What armor should Karlach wear ? Heavy ?

[Deleted *******]

THe barbarian woman

[Deylendor]

medium

[zero]

never heavy, barbarians lose class features.

either something that does not count as armor, if your dex/con is good, or medium.

[dexter]

medium or unarmored. She doesn't have proficiency in heavy armour unless you respec her. also barbs lose their frenzy with heavy armour

[Glyph]

Can't rage in heavy armor so stick with medium.

[victorvnv]

No armor best.

There is an armor in act 2 that gives 15 health when you rage and some other bonus, I give her that.

Medium is the highest you can give her

[alex010300]

Medium by default, you can spec her as heavy.

[Coffee Addict]

barbs are like monks they get more AC when not using anything labled as armor

[dexter]

If you do use unarmoured/clothes, make sure your helmet, boots and gloves are also not armoured or else you won't get the unarmoured perk buff

[6h0$t942]

Medium. Adamantine scale is good for her, since she doesnt need stealth

My preferred Karlach build is unarmored, with 16/14/16 physical stats.

With that plus the bracers of defense she's got 17AC, plus the benefits of a magic outfit.

Just skip the clothing, the class and the game is better for it.

I make Karlach a Vengeance Paladin with respec so she gets the heavy armor.

Early on, nothing, later 1/2 plate +2 with a +1 shield and the +3 returning trident. Depends a bit on how you build her and whether you want her to be the focus of the enemies or not.

Mine has like 19AC with Mighty Cloth (+2 STR !), Bracers of Def (+2 AC), DEX+CON bonus for +6, and dual wielding with Defender flail (+ 1AC)
Level 7, in Act 2
