Does 50% damage reduction due to armor mean the same thing on Nebit as Bossk?

My Nebit stat-wise is a bit beefy, but he still goes down in a few hits against attacks that I don't think should be hurting that much. Is there a hidden stat multiplier that I am unaware, or do their final armor ratings mean the same thing?
  • It depends on who the attackers are. If both characters have 50% armor, they will mitigate that much damage without taking armor penetration into account. Different attackers can have different armor penetration, so the final mitigation isn't always the same. If it's a special damage attack, you'd go off of resistance instead.

    But in terms of Bossk specifically, he has +50% defense while taunting from his unique, and his lead gives bounty hunters another 100% while at full health. 50% armor is about 638 flat. So another 150% is 1595. This is about 71.4% mitigation before armor penetration is taken into account.

    So no, Bossk and Nebit are not the same.
  • Also, if this is your Nebit, I would not call him anywhere near beefy: https://swgoh.gg/p/335998188/characters/chief-nebit

    He has 34,000 health and protection. That's only two or three hits even with 45% armor.

    I am working him up. My roster is developing nicely. I do fear the 2.5 million GP mark that I am 60000 GP from. I was finally taking 1st in some GAC
