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 it isn't penalized by the wearer's Deformed mutation.
However, bardings give a flat penalty of -2 EV. This cannot be reduced by strength or Armour skill. This will not penalize spellcasting, stealth, etc.
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.
