Question about Ellyrian Reavers

#1 Post by Dfrege »

Fluff-wise does anyone know if Reavers actually use Ithilmar Barding, I know they don't in tabletop probably for balance purposes. Its seems that since Ithilmar is very Light and confers little to no diminishing effect on movement they could use it and could still fulfil their role of fast scouts.

Maybe some do. Ithilmar is a rare metal found only in one place in Caledor and very expensive so it is available usually only to nobles. Since Reavers are a mix of nobles and common folk I would guess some of them do have Ithilmar barding.

its odd they have no barding as ingame option though
1. they are the knights of ellyrion
2. artwork shows them with barding
