*[[Armor]] - Decreases physical damage received. Increases your [[pet]]'s Armor. Armor is always present on equippable items, such as chest pieces and shields.

Some items have extra armor, which is indicated by the total amount of armor appearing in green on the tooltip. Rings, weapons, amulets and trinkets have no base armor, but may have bonus armor.

Represents chance to avoid an attack with a combination of dodge, parry, and chance to miss (which is a fixed percentage depending on the target). Avoidance should not be confused with [[mitigation]] which reduces damage from an attack.
