. People think 10k is allot some think 20k is allot, its not. 50k armour will turn a 5k hit into a 500 damage hit.
450000 armour will turn 5000damage hit into a 500damage hit
To prevent 90% of damage, you need armour 90 times the damage (e.g. 9000 armour for 100 damage)

damage reduction/endurance charges
physical damage taken as elemental damage
