Knave's Heavy Garb

Understand Knave’s Heavy Garb’s medium-armour classification and compare its maximum-Health bonus with Azure Puresteel Plate.

My journey
A heavy, patchwork armour made by untrained hands, yet it's capable of stopping cold and steel.

A medium chest piece despite the Heavy Garb name

Knave’s Heavy Garb is classified as medium armour despite its name. Its +5% maximum Health supports a straightforward survival setup, with no parry, critical-hit or ability-cast trigger attached to that bonus.

At base values it provides 46 armour and weighs 6.3. Azure Puresteel Plate provides 74 armour at 10.7 weight, but replaces the maximum-Health effect with bonuses to blood drinking, animal damage and charge restoration from parries.

Keep the garb when you value the Health bonus and lower weight more than the plate’s specialized effects. If changing armour classes, compare the complete loadout and its penalties as well as the chest armour number.
