'''Each armor type has a distinct a advantage and disadvantage.'''
:* [[:Category:Plate Armourarmour|Plate armour]] - Generally provides the highest base defense with large penalties to speed. Wearing plate you will see a lower attack speed and a lower walking speed. It is also important to realize that the weight of the plate suit further will limit your usefulness in combat. A plate suit adds nearly 50kgs of weight. Plate also has a defense bonus vs cutting. The equipment also has a penalty vs mauls causing higher damage to the equipment when attacked with a maul.<br>:* [[:Category:Chain Armourarmour|Chain armour]] - Generally provides a middle ground base defense with moderate penalties to speed. The wearer will walk moderately slower and have a moderately slower attack speed. Chain armor offers a defense bonus vs stabbing damage, while the equipment itself receives extra damage from stabbing. <br>
:* [[:Category:Leather Armour|Leather armour]] - Generally provides the least amount of base defense. However it also has the smallest penalties to attack speed and walking speed. Leather Armor has defensive bonuses to bashing, while the equipment itself also gets extra damage from cutting.
:* [[:Category:Studded Leather Armour|Studded leather armour]] - Generally provides a moderate amount of base defense with similar penalties as leather Armor. Studded Leather Armor represents a good common ground between speed and reasonable defense though still less base defense then plate provides.<br>
== Special armour types ==
:* [[:Category:Drake hide armour|Dragon hide armour]] - The best [[leatherworking]] based armour existing in Wurm. Its protection rating is between chain and plate, yet more vulnerable to cutting and piercing than chain armor. Drake hide armor has the lowest penalty to attack speed and walking speed (16.97km/h on cobble) and is very lightweight.
:* [[:Category:dragon scale armour|dragon Dragon scale armour]] - Dragon scales are the best armour available. Made out of the scales of a red [[dragon]], this kind of armour is superior to plate armour, while having movement penalty that is similar to that of studded leather armour.
