It doesnt take an entire extra alpha though.
if the atlas has 120 CT armor and its taking 40 damage alphas it takes 3 alphas to strip the armor.
if the same atlas has 120 CT armor AND 12% damage reduction and takes 35.2 damage alphas it takes 3.41 alphas to strip the armor.
So its only .41 more alphas.
Since the alphas are 40 damage .41 * 40 = 16.2
So the Center Torso is effectively able to take about 16 extra damage before being stripped due to the damage reduction.
The DR really doesnt add up to much. 12% is pretty insignificant. But it does make FF and ES pretty close to being equal.
