Cairn scars

I'm unsure how they work and googling it is giving conflicting information.

If I get hit for 4 damage (-1 protected by armor) and it reduces me exactly to zero do I count it as 4 on the scars table or 3 for the actual damage done to me?

Would I then give myself a 3 or 4 scar from the table or do I roll a D12 to see which scar I get?

I'm still new to all of this and would appreciate the help.

      I don't see why they don't come out with an explanation to clarify it.

    Work in progress 2nd edition clarifies it, it is based on amount of HP you actually lost.
    Public playtest version of 2E was released in July.
