[QUOTE="Matt_Rourke, post: 3058414, member: 44644"] Well, doesn't Ironwood spell just change the properties of wood to be like that of steel? So far as I understand the rules, the druids don't just have armor check penalties when wearing metal armor, but they can't cast any druid spells while wearing it, or for 24 hours. This is far more detrimental than the penalties to wizards or sorcerers, for instance, who just take fail percentages. [Edit: I reread your post. Druids don't get heavy proficiency, so they'd need to take the feat or get penalties for non-metal heavy armor. Got it.] Can druids wear things like ankheg armor without breaking their oath? You mentioned dragonhide as a druid option that is not oath-breaking. Are there stone armors or other heavy armors available to druids already? If there are, I'd imagine the druids could use chitin armor and the like... though the prevalence of such equipment in my setting makes me leary. [/QUOTE]
