Armor

Armor thresholds listed here are base Minor / Major values—add your level when comparing damage. The Armor Score shows how many slots you can mark to step severity down during play.

Quick reminder: Marking one armor slot reduces severity by a single step. Once all slots are spent, you still check thresholds but can't mitigate damage until the armor is repaired or refreshed after a long rest.

Name	Type	Thresholds	Armor Score	Feature
Gambeson	Armor	5 / 11	3	Flexible: +1 to Evasion
Leather Armor	Armor	6 / 13	3	—
Chainmail Armor	Armor	7 / 15	4	Heavy: −1 to Evasion
Full Plate Armor	Armor	8 / 17	4	Very Heavy: −2 to Evasion; −1 to Agility
