Punka Leathers Reinforcing 11/22/2017 05:34 PM CST
Wondered if a GM can give a view on the Punka Hide Leather, and the armor it makes?

Basically, reinforcing it makes no difference at all to the protection - Is that intended? Thanks!

The coarse leathers are light armor.

The leathers look like they offer protection for the following areas:

right arm
left arm
right leg
left leg
chest
abdomen
back

You feel certain that some coarse punka-hide leathers with a reinforced design appear to impose great (11/15) maneuvering hindrance and fair (5/15) stealth hindrance, offering:
very high (8/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for puncture attacks.
great (9/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for slice attacks.
high (7/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for impact attacks.
very high (8/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for fire attacks.
great (9/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for cold attacks.
high (7/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for electrical attacks.

If you were only wearing some coarse punka-hide leathers with a reinforced design you could expect your maneuvering to be minimally (2/14) hindered and your stealth to be insignificantly (3/14) hindered.

You are certain that the coarse leathers are unusually resilient to damage (16/18), and are in pristine condition (98-100%).

The coarse leathers came from skins that were large in size.
The coarse leathers are moderately soft.
You are certain that the coarse leathers weighs exactly 308 stones.
You are certain that the coarse leathers are worth exactly 330858 Kronars, 264687 Lirums, or 238747 Dokoras.

Thanks for posting this. Have you tried to make any of the shields with punka?

I haven't had a go at a shield, as apparently the elemental protection it offers is wasted

As a side note, I noticed a helmet actually offers a different swing on the app - Different template offering different balances across the numbers


high (7/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for puncture attacks.
very high (8/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for slice attacks.
great (9/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for impact attacks.
very good (6/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for fire attacks.
very great (10/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for cold attacks.
very high (8/15) protection and very good (8/18) damage absorption for electrical attacks.

Reinforcing of punka leather armor? From the looks of the appraisal on that you are looking at an armor that is already at max. Tier 6+ or even close to 8. I know for a fact that the ranger beseech called beseech elanthia to petrify will not raise one stat on that armor, which is because its already at max. That probably means that reinforcing the armor will not do anything additional as it cant be improved past the max for the armor itself. I suspect this is what you are seeing with this armor.

The only difference between this armor and say Capped quest armor is this has higher elemental defenses and what you improve with reinforcing is the physical defenses, which again I suspect are already at max.

Reinforcing always increases the stats, but it will not always be visible in the appraise due to the ranges spanning multiple integer values.
