TDN Changes to Equipment

---

Finesse
NWN Finesse is based on race size. Everything Small is automatically finesseable by Medium characters and everything Tiny is automatically finesseable by Small characters. The only exception to this is the Rapier, which is noted as Finesseable in the chart below.

Rarity
Some weapons and armor are less common, either from not being native to the region and therefore smiths aren't familiar with how to craft them, in the case of exotic weapons, or require more materials, in the case of heavy armor. Such equipment can only be found as dungeon loot as uncommon drops.

Item Weight
The weight of an item is directly affected by its quality, with lower grade weapons and armor weighing more and higher quality equipment weighing less.





Changes to Armor:


Armor is separated into three categories of Light, Medium and Heavy Armor. There are no longer multiple instances of armor within these categories.

• A character with 16+ strength is able to utilize Heavy Armor better and receives an additional +1 AC Dodge.
