I am trying to create a new version of Immersive Armor's Barbarian Armor for my character, with higher AR, but I seem to be running into a problem.

The original AR of this armor is 24 in the CK. My new version is 60 AR. But in-game the AR is 80 for the original and 85 for my new version, which seems wrong to me. Shouldn't my new armor with 60 AR be more than 5 points higher than the original armor with 24 AR?

To complicate matters, I also have a set of Nightingale Armor in my inventory. The CK says that this armor is either 34 or 46. But in-game this armor has an AR of 116.

I feel like I'm not understanding something about all this. Why does armor that is 60 in the CK show up as only 5 AR higher than armor that is 24 in the CK? And why does armor that is 34 or 46 in the CK show up as 116, when my 60 AR armor shows up as 90?

All of these are Light Armor. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong? Or if I'm doing anything wrong? Thank you very much.
