% stacks multiplicatively so it would give 46% not 50. {1-(1-0.4)*(1-0.1))=0.46}

and the flat part is calculated first, so having both flat and % penetration is a waste because % is more effective against higher armor targets (50% of 400=200, 50% of 10=5)

The follow order is:

LW and Weapon_Expertise give 4. Percentage armor penetration, like most items and spells give penetration rather than reduction.
 * 1) Flat armor reduction
 * 2) Percentage armor reduction
 * 3) Flat armor penetration
 * 4) Percentage armor penetration

Stacking flat armor penetration and reduction was rather effective tough and for that reason I want SotD back too. even if they just romove the dodge part or make it so that you can remove blinds with it for the duration
