As someone did point out there is a feat in 5e "Heavy armor master" that does a flat 3 damage reduction which I think is not worth a feat but I could slap it onto medium and heavy armor?  It is a small amount but over time it does end up helping a lot also would be easy enough to calculate? The idea of rolling a d4 is because players and myself just like to roll dice lol but perhaps a flat amount is faster ?</blockquote>
