'''Barding''' is a kind of armour designed to cover the lower half of [[naga]]s and [[centaur]]s (see [[naga barding]] and [[centaur barding]]). It fills the feet slot in place of [[boots]] -- however, it takes longer than boots to put on and take off, and offers more AC (and higher maximum enchantment) than ordinary boots.

Armour made for the scaly midsections of nagas and armataurs.

A barding is a special type of armour designed to cover the lower half of Armataurs and Nagas. It fills the feet slot in place of boots, which these species cannot wear.

While they give significantly more AC than normal boots, 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.
