Hello all,

When an Arcane Hierophant ignores spell failure while wearing druid armor, does this count for dragon plate? What about if it has the Wild Feature and Ease? How about if the druid is wild shaped (and has natural spell) for both scenarios?

Thanks a bunch. I am creating a 3.5 version of a second edition druid/mage I played for years for a high level (20th lvl) campaign.

Yes, it does, though a Druid is not normally proficient with Heavy armor, so you'd have to take that feat also. Additionally, you might want to look at many of the new materials in Races of the Wild, which are also not metal, thus a Druid can freely wear them, and thus so can your Arc. Heiro.

My reading would suggest otherwise...the arcane hierophant's ignore spell failure ability specifically limits it to light and medium armour, so in general it would not apply to dragonhide. If you can get it to count as medium armour, then you're good to go.

dragonhide is a material...
