I'm trying to create my own armor I've dubbed "Hunter's Mail Armor." I'm using scale mail as a base but I want to remove the max dex limitation the armor comes with, but I can't figure out how. Is there a modifier I'm supposed to add or remove?
Also, how do I remove the default item description? It currently says, "This armor consists of a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish. The suit includes gauntlets," underneath my text for the item and I can't figure out how to remove that either.
I don't believe you can currently do either of these things unfortunately, though I could be wrong.
What I would suggest is that you choose another base armour, maybe Leather, and add an AC bonus (Modifier -> Bonus -> Armor Class) to get the AC you want. In the description specify the AC that the armour grants, and any modifications to the appearance (i.e- metal scales over the top).
