Protection

Armour protects by increasing glance rates and reducing damage taken from hits. The damage taken can be calculated by multiplying the damage that would be taken with no armour with a multiplier. The multiplier is given by the following equation; multiplier = (modifier * ql * ql) / 200000 - (modifier * ql) / 1000 + 0.95, where ql is the armour quality (if the quality is below 2, it is counted as 2) and the modifier is given for the armour types below:

Cloth 7
Leather 8
Studded Leather 9
Chain 10
Drake Hide / Steel Plate 13
Dragon Scale / Adamantine Plate 14
Glimmersteel Plate / Seryll Plate 15
