Artifact Armor

Super Heavy Plate

Artifact Super Heavy Plate will be changed from artifact 5 to artifact 4 to represent what we feel is a power gap, as well as a coolness gap between Super Heavy Plate and some of the other more powerful and unique artifact 5 ideas in the various books. Examples of what we feel constitutes a true artifact 5 are Celestial Battle Armor, Royal or Colossus Warstriders, or a First Age Skyship.

All standard forms of artifact armor listed in the core rule book will have their attunement cost reduced by 1 mote to a minimum of 1 mote. This is mostly because it feels daunting to commit so much essence to armor that has no overly magical affect, other than needing it to be a bit lighter. We read about it a few other places and many players agree that attunement for standard armor is a bit much, especially for the Dragon-Bloods and their limited essence pools.
