Leg Armor

16 leg pieces, the same armour figures as the chest of their set and the same 5% movement penalty, which is why a heavy set costs 10% in total. The thinnest slot in the game by choice: there are no cosmetic trousers, so every piece here is real armour.

Protection

Pros

No filler. All 16 are craftable armour with an upgrade ladder, where the chest slot is half Hildir's wardrobe.
The same figures as the chest piece of the set, up to 38 on the Flametal Greaves, so the 2 together are most of an armour rating.
Flametal Greaves carry 20% heat resistance, which is the Ashlands answer rather than a luxury.

Cons

Another 5% movement speed on top of the chest piece, for every heavy set in the game.
Up to 15.0 weight a pair, matching the chest piece and 5 times the helmet.
No leg piece carries a set bonus of its own: the bonus is announced on the head piece and simply requires these to be worn.
Root Leggings carry the Root set's 1.5x fire weakness without the harnesk's pierce resistance to pay for it.

Builds

Match the chest. A set bonus needs all 3 pieces, and the armour figures are identical, so there is no reason to mix tiers here except while one piece is still being upgraded.

The 2 mage sets cost 2% rather than 5%, and Fenris Leggings give +3%, which for a dodge build is worth more than the 6 armour it gives up.

There are 16 in the slot: 6 at Workbench, then 5 at Forge, then 3 at Black forge, then 2 at Galdr table.

Best Leg Armor

Build	Leg Piece	Key Figure
Most armour	Flametal Greaves	38 armour at quality 1
Longest lasting	Carapace Greaves	1800 durability at quality 4
Lightest to carry	Trousers of Ask	5 weight
Most armour without a forge	Fenris Leggings	10 armour at a Workbench

Notes

Movement penalties from the chest and leg pieces add together, so a full heavy set is -10%.
Armour reduces damage from physical, fire, frost and lightning. Poison and spirit are not reduced by it at all.
Every craftable piece gains +2 armour per upgrade level.
Upgrading an equipped piece unequips it.
