08-06-07, 11:51 AM I'm looking for some good armor special abilites for a fairly stereotypical Dwarf Fighter. Ideally I'd like abilities that are good from an optimization point of view and that also fit with a doughy fighter from a roleplay point of view. Thanks.

You can also get armor augment crystals (MIC) to grant a little DR/- (or make the armor from Adamantine). Incidentally, the crystals stack with other sources of DR, which is an exception to the rules (if I recall correctly).
