I would like to start this guide simple and, with feedback and support of other crafters, fill this data out for all armor and types. I will gladly purchase one of each piece of armor type from someone if they are interested in crafting or have the UNUSED magic version (all levels). The intention is to have both magic and GM ratings listed here. If you have something NOT listed here already, contact me in game, IRC or forum PM please and I will purchase it or require a moment to borrow said gear to see the data on my own character. I have a GM Parry character for evaluating the AR of shields. So to begin, here is what I have found with my Tailor. (I don't have a Smithy yet) Suits include Tunic, Legs, Arms, Gloves and Gorget (caps are all leather, as there are no studded caps). The number is the TOTAL AR granted. Leather - 18 Leather w/cap - 21 Studded Leather - 21 Studded Leather w/cap - 24 Spined Leather - 27 Spined Leather w/cap - 31 Spined Studded Leather - 29 Spined Studded Leather w/cap - 34 Horned Leather - 29 Horned Leather w/cap - 34 Horned Studded Leather - 32 Horned Studded Leather w/cap - 37 Barbed Leather - 32 Barbed Leather w/cap - 37 Barbed Studded Leather - 34 Barbed Studded Leather w/cap - 40
