Question Title:	Melee Defense and Armour
Category:	Combat
Question:	Is getting hit determined strictly by melee defense, or does armour level affect this as well? Does armour function solely as a damage modifier? Thanks, Kuan-Yu

Answer:	Yes, melee defense is the only thing that matters when determining the to-hit. Armor affects the dmg received once hit.
