TAG 1 enhanced armor 20 TAG 2 enhanced armor 10 arcane armor 10 end result= wear TAG 1 get full benefits. TAG 2 get only arcane armor from it. second scenario. 6 tags total. ask an armorsmith to combine them all into 1 suit which you can wear. at logistics. [ Edited Wed Aug 01 2012, 11:03AM ] | ||

However a chapter may release specific armor tags specifying exactly what part that specific suit covers. If a player is using a specific they may not use another specific tag that covers the same area. For example a player may use a two suits that just say Platemail 15 points of armor and be able to wear a rep for 30 points, but they cannot wear two suits that say breastplate simultaneously. | ||
