I'm a little baffled that I couldn't find a single mention of this very odd 'feature' when I searched for it.
Armour, referring to the collective total of your Armour stat, not to individual pieces of equipment you wear.
Each point of Armour reduces incoming melee damage by a % (presumably only by the selected enemy?), lowers dodge % (this penalty may be mitigated by Strength) and lowers spell hit & spell critical hit chance.
This is a REALLY weird system. Even the equipment that's obviously intended for mages (boosts Intelligence, for example) gives significant penalties to my spell hit & spell critical hit chances.
Am I supposed to put points in Strength, even though level ups are very infrequent and I'm very strapped for points? Will Strength even mitigate the magic penalties from Armour?
Am I supposed to just not wear armour at all? I found this cool robe which gives +1 Intelligence, but it renders itself almost completely worthless as it drops my already low spell critical hit chance from 3.5% to 2.5%!
(I wonder if this is why I miss so often with my spells, or if spells are just seriously inaccurate, at least at lower levels...)
