Armor Group: Plate

< previous • armor • next >

Plate armor consists of plates of metal which have been shaped and worked to fit together and form solid armor. Plate Armors are by far the most protective armors available in Elanthia and as such are preferred by the Warrior classes. However, the tradeoffs are significant. Plate armors are heavier, slow the wearer, and also have considerable magic hindrance. For these reasons the magic users of Elanthia generally prefer not to wear them.

The four sub-groups of Plate Armor are:

Metal Breastplate Half Plate
