using decaying keys to have no shields will actually increase your health armor, or to say make use of your health armor

unfortunately the game will not calculate your armor stats or health resistances when damage hits your shield and bleeds over into health, instead it uses the shield damage resistance attributes which are much weaker for any over damage, after that it uses your true armor+health stats as long as u have no shield

this is why you get one shot easily, because the overdamage was calculated using shields even for health armor

by having zero shields you can force the game to use your true armor + health values vs any damage on high armor health frames
