Armor: Protection & Resistances

Understand armor types, protection, and resistances in Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon to optimize your character's defense.

Armor is your primary defense against the dangers of Avalon. It comes in different weight classes, each offering varying levels of physical and magical protection, along with potential bonuses to resistances or other stats. Your choice of armor should al with your playstyle and the threats you anticipate.

Armor Weight Classes:

• Light Armor (Leather, Cloth): Offers low physical defense but high mobility, often providing bonuses to dodge chance, stamina regeneration, or Wyrdness resistance. Ideal for Rangers and Acolytes.
• Medium Armor (Chainmail, Reinforced Leather): A balanced choice, providing decent physical defense without severely impacting mobility. Often offers a mix of defensive and offensive bonuses. Suitable for Sentinels or hybrid builds.
• Heavy Armor (Plate, Scale): Provides the highest physical defense and damage reduction but significantly reduces mobility and stamina regeneration. Best for Warriors and tanks.

Beyond physical defense, pay attention to elemental resistances (fire, ice, lightning) and Wyrdness resistance. Equipping a full set of matching armor can sometimes unlock powerful set bonuses. Always aim to keep your armor repaired, as damaged armor provides reduced protection.
