[Bug] Chainmail & Armor Reduction

Post by Sakar »

Chainmail Hauberk shows as "Light" rather than Heavy armor and it doesn't seem to yield any bonus based on the character's Heavy Armor skill

For xample, when I take off my rusty plate (Heavy) and put my chainmail hauberk on, my damage reduction drops from 6 to 4. I have 6 pts in Heavy Armor skill and only 1 in Light Armor. So something's not right...

I.

1. Chainmail Coif - Light armor - ac 2

2. Chainmail Hauberk - Light armor - ac 4

3. Chainmail Leggings - Heavy armor - ac 3

4. Chainmail Boots - Heavy armor - ac 2


In most games chainmail is light/medium armor so maybe in Eschalon it should be light armor.


II.

1. iron bracers - heavy armor - ac 2

2. steel braccers - light armor - ac 3 or 4


III.

1. Swordsman`s gauntlets - Light armor - + 2 sword/ + 1 ac

Most if not all fighters use heavy armor so maybe this item should be heavy not light atmor.


Could you check this, too ??
