Spiky Shield

Spiky Shield

Epic
Gain +2 Thorns for every 1% Armor . Also gains 10% Armor.
Scaling Type:
Linear scaling (additive) for thorns (+2 per 1% armor per copy) and armor (+10% raw per copy) Note: Armor uses hyperbolic scaling

Detailed Explanation

Gain +2 Thorns for every 1% Armor . Also gains 10% Armor.
 
Note that Armor is a stat that uses hyperbolic scaling. This means that although spiky shield does give you "+10% armor" this is the raw input number, and is calculated through a hyperbolic scaling formula before applied to how much armor you actually gain.

How it Stacks

You gain a "raw" +10% armor for each copy (before calculated through the hyperbolic scaling formula)
 
The amount of thorns also scales linearly with the amount of spiky shields you have
 
 
$$ \text{Thorns} = 2 \cdot \text{amount} \cdot (\text{Armor}\%) $$
