Cost of a Magical Mithril Shirt

[Kalshane]

Yea, the Mithril Shirt is Adventurer Jammies.

Everybody should have one, really, even the wizard if he's not 12th level with a rod of Lesser Extend.

Because we all know that if the GM says you should set up the campsite on the battlemat ... it's not a good night in PC-Land.

Pretty much. In games I've played, any mithral (or even regular chain) shirts the party runs across once the rogue, bard and/or ranger have one gets handed off to the party tanks so they have something to sleep in.

This is the first lesson I learned as a PC.

I have kindly passed it along to my players.

Interetingly, spiked mithril chain shirts don't hurt your bedrolls at all. Your sleeping partner on the other hand...

I don't think that spiked mithril chain provides the kind of "protection" that applies to that situation.

 

[irdeggman]

Yes. And I think irdeggman will agree (he probably just had a typo).

Actually a brain skip.

100 + 1000 + 1000 = 2100 not 2200.

Well, it is a form of grappling...

This is a Rogue 3/Ranger 2 that's grabbing the shirt. Definitely a good light armour to have.

Did anyone take the time to make the chain shirt masterwork or is that included in the mithril part?

 

[Beckett]

Mithral (and most special materials) include masterwork in their price. So 1100 gets you a Mithral Chain Shirt that is masterwork.

It's also worth noting that Mithral's reduction of armour check penalty includes the reduction provided by the masterwork quality - so when you make a mithral armour, its ACP is reduced by 3 compared to a mundane suit of the same armour, not a masterwork one.
