This is generally broken down into two main categories: Armor Rating and Shield Rating. ### Armor Rating All physical damage is reduced to the wearer equal to the [armor's](Armor%20(Corvanis).md) rating. Each time an attack successfully deals damage to the wearer, the armor rating is reduced by 1. This can be repaired with a [Smithing Kit](Corvanis%20Smithing%20Kit.md) during rests. ### Shields Rating All physical damage is reduced to the wielder by this [shield's](Corvanis%20Shields.md) armor rating. Shield rating does not reduce from attacks, except by weapons with the [Hack](Hack.md) property.
