{{hatnote|Main article: [[Weapons]]}}Weapons serve the purpose of dealing damage to various things, ranging from doors and crates to monsters and NPCs.  Your weapon of choice determines your base [[Damage Roll]] before bonuses.  For example, a dagger may do 1d4 damage (one four-sided dice), meaning 1 to 4 points of damage before bonuses are applied.  On the other hand, a two-handed greatsword may do 2d6 damage (two six-sided dice), for a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 12 before bonuses.

== '''Armors, Clothing and Shields''' ==

In addition, weapons can have various properties such as Heavy, Finesse, Light, and so on.  See the main Weapons page linked above for details.
'''[[Armor]]''' is a type of [[Equipment]] that provides bonuses to the characters' [[Armour Class]] and decrease chances of being hit by enemies.  


== Clothing, Armour, and Shields ==
There are three types of armors, such as:
 
* [[Armor#Light_Armor|Light Armors]]
* [[Armor#Medium_Armor|Medium Armors]]
* [[Armor#Heavy_Armor|Heavy Armors]]


=== Clothing ===
=== Clothing ===
{{hatnote|Main article: [[Clothing]]}}Clothing normally provides no protection, though magical pieces of Clothing may provide many benefits.
----
'''[[Clothing]]''' are type of equipment that provide no protection against damages, but they allow classes with no proficiency in armor to cast [[Spell]]s in combat such as [[Sorcerer]] and [[Wizard]].


Classes without any [[Armour#Armour Proficiency|Armour Proficiency]] such as [[Sorcerer]] and [[Wizard]] wear Clothing instead of Armour so they can cast [[Spells]] in and out of combat. Wearing Armour without the corresponding Proficiency also imposes a number of other penalties.
* [[Clothing#List_Of_Clothing|All Clothing]]
 
One can gain additional Armour Proficiency by taking appropriate Feats at Level 4, such as [[Lightly Armoured]], [[Moderately Armoured]] and [[Heavily Armoured]].  However, each level of heaviness has the previous level as a prerequisite.  For example, in order to be able to pick the Heavily Armoured Feat, your character must already have Medium Armour Proficiency from some source.
 
=== Armour ===
{{hatnote|Main article: [[Armour]]}}Armour offers the character an improved base [[Armour Class]] to decrease the chance of being hit. When wearing Armour, your Armour Class becomes that of the piece of Armour you're wearing. In other words, it overrides your base Armour Class, before bonuses from Dexterity, Shields, spell effects, etc. are applied.
 
There are three types of worn armour: Light, Medium, and Heavy. Shields are also treated as armour, although they do not split into any sub-types. You need the corresponding [[Armour#Armour Proficiency|Armour Proficiency]] to be able to use a specific type of Armour without penalties.


=== Shields ===
=== Shields ===
{{hatnote|Main article: [[Shields]]}}Shields provide a bonus to [[Armour Class]] to decrease the chance of being hit by enemies.  Your character doesn't need to be actively holding the equipped shield to get the AC bonus; it's enough that the shield is equipped in its melee off-hand slot.  I.e., a character with a sword and shield in its melee weapon slots and a longbow in its ranged weapon slots will benefit from the shield's AC bonus even while using the bow.
----
 
'''[[Shield]]''' is a type of [[Equipment]] that provides bonuses to characters' [[Armour Class]] and decreases chances of being hit by enemies.  
Choosing the [[Feat]] “Moderately Armoured” grants Proficiency with Shields in addition to Medium Armour.  However, you must already have Light Armour Proficiency to be able to choose that Feat.
