Trial of he Sekhemas, defenses against honour loss?

Do any defenses work in the trial regarding mitigation of honour loss, or avoiding/preventing damage that would cause honour loss?

In sanctum, some defenses effect it, mainly the core 3, while others do not.

I'm particularly asking about Armour, evasion, block and elemental resistance?

I know ES is added to the honour pool and there is honour resistance, but asking bout the above.

Cheers.

I'm not exactly sure if Armour does anything for Honour, but wiki doesn't mention it. Proximity to the targets does, so melee have an easier time.

Evasion is self explainatory, u get hit less hence u lose less honour on average.

Apart from that, there is a stat for relics called "Honour Resistance" which caps out at 75% like any other resistance. It's more or less mandatory until u mastered the Trial. (for 3rd and 4th ascension)

I see. I assume if evasion avoids and ES increases the pool that armor should be providing some mitigation. Maybe I should not assume though.

Block doesn't work in sanctum as far as I know, so maybe nothing there, even though there seems to be quite a bit of differences.

Pretty sure block works in Trial of Sekhema.

Ok, thanks for help.
