I'd rather a setup where each armor is its own proficiency, working down a list, such as the following:Leather Armor (AC: 12+Dex) - Leather & Studded LeatherPadded Armor (AC: 13+Dex (+4 max)) - Padded & HideBody Armor (AC: 14+Dex (+3 max)) - Breastplate & Chain ShirtMail Armor (15+Dex (+2 max, 0 min), Stealth Disadvantage) - Scale, Chain, & RingBanded Armor (AC: 16+Dex (+1 max, 0 min), Stealth Disadvantage) - Splint & BandedPlate Armor (AC: 17, Stealth Disadvantage) - PlateEverything Maxes out at AC 17, so none of them are "best," but the heaver armors allow you to ignore a dex penalty at the cost of Disadvantage to Stealth (which you'll likely suck at anyway). Rogues and Warlocks would just get Leather Armor. Barbarians and Druids would get Leather and Padded. Bards and Rangers would get up to Body Armor. Clerics would get up to Mail Armor. Fighters and Paladins would get everything (or possibly up to Banded, with Plate coming later).The Armor Profiency Feats would have to be expanded, of course, with Shields being added with Body Armor or Mail Armor.</blockquote>
