Heavy armours provide the best protection compared to other types of armour available in the game. Heavy armours provide both Armour and Shielding bonuses. Significant weight of heavy armour restricts anyone except characters with high Strength from wearing them. Crafting a decent heavy armour requires significant volume of rare resources, which are usually available only in late game. Producing heavy armour is a labor-intensive process and will take quite some turns even for a competent crafter.
The best material for heavy armour is Mithrill followed by Steel.
Unlocking heavy armour crafting requires 2 Advancement Points and is available after Light armours crafting has been researched.
