% increased armor/shield on amulet lowers instead of increases

I have an amulet wich has:
48% increased armor
12% increased energy shield
And some other stuff like spirit/minion, nothing that affects it.

My current gear gives me
Energyshield: 3924
Armor: 1345 (29%)
current amulet is 18% rarity, +20 atrib and +28dex.

When i equip this new amulet, this all changes to :
Energyshield: 3560
Armor: 738 (18%)

So instead of anything going up, i feel it should say 'decrease' instead, since i loose nearly half my armor and over 400 energyshield. (yes, it really says 'increased').

Something to check would be other gear.
All attributes increase strength which increases life.
So if you are using something like Ghostwrithe you can be getting + base es from your life which is then heavily modified by % es nodes.

Does any of your gear turn red when you take off your +attribute amulet. You might be dropping below the dex requirement or something of another piece

First thing i thought about, but the new amulet has +20 all, non of my gear drops red. My main focus was str/int, got both 100+ and using armor/ES gear.

If it was an odd one with my original helmet, wich was a evasion/ES with dex requirements, it shouldnt affect my armor if i couldnt equip it anymore.
