02-08-04, 06:16 PM How much would a mithral shirt cost for a centaur? The PHB says to multiply weight and cost by 2 for large creatures, but barding for large creatures is multiplied by 4 for cost and 2 for weight. So how much should a Mithral shirt cost and weight for a Centaur? Normal cost is 1,100 gp.

3x cost and 2x weight
sounds fair

02-08-04, 07:18 PM Armor for a centaur would cost X4 and weigh x2. Both barding and armor for a centaur are classified as armor for non-humanoid creatures, which raise their prices.

Also note that if would be possible for a centaur to take the parts from normal human sized armor and horse sized barding and put them on (shirt part of armor and body part of barding). It does not matter if the type is different, but only the lower of the two ACs applies, while the higher of the penalties applies. Special enhancements like fortification only applies if both parts have it.
