Wooden Breasplate???

[loviatarfrostbringer]

I thought I saw a write-up (or suggested stats) for a breastplate made of wood. Anyone know what the armor bonus et al is?

I wanna know cuz I am playing a druid who would really like to Ironwood a set and I need to know what the stats are in regular form.

Thx,

I think there was information on wooden armour in the Dragon magazine that focussed on elves. No clue as to the issue number, though.

I wouldn't think it would be possible in 'normal' form. The plate would need to be unreasonably think to provide any protection, and the maiile parts would be worthless. Plus the construction would be different for a wooden breastplate than a normal iron breastplate, and the latter design is what you you will want once the wood is as hard as iron.

The wooden breastplate is in magic of Faerun. Its called a duskwood breastplate. The wood itself is almost magical and it provides the same protection as a normal breastplate.

Or it could be made out of ironwood
