Hey there,
So I like this item, it has alot of nice things a barbarian would find useful.
+2 Con
+1 Str
+1 Dex.
10% Physical DR
1 Regen Per round.
However there seems to be a fair number of.. well drawbacks with this armor that feel a little excessive.
-1 Armor AC
-1 Dodge AC
25% Vunerability to Cold
It's Clothing so it has no base AC.
Now, maybe I'm out of the loop? But As far as I know, even if this armor was a +5 Armor instead of a -2 Armor effectively, Barbarians likely would never be AC juggernauts, though making this effectively -2 Clothing feels like a bit of overkill to me.
I know Barbarians are known for having high HP pools and high DR, but I am uncertain the drawbacks of this barbarian only armor works well. Just kinda feels like it makes the squishy even squishier
To be honest, I don't know how old this item is, I don't know if it's a more recent edition or just a very old item, but I'm wondering if prehaps some of the downsides could be trimmed off? If you have to massively boost the UMD on it to prevent people UMD'ing to get access to this (Not sure who would want to personally, but hey, I'm not familar with everything in the game) Then I think that's fine? I don't think I can think of anyone whom is pushing 40 UMD to use this as a non-barbarian.
