Desirability
Many players consider this the best general-purpose armour: it provides almost as much protection as plate armour, while having an encumbrance rating that will still allow spellcasting. The rF++ it provides is very useful, and the rC- is usually bearable given that cold attacks are generally rarer and less damaging than fire attacks, with a few notable exceptions. Still, it is often best to wait until you have at least one source of cold resistance before wearing fire dragon scales, as taking an extra 50% from cold attacks can be quite dangerous.
