I think the best solution is probably to send the messages less often. IE, you don't need to regenerate 1 armour unit (or whatever) per second, you could just do 10 armour units per 10 seconds. That would reduce the net traffic due to the armour message by a factor of 10. Or you could just predict the armour regeneration on the client side, and eliminate the messaging entirely (except for when the player gets damaged or gets a powerup or something that affects his armour).
