Including Ancient (regardless of its current health bonus state, it can receive another bonus), Ironmight, and Volcanic, regardless of their current health bonuses.

Health bonuses do not apply to shields.

This is a quick, easy way to implement a "waller" or "tank" type playstyle without much thought or work. The current plate armors are currently weak in their defenses due to a lowered special defense. It would also keep each armor unique in their original designs, because it is a universal health bonus without the intent of normalizing everything

If Chaos armor is getting buffed for the "glass cannon" playstyle, then the "waller" or "tank" (not sure if "tank" applies to this game, with no agro tables and all) should receive some attention in my opinion, just to even stuff out :/

I agree

No idea why they'd needlessly buff Chaos to be what it was intended to be when most armours in the game aren't what they intended them to be.

You'd be quite surprised how much melee damage the plate mail series can tank up. They have greater normal defense stat bars of a star rating above them. However, the ASD Low is unnecessary and unjustified on Spiral, Boosted, and Heavy Plate Mail: The penalty those armors pay for increasing the normal defense is the loss of a secondary defense.
The Ancient Plate Mail's boosted health justifies either its MSD or ASI, but not both. One of them should be removed. Either that, or remove ASD, turn the MSD: Low into MSD: Medium per piece, then give it a universal CTR: Low.
The Volcanic/Ironmight with their additional defense require a drawback for their increased normal defense so these should be left as is.

then the "waller" or "tank" (not sure if "tank" applies to this game, with no agro tables and all) should receive some attention in my opinion, just to even stuff out :/

You've never run with me before then lol. I'm always dropping hazes to aggro everything in the room, deflecting enemy attacks with Sudaruska and feeding my Ancient Plate Shield to trojans while teammates take them out. ^^

We still have the other plain armors.
I say we buff Plate, keeping it's ASD and bump everythign elses (skelly, jelly, etc) defenses to current "plate" level.

this should still be looked

this should still be looked into in my opinion

Can't favor the glass cannon playstyle and kick tanks / wallers in the rear.
