Scale mail armour 5e

Scale mail armor is a type of armor in Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition. Here are the stats for scale mail armor:

Scale Mail Armor

• Armor Class: 12 (natural armor)
• Maximum Dexterity: 12
• Weight: 20 pounds
• Cost: 10 gold pieces
• Description: Scale mail armor is a type of armor made from interlocking metal scales that are sewn or riveted together to form a protective garment. It provides moderate protection against attacks, but is not as effective as plate armor.

Properties:

• Natural Armor: Scale mail armor has a natural armor class of 12, which means it provides a bonus to the wearer's armor class equal to the wearer's Dexterity modifier (up to a maximum of +2).
• Flexibility: Scale mail armor is flexible and allows for a full range of motion, making it suitable for characters who need to move quickly and freely.
• Vulnerability: Scale mail armor is vulnerable to piercing attacks, which deal an additional 1d4 damage when striking the wearer.

Notes:

• Scale mail armor is a good choice for characters who want a balance between protection and mobility. It provides a decent amount of protection without restricting movement too much.
• The natural armor class of 12 means that the wearer's Dexterity modifier will not affect the armor class, so characters with high Dexterity scores may not benefit as much from scale mail armor as they would from other types of armor.
• The vulnerability to piercing attacks means that characters wearing scale mail armor should be careful when facing enemies that use piercing attacks, such as rangers or rogues with longswords.
