'''Studded:''' Studded armor is rarely seen in PvP do to its weakness against piercing attacks. This makes the wearer highly susceptible to damage from swords, and pierces can often prove fatal. It has a better dodge rate than chain, and is considered to be more practical against blunt weapons. It also weighs much less than a full chain set, and is much less cumbersome to move speed.
'''Chain:''' Chain armor is the most frequently used in PvP. It is easy to make, and its supplies are in abundance in the land of Wurm. It provided a decent amount of armor while not being too restricting to speed. The glance rate is higher than that of studded, and being hit results in lighter wounds.
'''Plate:''' Plate armor is rarely seen in pvp, as it is extremely cumbersome to the player. The Great Helm is the only piece of plate armor that is frequently used, as it is the only piece of armor that protest the fact (other than rare and highly valued summer hats). It has been used in some scenarios to great effect. Its practicality in horse combat and deed defense has been speculated before, as, while it does slow the player down immensely, it has an extremely high glance rate, and damage done the player is greatly reduced. The weight of an entire plate set is over 20kgs, and as such, decreases the overall amount a player can hold.
Armor, especially the higher tier armors, are often enchanted with AOSP or Web Armor to give an additional advantage to the player. AOSP returns a portion of the damage done to the player, and, just as vitally, adds the hurting status to the enemy. Web armor greatly reduced the movement speed of a player, and allows the person who was hit to retreat or call in their allies to go in for the kill. What enchant one gets on their armor is a matter of preference, although it is easier for BL to get Web Armor, and WL to get AOSP.
