Armor

[Sulta]

I have a question about armor - What are the penalties for wearing different armors. My husband has decided to build a mage and would like to know what kind (if any) armor he can/should wear, and I am going to be working on a Fencer. We play mostly PvM but would like to be able to defend PvP should we need to.

Thanks for any information!

You can meditate in leather, but it will reduce your regen rates. I generally wear a suit of leather on my bard since I don't use mana all that much, and the extra RA paired up with reactive armor provides quality protection in PVM

for your fencer pvm i prefer bone armour and magic studded leather
or if you are confident in your ability to escape pkers or not dieing to mobs id go heavy archer suit
