| * You can cast this spell on all party members then dismiss the caster from the party and this buff will persist.
| |
| ** If cast by a {{Class|Wizard}}, this spell must remain [[Spells#Prepared Spells|Prepared]] by the party member who cast it; removing Mage Armour from the caster's Prepared Spells list will immediately remove the buff from all party members whom the caster applied it to. If applied by ''using'' (not scribing) a [[Scroll_of_Mage_Armour|scroll]], the caster does not need to keep this spell Prepared to maintain the buff.
| |
| * If a party member who has Mage Armour equips a piece of Armour, the buff will be removed. Mage Armour will not be reapplied when unequipping that Armour; it will need to be cast on them once more.
| |
| | |
| | |
| * The normal base {{Armour Class}} is {{Code|10 + [[Dexterity|Dexterity modifier]]}}, while this changes it to {{Code|13 + Dexterity Modifier}}.
| |
| ** You will still get bonuses from other sources that don't change your base armour class like +1 AC [[robes]], {{RarityItem|Bracers of Defence}}, {{Cond|Shield of Faith}}, etc.
| |
| * [[Gloves]] and [[Helmets]] marked as {{SAI|Light Armour|Light}}, {{SAI|Medium Armour|Medium}} or {{SAI|Heavy Armour}} count as armour, and will prevent Mage Armour from working.
| |
| * Mage Armour works while wearing a {{SAI|Shields|Shield}}.
| |
| * {{Cond|Mage Armour}}, {{SAI|Draconic Resilience}}, {{SAI|Unarmoured Defence (Barbarian)}}, {{SAI|Unarmoured Defence (Monk)}} and {{Cond|Barkskin}} all change your base armour class and therefore does not stack.
| |
| ** If you have multiple of these you will only get the benefit of the one that gives the most {{Armour Class}}.
| |
| *Mage Armour can work while in {{SAI|Wild Shape}} as long as you have no armour equipped in any slot before transforming.
| |
| **This effect only works on forms with a base {{Armour Class}} of less than 13.
| |
| *Mage Armour does not count as wearing armour for things like {{SAI|Unarmoured Movement}}, {{Pass|Become the Bulwark|item=Bracers of Defence}} and {{SAI|Defence}}.
| |
| | |
| * The incantation for Mage Armour is '''Mactē Virtutē''', the Latin command "honour with virtue!"
