Though referred to as a breastplate, this type of armor consists of several pieces of plate or Half Plate armor that protect the torso, chest, neck, and sometimes the hips and lower legs. It strategically grants some of the protection of plate while allowing greater flexibility and speed.
Armor Specialisation Effects
The sturdy plate provides no purchase for a cutting edge.
Medium Armor: You gain resistance to slashing damage equal to 1 + the value of the armor's potency rune.
