'''Body armor ''' is a piece of [[armor]] that covers the torso of the [[player]]. It is one of the most important pieces of armor, as most of the enemy attacks will end up damaging your torso.
It comes in two variants: Chain mail and "Solid". Solid armor is identified as "plate mail" if it is made of a metal alloy, and simply as "armor" if made of a different [[List of materials|material]]. Chain mail is simply "chainmail" no matter what it's made of.
== Types of Body Armor ==
=== Chain Mail ===
Special body armors include:'''Chain mail''' is the lighter, more flexible armor. With comparable [[materials]], it will have slightly lower AV than plate mail, but will also weight less and have lesser penalties to [[Dex]] and [[Agi]]. However, as chain mail only generates made of metals, you can frequently find much lighter "plate mail" made of flexible materials such as [[leather]] - though the AV of such light armor will be very low.
* the === Plate Mail === '''Plate mail'''can actually either be called "plate mail" if made of any metal, or simply "armor" if made of a different material (eg. "leather armor" is still "plate mail" type armor). Plate mail is stronger, heavier and less flexible than chain mail, giving it higher AV but also higher penalties to [[Dex]] and [[Agi]]. Plate mails made of metal will have very high AV, but will probably burden any character without massive [[LStr]]. On the other hand, plate mails are also frequently found made of light flexible materials and such armors will be even lighter than chain mails, though their AV will be also considerably lower than of any metal armor. However, if you can obtain a plate mail made of one of the better flexible materials (eg. [[Angel Hair]] or [[Spider Silk]]), those have the best qualities of any normal armor found in the game - they have high AV, low weight and next to no [[attribute]] penalties. == Magical Body Armor == * [[Armor of Great Health]]''' which raises your endurance and likely attracts stronger monsters, === Artifact Body Armor === * [[Ommel Bristler Armor]]* the '''[[Shirt of the Golden Eagle]]''' which is obtained by defeating Oree  == Variants == === CLIVAN === The [[CLIVAN]] [[variant]] of the Blood Daemon King. Essentially a plot device, although it is quite strong and light,game adds several new body armors: * the '''[[Dragon Cuirass]]''' , which is essentially a thicker, heavier , stronger and stronger indestructible body armor with spiked shoulders and AV 18 in its unaltered form ([[LIVAN]] only), and* the '''[[Shirt of the Golden Jaguar]]''' , which gives the wearer telecontrol, polycontrol and haste along with AV 14, and can be found in the Vault in [[Kharaz-Arad ([[LIVAN]] only).
