Breastplates are a type of medium armor in Pillars of Eternity.

Description

Breastplates are popular for offering a modest amount of protection without the restrictive movement of heavier mail and full suits of plate armor. Due to their widespread use by warriors from the Vailian Republic, the fashion of clothing and padding worn under breastplates typically reflects Vailian styles.
