⛑️5e - Armor⛑️

The Armor table lists the game’s main armor. The table includes the cost and weight of armor, as well as the following details:

Category: Every type of armor falls into a category: ⛑️Light, ⛑️Medium, or ⛑️Heavy . The category determines how long it takes to don or doff the armor (as shown in the table).

Armor Class (AC): The table’s Armor Class column tells you what your base 🛡️AC is when you wear a type of armor. For example, if you wear Leather Armor, your base AC is 11 plus your Dexterity modifier, whereas your AC is 16 in Chain Mail.

Properties: Any properties an armor has are listed in the Properties column. Each property is defined in the ⛑️Armor Properties section.

Armor Training

Anyone can don armor or hold a Shield, but only those with training can use them effectively, as explained below. A character’s class and other features determine the character’s armor training. A monster has training with any armor in its stat block.

Light, Medium, or Heavy Armor

If you wear Light, Medium, or Heavy armor and lack training with it, you have DISADV on any 🎲D20 Test that involves STR or DEX, and you can’t cast spells.

Shield

You gain the 🛡️AC benefit of a Shield only if you have training with it.

One at a Time

A creature can wear only one suit of armor at a time and wield only one Shield at a time.
