Iron Reflexes
Iron Reflexes is a keystone passive skill that removes all evasion rating and converts it to armour rating. However, the increased evasion rating bonus from dexterity is not applied.
Mechanics
Conversion Formulae
The final Armour value is calculated with the following formula: [1][2]
Final Armour = Flat AR * (1 + [total #% increases/reduction AR]) * (1 + [total #% more/less AR]) + Flat EV * (1 + [total #% increases/reduction to AR/EV]) * (1 + [total #% more/less AR]) * (1 + [total #% more/less EV])
where:
EV = "Evasion Rating" AR = "Armour" Flat EV = Sum of Evasion Rating from Equipped Items (e.g. Body Armour, Shield) and other sources of additional Evasion Rating (e.g. Grace) Flat AR = Sum of Armour from Equipped Items (e.g. Body Armour, Shield) and other sources of additional Evasion Rating (e.g. Determination)
Modifiers which grant #% increased Evasion Rating and Armour (e.g. Bravery) or #% increased Global Defences (e.g. Skin of the LoyalSkin of the Loyal

For example, taking Bravery would increase flat ER by 24%, which would then be converted directly into the final Armour. It does not then apply 24% increased Armour, as the flat ER was already affected by that passive.
Example
1000 Armour from Equipped Items
1000 Evasion Rating from Equipped Items
+1500 Armour from Granite Flask
+1500 Evasion Rating from Jade Flask
+2051 Armour from Determination
+2575 Evasion Rating from Grace
80% increased Armour from passive skills
40% increased Evasion Rating from passive skills
36% increased Evasion Rating and Armour from passive skills
49% more Armour from Determination
29% more Evasion Rating from Grace
Final Armour = (1000 + 1500 + 2051) * (1 + 0.80 + 0.36) * 1.49 + (1000 + 1500 + 2575) * (1 + 0.80 + 0.40 + 0.36) * 1.49 * 1.29 Final Armour = 4551 * 2.16 * 1.49 + 5075 * 2.56 * 1.49 * 1.29 Final Armour = 14646.9 + 24972.9 Final Armour = 39620
