Japanese and Taiwan wikis do a lot of testing like finding the complex formulas of how ship speed and melee attack/defense and land battle stats etc are calculated.

Elaborated testing showed this skill is equivalent to +10 armor.

or should i say its equivalent of adding 10 armour it actually reduces damage taken from cannon fire

Does the hidden armour value add ship acceleration during battle (like non-hidden armour value does)?

Bahamut Wiki (one of the most prominent Chinese wiki) offers a different formula than the one recently listed here which was something like every 10 armour gives -50 damage from broadside and -10 from critical.
Bahamut's formula is:
(armour/100) x (1/2) x 100% = ????
with 60 armour you get 30% damage reduction from broadsides
with 80 armour you get 40% damage reduction from broadsides
with 100 armour you get 50% damage reduction from broadsides
anything above 100 armour is wasted as 50% is max you get

There's no armour cap, tested with Pirate_Seymour 130 armour, r19 pene/accu/ballis and master carro set (1072 and under) do -180 on him

each armor -5 dam from sides and -1 from cri. that's the correct formula. The above one is wrong!

This skill is awesome. In my personal experience this skills has like a (evasion) effect where the cannons barely hit the ship. Playing against players is a different story, I notice I still had to repair intensively where as NPC were so easy

Claudia

the reason I like this skill is because the auto-effect and not all ships are modded to have 100 armor . so getting 90+ hidden 10 will suffice

Is it a passive skill?

Misun

Yes extra +10 armour

So how is the armor calculated? I've read 4-5 different ways now...

Does this skill add armor effect above 100 armor?
or is it useless if my ship already has 100 armor?

Chester

it only cost 1 original shipbuilding permit so test it with it off then see if u have 50 less damage wit hit on (1 armor = 5 less damage)

I have a tough question guys. Hope will get some answers :)
This skill adds 10 armour (hidden value). Armour increases acceleration in battle. Many believe that armour increases acceleration outside battle too.
So, my question is:
Taking all written above into account, does this skill increase acceleration outside battle?

ReaD

for me...armor do increase acceleration outside battle...but...10 armor is too tiny to notice it outside battle...
hmm....use 3 of Master's Hardened Steel Plating might give ya a bit of accel..but it will cause ya the max ship speed...

this thing would do for long distance sailing i think , but +8 or 4 armour wont make a difference to me ... Deep Sea Beech Plating Weathered Cedar Plating

Donce

Yes, Deep Sea Beech Platings are better for long distance sailing, but I will be using them and for short distances - don't want to have 3 of both types, it would take too much space in inventory.

Can this be stacked as original and special ship skill?
