hey i was wondering,
are there any enchantments a warforged can put on his plating (ie adamantine body) to make it lighter? (instead of heavy medium or even i high level spell that makes it light?) i mean for the perpouses of class abilities (ie bardic spells and what not)

I don't know off the top of my head any enchantment that makes armor lighter, but there are a few in MIC that I recall that reduce the spell failure chance (twilight for instance).

There is a feat that lets works on the other side of things - Battle Caster from complete arcane (and reprinted in a few other supplements I believe) that increases the category of armor you can wear.

Why make it lighter? Why not take Mithril Body and enchant it to give it better bonuses?

Being "stuck" with your type of armor plating is sort of what I considered to be part of the balance of Warforged. As a DM, I would not allow any enchantments to allow it to be treated as light armor.
