Description
Skill gained while creating and improving plate armours. Influences the success ratio and the quality of the outcome.
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.
