Black bronze body armour

What it does

• Goes in the body slot.
• Power 9 (high quality: 13). On a weapon it raises your accuracy and max hit. On any other piece it raises your evasion and cuts the damage you take.
• Durability 3: it can survive 3 defeats. Gear only wears down when you are defeated. A damaged piece breaks if you unequip it.
• A high-quality piece gives 1.5 times each bonus, rounded down.

Reinforce

Reinforce it from +1 to +10 in the Bank, where it is made. Each level adds 5% of its power and chance to hit, so at +10 its power is 11.3. From +4 each level also uses Polishing grit.

Everything from +0 to +10: 83,160 coins, 45 Tin bar and 29 Polishing grit.

Evolved from

Evolve 1 Bronze body armour at +10 for 180 coins, 1 Bronze core and 5 Bandit scrap. It comes out at +0, in the same quality.

Story

Bronze body armour folded with a bronze core until it turned black. It hits and holds a little better than it should.
