Heavy Armor gives a set amount of damage reduction to non-magical damage. The amount you can reduce resets at the beginning of your turn each round.
Shields do not effect damage reduction, they just add onto your normal AC.
To keep track of your damage reduction, it’s recommended that you write how much you can reduce each round somewhere on your sheet either in your notes, misc. powers, or elsewhere
