Scale mail armor bg3
Scale mail armor! A classic choice for adventurers in Baldur's Gate 3. Here's a breakdown of the stats and effects:
Scale Mail Armor
- Armor Class: 18 (leather armor) + 2 (scale mail) = 20
- Weight: 30 pounds
- Cost: 15 gold pieces
- Armor Type: Light armor
- Armor Class Bonus: +2
Properties:
- Fortification: The armor has a 10% chance to deflect a critical hit, making it a non-critical hit instead.
- Improved Shield: The armor grants a bonus to your Armor Class when you're wearing a shield. The bonus is equal to your Dexterity modifier (minimum +1).
Notes:
- As a light armor, scale mail doesn't restrict your movement or ability to cast spells.
- The Fortification property can be quite useful, especially against critical hits from enemies with high attack bonuses.
- The Improved Shield property can be particularly useful if you're using a shield as part of your defensive strategy.
Overall, scale mail armor is a solid choice for adventurers who want a balance of protection and mobility. It's not as heavy or restrictive as plate armor, but still provides a good amount of protection against physical attacks.
