EO4/Armor

See Forging for a breakdown of each icons' effect on the equipment. Every armor piece sells for 40% of its purchase price. Armor with no listed sale price are either quest rewards, found in treasure chests, or found while dowsing for treasure.

See the Speed formula for how each armor piece affects the party member's action speed.

With exception to equipment that requires no materials, all purchaseable equipment comes in limited stock. The shop stockpiles the materials you sell to it, and every time you purchase or forge equipment, its material cost will be deducted from the stockpile. Depleting the shop's stock of required materials will make the associated equipment inaccessible until you sell more copies of the material to the shop.
