How does a rank 4 Arcane Guardian gets you 11.200 armor?

Arcane Guardian only gets you an ADDITIVE 60% of BASE ARMOR ===> 350 (Chroma's Base armor) * 0.6 (60%) = 210 Armor.

So you get a flat 210 Armor. That's all. Chroma's Vex Armor also uses base armor in calculations, so it doesn't matter the bonus given by this arcane, nor the bonus given by the ice ward.

An example of calculations for 80% power strength:

Steel Fiber + 80% + Ward = 350 (100% steel fiber, not max) + 2205 (80% vex armor = 350*6.3) + 270 (150*1.8) =  2825 armor  => 90.39% mitigation

So with a rank 4 arcane Guardian it will be 2825 + 210 = 3035 armor => 91% mititgation

And for max power strength (184%):

Steel Fiber + 184% + ward = 350 (100% steel fiber, not max) + 3479 (184% vex armor = 350*9.94) + 426 (150*2.84) = 4255 => 93.41% mititgation

Steel Fiber + 184% + ward + Arcane Guardian = 4255 + 210 = 4465 => 93.70%


 * Note that max steel fiber gives you 385, instead of 350 used by me in calculation, so it's a merely 35 bonus to the total armor.
