as of at least 1.2.0 and now, Indiscernible Anatomy and items that say "Reduces incoming crit damage by x%" are giving and have been giving additional chance to shrug off critical strikes entirely instead of reducing the bonus damage done by critical hits, as per their descriptions; the Indiscernible Anatomy description even says all critical hits against you will do at least normal damage
I do not know if this issue also exists for Armour Training or not, if someone with it who uses heavy armor is reading this, please post here if it gives you crit reduction instead of crit shrug off
the involved addons in my saves are Dwarven Adventurers(lets dwarf adventurers get stone warden talents if they've donated and are online), stone wardens(the donator reward), items vault(the one everyone has), and Breeding pits Restoration project; I am under the impression that none of these should affect my issue even the slightest little bit
I am concerned that with Indescribable Anatomy and Armour Training both at 5/5 with massive plate armor, it would be easy to obtain 100% crit shrug off, which according to items and talent descriptions is not intended

UPDATE:
after some testing I can confirm that Armour Training is also bugged, in that it gives crit reduction instead of crit shrug according to the character sheet; the description of the talent explicitly states that it is supposed to reduce the chance that you are critically stricken by x%, and I am wearing massive plate armor
wearing the massive plate armor with level 3 armour training also does NOT increase crit shrug off at all, which it is supposed to do
this was tested with a validated save using the same addons mentioned above

UPDATE: after testing it I have confirmed that Ice Core gives crit shrug off instead of crit reduction; the talent is intended to give crit reduction and the talent description explicitly says that critical attacks against you will always do at least normal damage after the intended crit reduction
after extensive testing I have also confirmed that the stat, crit shrug off, works as intended as well(when you have it); giving the guy with it the listed chance to completely ignore the critical multiplier from a critical strike against him
I'm also guessing that crit reduction works as well, when you have it
