-DeSoya, I donīt argue with you over the chainshirt. Looking at the stats, itīs truelly one of the best armours in the game actually. I donīt know why they even bothered with adding chainmail or scalemail actually. The logic progression would be chainshirt/hide(becuase of the poor druids)/breastplate. And then onwards.
Also compaire the Splint mail with the banded mail. Nobody would ever think of getting a splint mail really. The naded mail is so much better...
I really womder what they thought of making thoose armours really. My idea was that if you want a bit better AC and are willing to loose some of your movement and donīt have the high dex, the breastplate is an option. You might say that breastplate is the best mediumatmour, but also the only medium armour worth itīs name!
The scalemail for example is only if you are low on money.

I would take weaponfocus (prefered weapon) and cleave.
