	Armor in ''[[The Domains of Dread]]'' is the main contributing factor to any ~~character's~~ Armor Class~~, otherwise denoted as~~ <code>AC</code>. Attackers must beat a ~~target's~~ <code>AC</code> ~~as part of~~ their attack ~~roll in order~~ to hit and deal damage.		Armor in ''[[The Domains of Dread]]'' occupies the chest equipment slot and is the main contributing factor to any character’s Armor Class or <code>AC</code>. Attackers must beat a target’s <code>AC</code> in order for their attack to hit and deal damage.

	A ~~character's~~ <code>base AC</code> is <code>10 +/- DEX</code>. They may lose their <code>DEX</code> bonus ~~due to external~~ factors, but will always have negative ~~modifiers~~ applied if present. After ~~their~~ <code>base AC</code>, the <code>armor AC</code> ~~bonus~~ of their equipment is applied, then the <code>shield AC</code> of ~~any~~ equipped shield. Duplicate sources of <code>AC</code> that are not <code>untyped AC</code> do not stack, including <code>dodge AC</code> ~~gained~~ from [[Tumble]] or [[Poise]]. For example, a character may have gauntlets that provide <code>+1 shield AC</code>. If they equipped a shield ~~that provided~~ <code>+2 shield AC</code>, ~~they~~ would ~~have~~ <code>+2 shield AC</code>, taking from the highest rather than adding.		A character’s unmodified, <code>base AC</code> is <code>10 +/- DEX</code>. They may lose their <code>DEX</code> bonus from [[Status Effects\|status effects]] or other factors, but will always have a negative <code>DEX</code> applied if present. After <code>base AC</code>, the <code>armor AC</code> of their equipment is applied, then the <code>shield AC</code> of an equipped shield. Duplicate sources of <code>AC</code> that are not <code>untyped AC</code> do not stack, including the <code>dodge AC</code> granted from hard ranks in [[Tumble]] or [[Poise]]. For example a character may have gauntlets that provide <code>+1 shield AC</code>. If they also have an equipped shield providing <code>+2 shield AC</code>, their sheet would reflect <code>+2 shield AC</code>, taking from the highest rather than adding them together. Likewise if the gauntlets were <code>+1 deflection AC</code>, they would have <code>3 bonus AC</code> in total between it and the equipped shield.

	~~Characters may attempt to wear any armor as there~~ are no armor proficiencies in ''The Domains of Dread.'' ~~However~~, ~~there may be maluses associated with equipping~~ armor ~~without enough of that~~ armor ~~family's prerequisite~~ [[Attributes\|attribute]]. Should a character wear armor they do not meet the prerequisites for, they lose <code>-3 armor AC</code> and any <code>dodge AC</code>.		There are no armor proficiencies in ''The Domains of Dread'', allowing any character to attempt to wear any armor. However certain armor families have other prerequisites, like a minimum [[Attributes\|attribute]] requirement. Some individual armor species may also impose prerequisites, like a [[Classes and Archetypes\|class]] archetype requirement. Should a character wear armor they do not meet the prerequisites for, they lose <code>-3 armor AC</code> and any <code>dodge AC</code>.
