Flaw armour

From Ancient Anguish Mud Wiki - AAwiki

Special stuff from summoning demons from Flaws House, some very usable armours here. Includes Vambraces, Greaves, and Breastplates.

Effects

Desc Effect
Glowing Blue Absorbs Fire
Glowing Red Absorbs Ice
Glowing White Absorbs Magical
Glowing Yellow Absorbs Poison

Note: The glowing pieces can lose their enchantment after a number of absorbs, as hinted in the id message:

  This is a platemail breastplate (Glowing yellow). It absorbs poison
  attacks. Such powerful magics take a great toll on this armour however, and
  it may well be destroyed in the act of protecting its wearer.
Desc Effect
Arrow Turning Defense against pierce
Blade Turning Defense against slash
Axe Turning Defense against chop
Absorption Defense against crush

Note: As well as the occasional super defense against said damage type, also has better eval.

Desc Effect
Mer Underwater breathing
Woods Better outside
War Damages attackers
Health Occasional healing
Ghost Randomly completely stops damage to bodypart

Note that all pieces seem to weigh 3 from this area regardless of quality.
