![[Stalwart.png]] ## Stand. Endure. Break the blade against you. Stalwart Armor is forged through Durability—the raw, unyielding force of survival. It’s not about dodging the blow. It’s about meeting it head on and daring it to do its worst. Those who wear Stalwart armor become walls of willpower, deflecting pain and punishing the hand that dares to strike. Every plate and weave of Stalwart gear exists for a single purpose: to endure what others cannot and turn the weight of the enemy’s fury against them. Mechanically, Stalwart Armor focuses on bolstering defenses and weaponizing resilience: * Increase your total Durability beyond the norm. * Redirect blocked damage back to your attackers. * Block even base damage, not just bonus. * Reflect or weaken Power based weapon assaults. * Duplicate or become immune to physical afflictions. * Strengthen the defensive attributes of nearby allies. * Shrug off Fellmark effects entirely. Wearing Stalwart Armor doesn’t mean you won’t be struck. It means that it just won’t matter. What they hurl against you will become the hammer that forges your ultimate victory. * Boots Effects * Tier 1 - [[Sturdy]] * Tier 2 - [[Concentrated]] * Tier 3 - [[Overpowered]] * Gloves Effects * Tier 2 - [[Retaliating]] * Tier 3 - [[Deflecting]] * Helm Effects * Tier 2 - [[Compound]] * Tier 3 - [[Core]] * Chest Effects * Tier 3 - [[Shielding]] * Adornment Effects * Tier 3 - [[Buckler]]
