I'm starting a warmie and was wondering if leather main armor with HC head/hands was a viable option. I plan on keeping stealths on level with combats and was hoping I'd be able to do that with this combination.
I'll be training shield, HE/2HE, and LX probably (maybe LT throwing blades...) Would anyone care to offer advice/suggestions on armor setup for stealths? I suppose I could remove all armor except the shield. Or I could avoid stealths and go the tank route training HP/LP, except that my character is a gnome and the weight issue might be a problem starting off. Thanks.

>>What did Bobby use?<<
LC forged chain shirt, HC visored chain helm from Riverhaven, HC forged gloves, HC forged greaves, and a small tanned buckler.
This combination worked great and had his stealths on level though celps anyway, but that was before the changes to armor/stealth hindrance. I've tried a barbarian in the same set up and had difficulty hiding after the changes were implemented, so I'm not sure which way to go to train stealths on a survival tertiary character now.

Leather main with HC head and hands, I assume, would be doable - though I'm curious why you'd go HC over LC. LC has lower stealth hindrance.
You may want to think about a 3 armor setup. Leather coat, LC head and hands, cloth pants. This'll keep your stealth hindrance relatively low, as the cloth pants will offset the LC head and hands.

I chose the HC for a little more protection from those stupid eye and hand stuns. It seems to work fairly well in some of the other characters that I've used it with, but I haven't played a warmie in quite a while. Also, as far as I know, there aren't any LC helms available that cover head,neck, eyes.

>There was also one at the recent fest that was nearly identical but with slightly lower hindrance.
Double post...
Yeah, there were actually two. The zombie-looking one, and one from Emanda's shop. They basically had a forged LC appraisal but covered head, neck, and eyes.

Neutral chain and plate are definitely still part of the system.
