Armor Stats Explained
The total stat bonus on your armor for any given stat is translated into a percentage bonus. This percentage bonus caps at 100%, though it is possible to go beyond 100% in total across the three stats (for example, a 50% bonus from Discipline, Intellect, and Strength, or a 100% bonus from one stat and 50% from another).
Exactly how high can you get? That depends entirely on the quality and level of your armor. A full set of upgraded Legendary armor with an Exotic piece can get you quite a stat bump.
