was looking at items and a potential root on how to build my jungle rammus and began to wonder if there was a magic resist and armor cap. It would be very easy for rammus to reach this cap due to his defensive curl which at rank 5 gives 150 mr/armor.

curious, thanks
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

There isn't a cap technically but, Rammus is the only one who can reach it. you have to stack 6 Thornmails, have only armor runes and use the armor increasing mastery. Works great until you come along a team of casters.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

There's no cap. There is, however, a current technical highest possible amount you can get to. As you said, Rammus with DBC, 6 Thornmails, all scaling armor runes, armor mastery, on a team with a Taric holding Aegis, a Sona playing Aria of Perseverance, and a Soraka who blesses him to increase armor.

Perfect setup for armor "cap":
Soraka using Astral Blessing on master Yi.
Galio using Bulwark on Master Yi.
Master Yi using Meditate and stacking 6 Thornmails.
Taric standing by with Shatter aura and Aegis of the Legion.
Mordekaiser using Creeping Death on Master Yi.

Master Yi now has the highest armor, ever!

Aren't we forgetting Malphite's Brutal Strikes? It increases his armor by 40%. That can be a pretty hefty amount with 6thornmails and a lot of buffs.
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.

I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817

There's not enough MR increasing skills/items to make it worthwhile.
