how good is this skill compared to MK's Sanctuary?

At Hard Mode, once Sanctuary kicks in, even an Eliminator's deadly stomp attack deals only around 100hp and the other attacks deal 1hp. And I'm still wearing subpar non-dragonforged armor.

But with Watchfulness, I only seem to notice around 20-30% damage reduction. Does Watchfullness only increase defense/magic defense or is it a flat percentage in reducing incoming damage?

Sanctuary wiki page: +50% Defense/Magic Defense

Watchfulness page: Halves damage taken

Sanctuary looks so much more op since it probably reduces incoming damage by >99%, and doesn't appear to rely much on armor. At least in my case, I normally get ~1k damage with every Eliminator hit, but only 1 damage once Sanctuary activates.

God these skill descriptions are so vague.
