Has anyone gotten stats for Leather/Cloth 05/12/2015 06:07 AM CDT


I am in the market for a Leather/Cloth armor that covers the torso and arms. I guess if I put my nose to the grindstone, I could afford Titanese (sp)Hauberk that I see in the market. Other than that, what are the better, affordable choices? I go around appraising, various sets in the plaza...but can't get a real grasp on what is "good" and what isn't.

Any suggestions?

What is good depends on your weight desires.

A generic cotton/jute hauberk is amazingly good, and can appraise similar to forged chain. Leather is roughly the same, but lighter and more expensive.

If titanese has too much of a price tag, you might want to consider ruazin wool. It's not quite as protective as titanese, but far more protective than standard cloths like buralap, wool, or silk. Likewise, it's roughly half the weight of titanese, so it won't hinder you as much overall. The only real downside to ruazin is the durability issue, which will lead you to repair it more often than you would other materials.

Anyone have a clue about which trader shop I should visit, or armor maker to talk to? I have seen a Ruazin Hauberk, but it was thin. I think I'd like to see a thick one.

You can get a general idea of potential by looking at the stats for the cloths, themselves:
