+====== Armor ======
+{{ rpd:images:armor_cloth.png|Cloth Armor }}
+**Armor** is a type of equipment that provides protection to the [[en:rpd:hero|hero]] in Remixed Pixel Dungeon. Armor reduces the amount of damage the hero receives from enemy attacks and environmental hazards.

+  * **[[en:rpd:strength|Strength Required:]]** Minimum strength needed to wear without penalties
+  * **[[en:rpd:armor|Defense Rate:]]** How much damage is reduced from attacks
+  * **[[en:rpd:upgrading|Level:]]** Quality level that affects stats (from -1 to +15)

+How armor functions in gameplay:
+  * **[[en:rpd:armor_class|Defense Rate]]** - Higher values reduce more damage from physical attacks
+  * **[[en:rpd:strength|Strength Requirement]]** - Wearing armor with insufficient strength causes penalties
+  * **[[en:rpd:armor_penalty|Encumbrance]]** - Heavy armor may reduce accuracy and evasion
+  * **[[en:rpd:upgrading|Upgrading]]** - Armor can be enhanced with [[en:rpd:scroll_of_upgrade_item|Scrolls of Upgrade]] to improve stats
+  * **[[en:rpd:enchantments|Enchantments]]** - Special properties that can be applied to armor
+  * **[[en:rpd:glyphs|Glyphs]]** - Special inscriptions that provide passive bonuses
+==== Armor Classes ====
+Armor follows a tier system based on strength requirement:
+  * **Cloth** - 1 strength required (base armor class: 1)
+  * **Leather** - 6 strength required (base armor class: 3)
+  * **Mail** - 11 strength required (base armor class: 5)
+  * **Scale** - 16 strength required (base armor class: 7)
+  * **Plate** - 21 strength required (base armor class: 9)
+==== Armor Affixes ====
+Armor can have various special properties:
+  * **[[en:rpd:enchantments|Enchantments]]** - Positive or negative enchantments that provide various effects
+  * **[[en:rpd:glyphs|Glyphs]]** - Inscriptions that add special abilities or resistances
