Light Armour Use

Light Armour Use Martial Basic 160 hours This skill enables someone to wear light armour properly. It covers how to put on, wear, and fight in light armour for best effect without undue penalty. Those trained in this skill suffer fewer combat penalties for the use of light armour. 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 light armour is not necessarily the same as wearing a light load; often but not always. This skill may be learned in half the usual time and effort if any other armour use skill is known.
