^ Vex armor bonus with shields means you can get easily 2k+ armor as long you are taking hits to your shields and that is without power strength boost and just using maxing Redirection.

That is easily 92%+ DR iirc. And armor at very high ratings can easily see you need a few thousand points for just 1 or 2% extra gains.

The issue is that Vex armor can be dispelled by Nullifers/stalkers etc Hence robbing Chroma of his durability. If you want reliable safety Steel Fiber is better but it won't be as tough as Vex armor.
