I don't really like the note. +40 armor means half damage no matter what your AL is, so depending how you look at it, it's not useful on warriors and more useful on squishies. --Fyren 11:15, 7 November 2005 (EST)

Well, my point was that since Mesmers, like all caster, have such weak armor to begin with, even +40 armor is unlikely to allow them to survive a vicious onslaught from, say, a Hammer Warrior or a Bladed Aatxe. It won't turn a squishy into a tank, but it will allow a tank to become a much more efficient tank, similar to how a Warrior using "Watch Yourself!" has a noticeable increase in defense, but his mesmer friend standing next to him will still only last a couple of hits if the enemy decides to attack him.
