Math of Enchantment Synergy, and Secondary Armor Perks. Ok, breach questions (and I'm searching at you in particular, O' astute and just EzarethPvP, as I've already apparent your ES copy/paste column on percentiles and net impact) - as I'm aggravating to be methodical about my body - but I can't assume to get numbers to add up.

1) Aboriginal catechism not ES, but still stumped: I accept a abounding set of Daedric Mail. Fire/Slashing Resistance from accomplished Chest, Helmet, Gauntlets, Boots is +17, +8, +7, +6 (total 38) respectively, but my absolute Fire/Slashing Defense in Stats is abandoned 35. Why?

2) My abject bloom (lvl 54) is 690. I accept three Daedric Mail Armor of Peerless Bloom (+160 Chest, +160 Helmet, +132 Boots). Add it all up: absolute bloom with all able should be 1,142 Health. Now:

I accept abounding Enchantment Synergy Abject Upgrade (lvl 2, or 7%). I accept added necks that go up to ES +4.

My LOWEST bloom with no necks that accept ES is 1127 (below what my max bloom should be with all Armor Equipped).

My HIGHEST bloom (with +4 ES Abutting Able and aforementioned armor) is 1160 (only 18pts aloft what it should be afterwards ES added bonus.

I'm artful that ES Rank 2,+4 from Neck, should accord me 160*1.15, +160*1.15, and 132*1.15 = 520). It doesn't assume to be accomplishing that. I'm accepting 470 with the +4 ES neck, if it's 452 WITHOUT the added ES perk. That's a 3.9% gain. Not 15%.

What EXACTLY is ES abacus - and how much? I can't get any numbers to add up to 7% let abandoned 15% (per the rank 2 ES alone, or the Rank 2 with +4 from a neck). It accept to be impacted by ES, because that absolute bloom bulk changes if I about-face out necks.

HEEEELP.
