Heavy Armour

Heavy Armour offers a lot of protection in exchange for maneuverability. The higher your strength, the better your proficiency with heavy armour will be. Using heavy armour can slow your traveling speed but will also serve as good protection for tank characters which have Taunt mode on and anticipate heavy damage. While using heavy armour and heavy weapons, a character's strength skill will increase, making it easier for that character to use these items.
