Skyrim talk:Fortify Heavy Armor

Fortify Potion Applies to All Heavy Armor

Worth to mention that the Fortify Heavy Armor by X, applies to all the pieces of heavy armor you are wearing when using a potion. If the potion says “Fortify Heavy Armor by 56 for 60 seconds, that means your total armor rating increase by 56 x 4 (given that all pieces are heavy armor). My Guantlets went from 270 to 339. My question is, will this affect the perk “Fist of steel”? — Unsigned comment by 144.164.193.215 (talk) at 03:38 on 31 December 2011

I noticed that my Heavy Armor Skill of 93 increased 113 when I equipped a Necklace of the Eminent Knight. What my question is, is how exactly does this effect my armor rating? When unequipped my AR is 312, and equipped its at 330. Why does it increase only by 18 points? Shouldn't my AR be 332? Or is there some sort of formula involved that explains this phenomenon?
