v0.31 Talk:Leather
Leather Properties
Had an argument with someone, but just to confirm - all leather, no matter the source, has the same protective value when made into armor, right? Dragon leather armor is worth more, but isn't actually more durable or provide more protection than kitten leather? I mean, I know the quality level adds to the Armor User skill or whatnot. (Note to self: investigate mode where dragon leather armor provides fire immunity.) Ancient History 15:39, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
- Leather and chitin are separate materials and actually have different properties, so leather armor does not have the same properties as chitin armor. However, it does appear that all types of leather are equivalent to one another, as the creatures themselves don't appear to alter the properties of their corresponding leather materials - cat leather armor would provide the same protection as elephant leather armor. --Quietust 16:00, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
Chitin
Has anyone been able to use chitin to make leather products besides armor? Chitin crafts, chitin bags? Ancient History 03:31, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
