Mithril Full Plate

[Giant Space Hamster]

Has anyone found better mithril full plate than +1? Asking to win a bet.

[Parasite]

Only regular +2 nothing better

Blessed Full plate is the best full plate I think, it's a +2, that gives +4 to saving throws on compulsion and poison effects, and if worn by a paladin gives 2 extra smite evil usages per day

Thanks for the feedback. To clarify, I'm specifically looking for mithril full plate with better than +1 (effective) enhancement bonus. I don't care as much about non-mithril full plate.

It came up in a discussion with a friend about barbarian full plate builds and whether or not the first suit of mithril full plate +1 will still be the best armor for a barbarian with heavy armor prof by the end of the game.

Mithril full plate +1 is the best I've seen so far, but I did find a Mithril breastplate +2, which might be better for a Barbarian (don't they lose their fast movement in heavy armor?).

They lose fast movement in heavy armor, but mithril makes it count as one level lighter except for the feat required to wear it. So if implemented properly mithril full plate should require the heavy armor proficiency but should operate as medium armor in all other respects.

Not armored hulk but honestly barb shouldnt put too much dex anyway.

I don't recall any other mithril other than Heart of Valour (breastplate, medium armor, +2 and mithril) but im starting pitax again, so ill keep an eye out.

14 or 16 dex on a barb is very useful if you want combat reflexes. Those AoOs with a big 2H weapon HURT. But it's not necessary for every build and you can use items/spells to suplement.

As stated above, here is the better full plate (gotten from the blacksmith as a random weekly gift).

Well i picked up 2 levels of barbarian for the speed, i got heavy armor proficency and Mithril Full plate and I'm not getting the speed bonuses i should be getting.

I don't understand what the issue here is? Barbarian speed clearly states, no armor, light armor and medium and mithril fullplate is meant to be classed as medium armor.

Im fairly certain the game just flat out views full plate as heavy regardless of circumstances.

Random weekly gift?... I didn't think that any loot in this game was random... I thought all of the "gifts" were sequential, and that all loot was specifically "placed"...
