Armor

Armor has 5 levels. Similar to the Dark Souls method. Armor can be cloth, light, medium, and heavy. These types of armor give bonuses to speed, dodge, counter attack, and block respectively. Then they can be -1, +0, +1, +2, or +3. Or called novice, apprentice, adept, expert, and master. Armor that are Artifacts may have other bonuses.
The different types of armor have effects on the character's modifier. The armor gives a benefit or a drawback for every 2 points of that armor. For example, wearing 4 pieces of light armor that is +1, gives a total of +4. This means that Dodge is increased by 2 but Counter Attack is decreased by 2 as well. See the table below for details on the Benefits and Drawbacks of armor:

Armor Type	Benefit (for every 2 points)	Drawback (for every two points)
Cloth	Increase Speed by 1 Die Step	Reduce Block by Modifier 1
Light	Increase Dodge Modifier by 1	Reduce Counter Attack Modifier by 1
Medium	Increase Counter Attack Modifier by 1	Reduce Dodge Modifier by 1
Heavy	Increase Block Modifier by 1	Reduce Speed by 1 Die Step

Armor can be crafted using raw materials. Each region of Rhunec has unique materials for crafting and this determines what the final armor looks like. For more information, please see Smithing Mechanic .
Below is a list of the armor in Rhunec, the price, what it modifies, and the base requirement for equipping the armor. The level of the armor increases the price of the armor by 50%, no change, 100% increase (double), 200% increase (triple) and 300% increase (quadruple). So you take the modifier, multiply it by the price, then add that to the original price.
Shields add to the Arms value on a character sheet to increase either block or counter attack. When using a shield, only one handed weapons can be used.
