Casters will usually wear something lighter to minimize penalties to spellcasting, and fighters will typically want heavier armour that provides better defenses.

+The ability of '''Kryia's mail coat'''<ref>{{source ref|0.32.0|art-data.txt|1476}}</ref> to double healing from potions is of great use up into the midgame. However, it is ultimately a +7 scale mail with rC+, which is good, but likely not endgame quality. Casters will usually wear something lighter to minimize penalties to spellcasting, and fighters will typically want heavier armour that provides better defenses. And over time, the usefulness of doubled healing wanes. Regardless, for a character lacking in cold resistance or relying heavily on healing as a crutch, Kryia's mail coat is very useful.
 This artefact is more likely to spawn in the early game, where it is more likely to be useful. A +7 scale mail is better than a +0 [[plate armour]].
