Bone Body Armor is a cuirass made from rows of large bone beads laced with leather. It is crafted protective gear for the torso. It stops most bites and scratches on the chest, belly and back.

Its strength is simple materials. Bones, leather and twine are enough, in the hands of a skilled crafter. Its costs are speed, comfort and durability. It slows running and attacks, and it wears out fast.

It comes only from crafting. The recipe needs high skill in both Tailoring and Carving. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Wearing


The armour stops about 80 percent of bites and 90 percent of scratches on the torso and back. It also blocks most of the wind on those parts. A Wooden Body Armor gives the same cover at the same costs. A Metal Body Armor matches it too, and adds some bullet cover and far better durability.

The weight is felt in every move. Running speed drops by 10 percent and attacks land about 5 percent slower. Discomfort rises by a fifth.

Durability is its weak point. It takes only three points of wear, and each hit has an even chance to cost one. A few hard fights can finish it.

It takes the Cuirass slot. A vest, a bulletproof vest, an apron, a bathrobe, a suit jacket and bulky jackets clash with it. So do a shoulder holster, sport shoulder pads, breathing masks and full suits.

Tailoring


Research Craft on the armour teaches a whole set of recipes. They are Make Bone Body Armor, Make Bone Thigh Armor, Make Bone Shoulder Armor, Make Bone Forearm Armor, Make Bone Shin Armor and Make Wooden Body Armor.

The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Bone Body Armor and teaches the recipes below.

Locations

Notes


  • Researching it teaches the whole set of bone armour recipes.
  • It wears out fast, so a spare set of materials is worth keeping.
  • Metal Body Armor gives the same cover and lasts longer.
  • It is made by hand with a knife and an awl, which suits a camp in the woods.
