Armour (skill)

The Armour skill improves the effectiveness of your armour and reduces the penalties associated with the more cumbersome varieties of body armour.

AC bonus from Armour skill

If you're interested in the actual math the game uses, see the AC calculations page. Otherwise, the short version is that each level in the Armour skill increases the base AC of a piece of armour by a little over 4%.

The Armour skill also partially defrays your armour's Evasion penalty (see the Evasion page for more details).
