It's important to understand how armor values function. Each type of armor (Improvised, Gambeson, Chain, Plate) have base stat modifiers. A full set of [[iron]] plate slows you down just as much as a full set of [[copper]] plate, but iron armor has more durability so it lasts longer than copper armor. Secondly, iron is "more protective" because a metal of a higher tier has a higher "Flat Damage Reduction" and a higher "Relative Protection" reduction percentage. Also, armor constructed from higher tier materials protects more effectively against powerful attacks from higher tier weapons. Generally, higher tier metals make more protective/durable armor: iron is more durable and affords more damage reduction when compared to [[black bronze]], which is more durable and protective than copper. Armor is an investment in resources, but the cost of materials returns value to the player.

==== Leather ====
When it comes to armor, plate is the most protective and has the highest flat damage reduction: a player wearing a full set of steel plate armor should receive close to zero damage from most types of attack. But plate armor slows the player considerably and makes it difficult to use ranged weapons.  Plate is also the most expensive to create, as it requires plates on top of chainmail, which is added to a leather jerkin. Please note: the leather jerkin is a component for Brigandine, Chain, Scale, and Plate armors, while the Leather Armor is a "finished armor". Both items can be worn as armor, but they offer very different protective values.

==== Metal Armors ==== <!--T:12-->
When it comes to armor, plate is the most protective and has the highest flat damage reduction: a player wearing a full set of steel plate armor should receive close to zero damage from most types of attack. But plate armor slows the player considerably and makes it difficult to use ranged weapons. Plate is also the most expensive to create, as it requires plates on top of chainmail, which is added to a leather jerkin. Please note: the leather jerkin is a component for Brigandine, Chain, Scale, and Plate armors, while the Leather Armor is a "finished armor". Both items can be worn as armor, but they offer very different protective values.
Different materials may be made into different types of armors. The material used affects the durability of the armor. So even if a player doesn't have the desired material at the moment, players can choose an armor type that matches the material resources obtained.

{| class="wikitable sortable"
The armor system is extremely complicated, with eight variables governing each armor piece's protection properties. The most important variables are relative and flat protection, and protection tier. Those three numbers are most of what changes between armors.
In total the variables are:
 
* Protection tier
** Relative protection
*** Per tier relative protection loss for high damage tier
*** Per tier relative protection loss for low damage tier
** Flat damage reduction
*** Per tier flat damage reduction loss for high damage tier
*** Per tier flat damage reduction loss for low damage tier
* High damage tier resistant

=== High damage tier resistant ===
The armor system is extremely complicated, with eight variables governing each armor piece's protection properties. The most important variables are relative and flat protection, and protection tier. Those three numbers are most of what changes between armors.
High Damage Tier Protection halves the 15% protection loss.(It fully works with the Steel Plate Armor.)<!--T:15-->
In total the variables are:
* Relative protection
* Per tier relative protection loss for high damage tier
* Per tier relative protection loss for low damage tier
* Flat damage reduction
* Per tier flat damage reduction loss for high damage tier
* Per tier flat damage reduction loss for low damage tier
* High damage tier resistant
* Protection tier
