| Reduces the penalties by up to 1/3rd, or up to 1/2 with grand mastery. Warforged reduce them by another 1/10th, for a maximum of 60% penalty reduction (meaning that with 50% heavy armor, you would take 20% penalties, i.e., -10% dodge, -5% hitroll, 10% spell failure, ...). Note that the "-10%" dodge only means about -3% effectively, i.e., -10% of 30%. I've updated help heavy armor and help mastery bonuses. You can see what percentages of the heavy armor bonus (25% damage reduction) and listed penalties applies to you with the percentages command, provided you are wearing any heavy armor. |
