Monks wearing armour (Keldorns)

Daniel · 09-17-2002, 08:01 PM

It came to my attention today that monks can where Keldorns armour, some of you may probabally know this but I thought it worth a mention, it might come in handy for players who have just started a new monk and don't have a very good AC yet.

(It didn't come in very handy for me though, I was level 40 when I was told of this and at lvl 40 my base AC is -10 so the armour was pretty much obsolete)

NOTE: To wear it make sure your monk doesn't have any stats lower than Keldorns as the armour requires keldorns stats or higher to be worn.

well it is quite useful... it has the ability of free action... so you won't have to worry abt hold/paralyse effects...

and the minimum requirement for monks wearing keldorn armour is

15 STR
17 CON
12 INT
18 CHA

Which means you could be in trouble if you want high dex and wis

I've never found the need, always used BoD AC3 before my natural AC got better. Just wondering though, does this change the look of your avatar?

It is a known bug, and if I am not mistaken, the latest patches fixes this anomaly.

Most Monks who keep the armor do so not for the AC, but for its Saving Throws and Free Action. The downside to wearing the armor is that it prevents Stealth.
