Heavy | Armor Final Fantasy XII Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

There are three kinds of armor: heavy, light and robes.

Heavy has generally higher defense factor, often rise strength attribute, but, well, it's heavy and because of that the actions of that character are slower. It prevent especially when there's strong magnetic field in the area. Used by tanks.

Light has lower defense factor than heavy, but it adds a lot of HP to the character that wears it. The most important is that they increase the speed of actions. It works well for those using long range weapons.

Robes have very low physical defense, but high magic defense. Additionally they raise amount of MP and magic power attribute. It's better not to send these heroes in the front line.

Also all armors divide into two parts: head-gear and torso. Head-gear raises mostly the magic defense and torso the physical defense.
