Talk:Honor Guard (Season 2012 Mastery)/@comment-77.249.233.124-20120330131403

Where does this mastery come in play with calculations? is it substracted after resistances or before? And is this subtracted after Havoc or do the 2 just cancel each other out? Because if it's 100+1,5%-1,5%=99,9775 (or 100*1,015*0,985), than Honor Guard beats Havoc by a (very) small margin. But if it's like 100+(1,5-1,5)%=100 than this mastery really is kinda useless even though a lot of people tend to use Havoc.

I'm asking because a tanky mage in mid can really benefit from defensive masteries, especially if they overall beat offensive ones (which according to my calculations seems to be the case).
