Would someone who is wearing Armor of the Heavens dishonor if targeted by a dishonoring action, or would the honor gain rehonor them instead?

Would someone who is wearing Armor of the Heavens dishonor if targeted by a dishonoring action, or would the honor gain rehonor them instead?

Because Armor of the Heavens responds to targeting, which comes before effects, the Reaction will occur and resolve before the Personality can ever be dishonored by an effect.
