It depends on the dmg, indomitable always negates 1 or 2 dmg (depending on the number of points spend in it). This mastery takes away 1,5%. This means that on 100 dmg indomitable negates 2 dmg while this mastery negates 1,5 dmg, but on 200 dmg indomitable negates 2 dmg and this mastery 3 dmg. Clearly this mastery is better, because most champs can do more than 100 dmg per hit (a hit being an auto attack or spell or anything this mastery works on) before lvl 6.

That said, this mastery is generally considered very weak because shaving off 3 dmg of off 200 dmg hit is next to nothing and if someone gets the Havoc mastery (gives 1,5% extra dmg) it's completely negated. Though the Havoc mastery itself is generally considered weak as well, even though most people take it on casters to advance in the offense tree.
