==''' Types You can check the extended statistics of Armor''' ==every piece of armor in your inventory:
[[Gauntlets]]* it weights 1000 grams,
[[Boots]]* it has '''A'''rmor '''V'''alue (AV) of 13.
== AV Rating ==Armor value is a number that tells just how well a particular piece of armor will protect you. Higher values obviously mean better damage reduction. However, note that even a bad armor is better than none, because having any armor equipped in a slot greatly reduces the rick of critical hits against the given body part.
