Since you will be recieving 15 to 30 percent fewer hits you need fewer shield gnerators.

Except that the math he uses only applies to situations where the enemy has base 100% to hit (before armor modifications). If the enemy had a base 30% to hit, adding both armors would mean you would only be hit 1% of the time, which is not correctly reflected in his formulae.

Best advice is to put the armor on everything, unless you don't care about being hit, or your enemy is going to hit you 100% of the time anyway.
