[QUOTE="eryndel, post: 6482570, member: 13120"] Similar to how it was in it's real history. Dammit, don't tell me this 5th edition is a sim game! ;) In regards to the OP, yeah the rarity of full plate, much like magic items, will be very much up to the style and theme of the campaign and the GM. If you're playing in the Horde of the Dragon Queen/Rise of Tiamat, I'd recommend as an alternative, getting in good with one of the factions throughout the game. The Order of the Gauntlet would probably fit your character themes pretty well. And when you've helped them out with their problems, they can maybe help you out with yours (notably, the lack of stylish armor). If you're playing in an Adventurer's League game, there's even some mechanical benefits for allying with a faction, so maybe that can be part of turning in a favor. It's good to know people :) Talk to your DM about your goals, so (s)he can help make that happen. [/QUOTE]
