Is Arm's Length debuff slow? I thought it applied heavy, as in movement speed reduction. If it's the former then yeah, should probably use it more especially during big pulls. If it's the latter then I fail to see how making things move slower would help with mitigation unless it also slowed down their attack rate.

Defensive buffs are multiplicative, not additive. Using both then would be around 17.5% or something. Still better than what GNB has right now though, I'd gladly take that as a minor buff.
