Armor/Helmets

Overview

Armor reduces how much damage the protagonists take from Melee and Ranged sources. There are two slots for armor; one for a Helmet, and one for a Body. Each Armor is unique and designed for different playstyles, providing differing protection against melee damage and ranged damage; also known as their MDEF and RDEF stats, respectively.

Armors additionally sometimes have unique, small bonuses (or even detriments) that further lean into the playstyle they incentivize. This most often affects small parameters, like running speed or stagger chances, unlike Trinkets, which provide more radical overhauls.

Further, some armor sets also include set bonuses, even further incentivizing the playstyle they promote.

Rough Concepts

Armor

Hunter's Vest - 4MD | 2RD

Made of warm leather, this vest staves off the cold well but doesn't seem to prove much worth in combat.

Archer's Scarf - 2MD | 4RD

This beat-up old scarf has seen more than its fair share of hunted game.

Chainmail Vest - 8MD | 3RD

Although the chains are a bit uncomfortable, this fits snuggly under your armor for a little bit more protection.

Thief's Garbs - 4 MD | 12RD

Tainted with an aura of thievery, you can't help but feel a tingle of kleptomania arise when you wear this.

Fairy Tutu - 4MD | 6RD

+ 10% resistance against all damage

Getting Zedekiah to put this on will take a bit of work, but it's so cute your foes will have no choice but to go a little easy on you.

Magic Vest - 5MD | 8RD

+ 33% resistance against Magic attacks

Although this magical, silk garb feels comfortable under your armor, it doesn't quite feel like it provides much protection against direct attacks.

Glass Plates - 15MD | 12RD

One would think armor made of glass would be completely impractical, but the expert craftsmanship behind it gives it boastful defensive power.

Rock Armor - 30MD | 30RD

+Super Armor; cannot be Staggered and high resistance to being Knocked Down

-30% movement speed

Wearing this makes you feel as sturdy as a boulder. Just as sluggish as one, too.

+Dodge faster and remain intangible longer

This garb from a distant land was made with exceptional agility in mind. It provides poor protection, but allows for free movement.

Helmet

Leather Hat - 2MD | 3RD

A commoner's choice of headwear. Barely considered "fashionable", but it keeps warm.

Archer's Bycocket - 3MD | 2RD

Iconic headwear worn by archers everywhere. It smells just slightly of wildlife.

Metal Mask - 8MD | 2RD

This metallic mask is great for absorbing blows directly to your cranium, but it's a little bit uncomfortable.

Thief's Cowl - 5MD | 10RD

This menacing looking cowl radiates an aura of lawlessness, not to mention how comfortable it is.

Princess Tiara - 5MD | 5RD

Even hidden in his hair, Zedekiah can't help but feel ashamed to wear this children's toy... But it looks so cute!

Circlet of Minor Protection - 2MD | 12RD

+ 12% resistance against Magic attacks

This circlet was created as a form of protection by priests to their scribes exchanging messages between chapters.
