Light armor VS Heavy armor

[Prickett]

Does light armor give any benifits that heavy armor dosent, because as much as I can tell, Heavy armor is superior with the higher armor rating.

[wolf3167]

Yes, contrary to popular belief. At least as far as the base game and maybe first expansion or two, light armor (generally) has more enchant storage. Not a tremendous amount, but definitely some.

Ok thanks wolf

[Prickett]

Oh, one more thing, does the same go for light weapons and heavy weapons?

[wolf3167]

I do not believe so. I think they are about equal except for the fact that heavy weapon uses strength, light uses dexterity.

[Prickett]

Ok thanks wolf

[Alasover]

Heavy weapons do more damage, but cannot be dual wielded. They also use strength, while light uses dexterity.

[Prickett]

Well heavy can be dual wielded, but only one.
