Armor in Gothic II: The Night of The Raven

Summary[]

In Gothic 2, armor works by reducing the amount of damage taken from physical attacks. Each piece of armor has a set amount of "armor value," which reduces the damage taken by that amount. The armor value is divided into four categories: Weapon Resistance, Arrow Resistance, Fire Resistance, and Magic Resistance.

When a player is hit by a physical attack, the damage is reduced by the amount of armor value in the corresponding category. For example, if a player is hit by a sword, the damage is reduced by the amount of Weapon Resistance on the armor. Similarly, if a player is hit by an arrow, the damage is reduced by the amount of Arrow Resistance on the armor. Fire and magic attacks are reduced by the Fire and Magic Resistance, respectively.

It is important to note that certain enemies may have different types of attacks that require different types of resistance. For example, some enemies may use fire attacks or magic attacks that require specific resistance in order to reduce the damage taken. Overall, armor is an important aspect of character progression in Gothic 2, as it provides protection against physical attacks and can greatly increase survivability.
