Basics

Armor is one of three vital stats that every character and most creatures utilize for damage mitigation in Combat, represented by a yellow bar. Armor provides 1 point of damage mitigation for every 25 points of armor remaining.

During combat armor is depleted as the player or creature takes damage, resulting in the gradual loss of mitigation potential. Some abilities and attacks specifically target and deplete armor, particularly acid type damage as used by Slimes and Acid Spiders.

Items that are primarily responsible for a characters armor stat include: head, chest, legs, gloves and boots. Other items may be randomly generated to grant small amounts of armor. Cows, wolves and spiders have unique armor items.

Types of Armor

There are currently four classes of armor: Cloth, Leather, Metal and Organic. The following list are generalities, especially for the combat refresh boost, and as with everything during beta subject to change.

todo: Include at least craft-able subtypes (as a brief description linking out to appropriate crafting skills) ie. warm vs evasive vs base leather.
