Light Armour

Light Armour are items which can be equipped on a character which offer armour protection without adding too much weight to the wearer. This armour tends to provide buffs to stats to compensate for the lack of protection as compared to medium and heavy armour.

A large portion of light armour consists of items made out of Leather. Unlike Clothing, most light armour must be learned through a Blueprint. Light armour can be made with a Clothing Bench, Leather Armour Crafting Bench, or a Heavy Armour Smithy.

The following values assume [Standard] quality.
