Cloaks and Robes
Robes are the favorite of the Scholar and the Herbalist, but rogues such as the Trapper may prefer cloaks. Both generally have a high Resistance to magical attacks and very little Armor. They often provide a strong buff to Intelligence, Awareness, and Focus, but generally at the expense of a character's Strength or Talent stats.

Some examples of Cloaks and Robes are:
 * Explorer's Cloak
 * Shadow Cloak
 * Mystic Robe
 * Wizard Robe
 * Assassin Gear

Cloth Armor
Cloth Armor is the standard for Minstrels and Buskers, as it focuses on boosting stats such as Talent and Luck. Cloth Armor usually has high Resistance and Armor bonuses, but will take away from a character's Awareness stat. Oftentimes, Cloth Armor will come with a modifier to gold gains, boosting income after a battle.

Some notable examples of Cloth Armor are:
 * Gambeson
 * Pirate Coat
 * Performer's Vest
 * Dream Coat
 * Jester Outfit

Light Armor
While standard Light Armors only provide a boost to Armor and Resistance, they'll sometimes offer a variety of other bonuses. Most characters will wear some form of Light Armor at one point in time or another during a campaign, and even standard Leather Armor, Soldier Armor, or Dragonhide Armor can be preferable if nothing else is available.

Typical Light Armor variants include:
 * Magic Leather Armor
 * Goblin Vest
 * Fur Armor
 * Blessed Vest
 * Thieve's Armor

Heavy Armor
The strongest Armor type in the game and often providing a nice bonus to Strength, Plate is particularly useful to Blacksmiths and Woodcutters. With low Resistance, Heavy Armor is generally weak when it comes to magic attacks; however, it more than makes up for it with a huge boost to Armor, while sacrificing only a few points in Intelligence.

Some proper examples of Heavy Armor are:
 * Iron Vest
 * Splint Mail
 * Iron Plate Mail
 * Royal Plate
 * Inferno Armor
