The main reason they seem to have limited light armor is to give a nod to heavy armor strength characters. If they gave a light armor that gave +3, then that equals heavy armor equivalent with dex as the primary statistic. That would make Dex even more valuable than it already is. I don't like rules that focus on balance to the detriment of verisimilitude and tradition, but it is what it is. Mithril armor should definitely reduce armor type in my opinion. As you said, I can just make something up to work in this edition and be done with it. It's one of the things I really like about 5E. I can make unique items easily and hand them out. I've been customizing a lot of magic items for my games. I find it far more enjoyable than handing out items according to level.</p></blockquote><p></p>
