Armour is perhaps the most essential adventuring gear you need, as it helps 

keeping you alive and protect your body in combat. Different types of armour 

have varying protection rate (AC), and they can also have different 

addaffects. There are many different addaffects that can be found on pieces of 

armour and they may vary in strength and amount. Depending on what Class you 

belong to some addaffects are of more use than others. Warriors may look for 

hit-and damroll; mages for mana, wiz and cha; thieves for dex and int. 

Occasionally a piece of armor can also have an innate spell put on it, for 

instance detect_invis, or sense_life.


Armour of course covers parts or all of your body depending on what wear_locs 

they cover. Not all races have the same wear_locs, but they all have the same 

number. For instance a race that has horns and a tail, will lose two other 

wear_locs to compensate for this. Also beware of leaving any bodyparts without 

armour as the opponents will strike on all different bodyparts, looking for a 

weak spot. Below is a list of the bodyparts, and what wear_locs are covering 

them.


Top center: neck 1, neck 2, head, face, eyes, ear right, ear left, horns, 

antenna

Top left: finger left, hands, arms, shield, wrist left, hold, about 

Top right: finger right, hands, arms, shield, wrist right, hold, about 

Center: neck 1, neck 2, body, shield, about, waist, tail 

Lower left: legs, feet, legs 2, feet 2, about, ankle left, tail 

Lower right: legs, feet, legs 2, feet 2, about, ankle right, tail 


AS you can see the positions overlap, so that for instance neck is both 

covering center (torso) and top center (head).
