Desirability

Lear's hauberk is an extremely unusual piece of equipment, filling four equipment slots in exchange for a massive amount of AC. To wear it, you must be able to wear chain mail, caps, boots, and gauntlets. It is by no means an ideal piece of armour; the chain mail base armour is cumbersome, and losing that much equipment access will rule out many useful intrinsics and resistances. That being said, a character who finds it early on, possibly before finding equipment to fill the extra slots with anyway, can suddenly find himself absurdly well-protected against the threats of the early game.

History

Lear's hauberk was added in 0.13, replacing Lear's chain mail.
