Transcendence Build
It causes armour to reduce elemental damage taken instead of physical damage, and also reduces your maximum elemental resistances.
In which order are armour and resistances applied when taking the Transcendence Keystone? Do you use the damage number after or before resistances are applied to calculate the percentage of the damage armour mitigates?
For each damage type, if you have a Resistance which applies to that damage it applies first, then if Armour applies to that damage, Damage Reduction for that type from Armour is calculated and applied to the remaining damage (any Additional Damage Reduction is added to that from armour, but currently this is only possible to get for physical damage).
This means that resistances lower damage before it gets compared to armour to work out how much reduction armour applies, and if armour is applying to multiple damage types, that calculation and reduction happens separately for each of them, rather than once for the total damage amount.
