+====== Armor Tiers ======
+{{ rpd:images:armor_tiers.png|Armor Tiers }}
+**Armor Tiers** refer to the classification system used for armor items in Remixed Dungeon, determining their overall protection level and basic attributes.
+==== Description ====
+Armor in Remixed Dungeon is classified into 5 distinct tiers, each with progressively better protection and weight. The tier system determines the armor level, defense rating, and weight of the armor piece.
+==== Tier Classifications ====
+The tiers are as follows:
+  * **Tier 1 (Cloth Armor):** Basic protection, lowest weight (Armor Level: 1)
+  * **Tier 2 (Leather Armor):** Light protection, moderate weight (Armor Level: 2)
+  * **Tier 3 (Mail Armor):** Medium protection, moderate weight (Armor Level: 3)
+  * **Tier 4 (Scale Armor):** Good protection, higher weight (Armor Level: 4)
+  * **Tier 5 (Plate Armor):** Maximum protection, highest weight (Armor Level: 5)
+==== Attributes by Tier ====
+  * **Armor Level:** Directly correlates to the tier number (1-5), determining damage reduction
+  * **Weight:** Generally increases with tier, affecting movement speed
+  * **Price:** Selling price is typically calculated as tier * 20 gold
+  * **Durability:** All armor types have the same basic durability mechanics regardless of tier
+==== Special Armor Types ====
+Some armor does not follow the standard tier system:
+  * **Class Armors:** Unique armors for each hero subclass (e.g., Gladiator armor for Warrior subclass)
+  * **Artifact Armors:** Special armor-like artifacts with unique mechanics
+  * **Dragon Armors:** Special high-tier armors with special properties
+==== Enchantments ====
+All armor tiers can be enchanted with glyphs that provide special effects, regardless of their tier.
