'''Armour''' is a type of [[equipment]] that provides bonuses to the wearer's [[Armour Class]] (AC), decreasing their chance of being hit by attacks. | |||
''' | == Categories of armour == | ||
Each armour has a type that, generally speaking, determines its Armour Class and appearance. Each armour type also belongs to one of three categories: ''light'', ''medium'' or ''heavy''. | |||
; {{SmallIcon|Light Armour Icon.png}} Light armour : Provides some protection without sacrificing mobility. Creatures wearing light armour add their full Dexterity modifier to their AC. | |||
; {{SmallIcon|Medium Armour Icon.png}} Medium armour : Provides moderate protection, but hinders mobility. Creatures wearing medium armour add their Dexterity modifier to their AC, up to a maximum of +2. Some medium armour types also give [[disadvantage]] on [[Stealth]] checks. | |||
; {{SmallIcon|Heavy Armour Icon.png}} Heavy armour : Provides maximum protection, but severely hinders mobility. Creatures wearing heavy armour do not add their Dexterity modifier to their AC and have disadvantage on Stealth checks. | |||
In addition to these three categories, [[shields]] are a type of armour equipped in the character's off-hand. | |||
= | == Armour proficiency == | ||
In order to wear an armour efficiently, the wearer needs [[proficiency]] with that armour's category. A creature that wears armour it lacks proficiency with cannot cast [[spells]], and has disadvantage on all of its [[ability checks]], [[saving throws]], and [[attack rolls]]. | |||
Similarly to other armour, shields require the wearer to have proficiency with shields. | |||
Additionally, some [[helmets]], [[gloves]], and [[boots]] also require proficiency with a certain category of armour. | |||
=== | === Sources of armour proficiency === | ||
Armour proficiency is generally gained from starting [[class]], [[race]] or [[feats]]. | |||

Armour proficiency with lighter categories is always inherited, meaning that a creature proficient with heavy armour is always proficient with light and medium armour. | |||
