Personally, I think half the fun in Layonara is NOT knowing where everything is... It's too easy to check or ask! Anyhow, it'd encourage RPing anyways for people to ask around...Maybe make a few friends
Don't forget guys: Chongo is starting up his Guides That will help a lot of new players in game
Half-plate has a Max DEX of +1. My cleric has a set of it. Likewise, Banded/Splint mail. Chainmail has +2, Chain Shirts have +4, hide/studded leather likewise, leather has +6, and padded armor has +8.I'd have to go in to check, but I believe these are accurate.
