Ironclad Charge Question

[AdamTheBean]

So does the armor apply to Iron skin for the duration of the buff or is it like.. you get the buff then cast iron skin and it is there for the duration of iron skin...

For the duration of Iron Skin

[Darzk]

The way IS works is that it gains bonus health for the armor value you have when you cast it. All armor buffs benefit it, so long as they're active when you cast. If they come into effect after, they won't help IS at all.

 

Edit: I've been fooling around with a 'Spam Charge to get high armor, then Spam Iron Skin to nuke' build with both the Charge and IS augments. It's hilarious and actually hits pretty damn hard. Although the invulnerability period is actually a detriment there.

Okay, so get the buff, then cast IS and the extra armor is there for the duration of ironskin.. However, getting any buffs after the IS cast will not affect it?

( or until IS runs out and you can recast it after another charge buff )

 

- Sorry,  just confirming.

Yep.

 

Armor at the cast point matters.

Afterwards, not really.

Awesome! - thanks all.

Yeah, it works, I've gotten 15K Iron Skins from charging into 7 enemies or so.
