Medium Armour Use

Medium Armour UseMartialBasic100 hours
This skill enables someone to wear medium armour properly. It covers how to put on, wear, and fight in medium armour for best effect without undue penalty. Those trained in this skill suffer no combat penalties for the use of medium armour—except for movement which is ¾ normal, although some penalties may apply for the use of skills requiring freedom of motion such as acrobatics, climbing, running, or sneaking. This skill is needed to gain any armour class bonuses from the armour. Note that medium armour is not necessarily the same as carrying a medium load. Gear carried or your Strength score can push your effective load higher or lower. This skill may be learned in half the normal time if Light Armour Use is also known, and may be learned in half the time and effort if Heavy Armour Use is known.
