It's worth noting the true debuff value is not based on the total numerical value of the opponents armor factor, but rather the absorption percentage of their armor type. I'm assuming these absorption rates are still accurate. The following will show the true values of the debuff on various armor types at level 50.
"Glimpse of Death Debuff (AF), Decay Armor Debuff (AF), & Erode Armor Debuff (AF)"
"Reduces the target's armor factor (AF) by 250 for 45 sec."
Cloth: absorbance = 0%
True AF debuff value ~ 312
Leather: absorbance = 10%
True AF debuff value ~ 343
Studded or Reinforced: absorbance = 19%
True AF debuff value ~ 372
Chain or Scale: absorbance = 27%
True AF debuff value ~ 396
Plate (Albion only): absorbance = 34%
True AF debuff value ~ 415
These screenshots show a Level 50 fully templated/buffed Hero before & after he receives Glimpse of Death Debuff (AF). As you can see the Hero's AF is 793 prior to the debuff & 397AF after the debuff for a total reduction of 396AF.
