Jus some basic questions

[DevilsDice]

OK, this has been bugging me for like, well, forever..

When Gauntlets of Sorigs are EA'd (( man, Stryker and I argued about this like, 2 months ago >.> )), does the Speed +1 increase? I know base stat affectors dont, I.E. Dex +1, but would the Speed +1 goto Speed +2?

And yes,I know if it DOESNT have AC, it doesnt get n e...

And, this added, does Armour deflect a certain amount of damage?

I think Toran hits about 100 Dam with his Might hammer, and I have around 80 Armour with Dual RoW on (( i dont have mith or bracers n e more ;-; )), and yet I took 3 damage, 31, and about, 80 damage the last swing... He was doing all swings, no overhead crushes..

And yet, another quest... Does a Swing (left to right) do, light damage, as compared to a Thrust (forward) doing Medium, and a Jumping hit (backswing) do heavy damage? Jus wanted to know...

Thats jus a stupid question, when I remember my others, I'll ask... ty
