![]() The following information is copied and slightly reworded from the broken condition. Armor fitted for Small characters weighs half as much, and armor for Large characters weighs twice as much. This column gives the weight of the armor sized for a Medium wearer. Shields: Shields do not affect a character’s speed. ![]() A character’s encumbrance may also incur an armor check penalty. An armor check penalty applies to all Dex– and Strength-based skill checks. Armor Check PenaltyĪny armor heavier than leather, as well as any shield, hurts a character’s ability to use Dex– and Str-based skills. Shields: Shields do not affect a character’s maximum Dex bonus, except for tower shields. This restriction doesn’t affect any other Dexterity-related abilities.Įven if a character’s Dex bonus to Armor Class drops to 0 because of armor, this situation does not count as losing his Dex bonus to Armor Class.Ī character’s encumbrance (the amount of gear carried, including armor) may also restrict the maximum Dex bonus that can be applied to his Armor Class. Heavier armors limit mobility, reducing the wearer’s ability to dodge blows. Dexterity bonuses in excess of this number are reduced to this number for the purposes of determining the wearer’s Armor Class. This number is the maximum Dexterity bonus to Armor Class that this type of armor allows. Similarly, the shield bonus from a shield doesn’t stack with other effects that grant a shield bonus. The armor bonus from a suit of armor doesn’t stack with other effects or items that grant an armor bonus. Armor/Shield BonusĮach type of armor grants an armor bonus to Armor Class, while shields grant a shield bonus to Armor Class. See Table: Armor for Unusual Creatures for armor prices for other creatures. The cost in gold pieces of the armor for Small or Medium humanoid creatures. Here is the format for armor entries (given as column headings on Table: Armor and Shields). To wear heavier armor effectively, a character can select the Armor Proficiency feats, but most classes are automatically proficient with the armors that work best for them. Many characters can wear only the simplest of armors, and only some can use shields. Armor & Shieldsįor most, armor is the simplest way to protect oneself in a world of rampant threats and dangers. * Can be worn alone or added to existing suits of armor. Armor fitted for Small characters weighs half as much, and armor fitted for Large characters weighs twice as much.Ģ When running in heavy armor, you move only triple your speed, not quadruple.ģ A tower shield can instead grant you cover. Well, At least you can keep up 2 buffs from the best food and buy Heroic Invocation scrolls in the shop en masse.1 Weight figures are for armor sized to fit Medium characters. Imo, loot progression is a way more timid than it was in Depths DLC. In the end - same way as Kingmaker's rogue-like, if random is not in your favor be prepared to spend all you run with basic items from the Chaplain's shop. So my advise - don't skip up on the islands with a merchant spawn - he refreshes his shop each "chapter" of rogue-like and is best source of unique Wrath loot. But other than that, all my mounted paladins that got to lvl 20 (all 2 of them) were ending the run in generic +5. Skeleton has some decent armor from the main game, I've bought Chain of Comradery from him couple of times. There is Mithral breastplate + 5 that is guaranteed drop from some fat vavakias that spawn very often on the way to boss 3 long before the random chests can caught up with CR climb.įrom what I saw, finding unique armor is even harder than some good weapon. There is full progression of all basic armors up to +5 available in the shop, but Mythril is very common too. 20 ft Charge range and Stealth malus makes that harder but DLC has Mithril Armor to offset that. It’s harder (but not impossible) to do that without Armor Training especially if you want to be able to Zerg. Part of that is not getting hit by the trash and having enough speed to take out stragglers and guys going for my back line.Īlso to take advantage of any good Heavies/Towers that other classes can’t use effectively. Main thing I use Fighter for is taking out the trash with minimal investment to save resources for the hardest fights where I can use Touch and debuffs and rnd/lvl stuff to present threats from the whole team. In vanilla it’s hard to find room.ĪB is always an issue depending on what you’re fighting. TTT lets you take Advanced Weapon Training Feats as regular Feats so it’s a good pickup by the time Bravery hits +3. ![]() Unlike Fighter’s Reflexes though it doesn’t benefit from Duelist Gloves. Bravery gives bonus vs Fear saves (Armiger’s version is vs Compulsion?) that can be converted to Will Saves with Armed Bravery with Advanced Weapon Training.
