Ok, Shot a trog with a a big zap (Arcane , 5dmg) with both spark generator(Subtract 3 from block rolls against arcane attacks you play) and a spark instigator (subtract 2 from block rolls against arcane attacks you play). Trog had crude plates (Armor 4, trigger 3,). I am pretty sure he rolled a 5, it doesn't really matter since I used an arcane attack and it should have subtracted a total of 5 from his block so he never should have been able to reach 3 in the first place. Anyways, it said he blocked my attack and only took 1 dmg.

This isn't a bug. Crude Plates is an armour card (grey background, reduces incoming damage), whereas the effects of those two traits only applies to block cards such as, well, Block (green background, cancels an enemy card entirely).
