Desirability

Maxwell's patent armour is only worth considering for characters willing to lose access to their spells and the ability to blink or teleport to safety, as it takes far too long to remove it in the middle of a fight. Apart from those very significant downsides, it is otherwise an excellent piece of armour, offering extremely solid physical protection, magic resistance, and a fairly rare, very useful ego. Wear at your own risk.
