Armor has two stats - Absorption and protection. Absorb is a static % off all incoming damage. It is only modified slightly by a skill contest of Armor Factor Vs Enemy Offensive Factor. Armor factor is basically Armor skill and a few other modifiers. OF is basically weapon skill and a some other modifiers. Absorb tends to be better at reducing large hits.

Protection is a flat amount off. It is heavily modified by a skill contest of Armor Factor Vs Enemy Offensive Factor. Protection tends to be better against smaller hits.

Defense skill reduces the defensive penalty provided by engaging multiple enemies (and being flanked). It is also the skill used to defend against Tactics maneuvers.
