| Normal armour is something you wear that protects you from both types of physical [[Damage|damage]] (cutting and blunt).
| |
|
| |
| The basic types of armour in [[Imperian]], aside from shields, are, in ascending order of effectiveness below. The strongest armour
| |
| that certain profession can wear has been listed next to that armour type, each profession can wear the armour below it, but
| |
| will not be as protected as they could be. Those that have no class may wear only leather armour.

| ** Mages can wear their alchemical robes, if they themselves crafted the garment.
| |
| ** Fullplate armour is a bit different, in that the only characters who may wear it are those who have forged it for themselves.
| |
|
| |
|
| Pieces of armour also exist that serve as protection for specific parts of the body. Helms protect the head (If you are wearing
| |
| a helm you may CLOSE BEVOR to mitigate asphyxiation damage), vambraces protect the arms, and greaves protect the legs. There
| |
| are three levels of each, leather, chain, and plate. Professions which are able to wear leather armour, chainmail, or field
| |
| plate are permitted to wear the respective levels of part-specific armour.

| |
| Wielding heavier shields is possible, however, it comes at a cost of balance and equilibrium penalties. There are no profession
| |
| restrictions on shields.

|
| |
| ==Armour Statistics==
| |
| Non-magickal armour and shields have two armour-specific statistics: protection vs. cutting damage and protection vs. blunt
| |
| damage. The '''WEAPONPROBE''' ability in the [[Weaponry]] skill will allow you to see these statistics on a piece of armour or on a
| |
| shield.
