Hi, first post so be nice please :)
will i ever be able to hide in hp/lp setup?
its forged, im a warmage, about 100 in both hp and lp.
right now i get a message like
you cant hide in all this armor.
does that go away eventually with more ranks?
right now im training stealths with another armor setup (im training all armors)
thanks in advance.

Short answer? No.
Long answer? No, not technically. However, if you want to train plate and hiding simultaneously, it's easy enough to wear something light on the head (like a chain helm) and plate mail on the rest of the body: simply remove your armor with 0 roundtime, hide, and re-equip it with zero roundtime. Write a simple script to do it
Right now the Moon Mage place on the "combat pet totem pole" is the part that's sunk into the earth to lower the pole's center of gravity.

Yes, you can hide in an all-plate setup. It takes something like 100 ranks of stealths, IIRC. However, you'll always be under such a heavy stealth penalty that you won't be winning any stealth contests against even remotely near-level opponents.
A cleric using CoZ can bump the stealth hindrance back up to a high enough level that you're unable to hide, too.
Tishra says, "We had a tie, get over it."
The hammer lands an overwhelming strike that knocks the larynx clear back to the vertebrae (So much for last words!).

I play a HP/LP wearing cleric and train stealth. I wear it for defensive training, and take it off for offensive training (mainly bows). I have no intention of ever actually trying to hide while wearing HP/LP.

With about 250 ranks in heavy plate and around 50 hiding I was unable to hide in full HP with my old Barbarian.
With around the same ranks in HP, a bit over 100 stalking (from newly-released hunt) and 20-some ranks of hiding I discovered quite unexpectedly that I could hide with this Barbarian.
Stealth ranks are important, armor ranks may or may not be.

This for sure, you need to outclass your opponents perception....however the way hiding trains you probably can still train hiding, but I never go full-plate so I don't know.
