A barding is a special type of armour designed to cover the lower half of nagas and armataurs. It fills the feet slot in place of boots, which these species cannot wear. It offers significantly more AC than ordinary boots, and its AC bonus is not penalized by the wearer's innate Deformed mutation.
Like body armour, bardings impact the wearer's EV slightly (-2 EV; the penalty cannot be reduced by high Armour skill). But unlike regular encumbrance, it does not affect spellcasting, stealth, or ranged weapon speed.
Bardings can be maximally enchanted to +4 using scrolls of enchant armour.
Bardings can carry the following egos:
Artefact bardings can also spawn with these egos:
History
- Prior to 0.30, artefact bardings couldn't spawn with the see invisible or rampaging egos.
- With the removal of centaurs in 0.26, all bardings were folded into one type of item wearable by both nagas and the new palentonga species.
