Dwarves with this skill will be [[Speed|slowed]] by heavy armor less than usual, in proportion to the skill level. Armor user skill is gained when a [[dwarf]] wearing armor is successfully hit in combat, either [[sparring]] or in the field, wrestling or with a [[weapon]]. |
The armor user skill reduces the effective weight of all items that are worn but not any items inside a worn object (like the items carried in a [[backpack]] or presumably a [[quiver]]). It has no effect at Novice level, but at <nolabel> level, it decreases the weight of worn items by 3/16ths. Each additional level of skill decreases the weight of items by another 1/16th, up to a maximum of 16/16ths (making the armor weightless) if a creature is a legendary armor user. | The armor user skill reduces the effective weight of all items that are worn but not any items inside a worn object (like the items carried in a [[backpack]] or presumably a [[quiver]]).
