Armor has a meaning: if you see someone in heavy armor, you know he is not easy to hit for a commoner, or a mage or a non combat character with his normal attack.2. If someone has better armor, he is most surely protected by magic.3. A fighter at higher level has means to overcome those magical protections and someone without them is not so hard to hit.4. A high level fighter hits like a truck. Even when he is hit, he can suck up the damage without going down. His HP protect him from annoying status effects.What it does not mean: a fighter does not hit better as he levels up.The consequence of 4 is: Without magical protections, a swarm of lvl 1 orcs will get some hits in and over time will do enough damage to kill a level 20 fighter. But with all his resources, surges, cleaves, perhaps some multiattacks and some hp recovery abilities, a lot of orcs will fall against the single fighter. Most probably it will be ranged attacks that bring him down.</blockquote>
