Magic Articulated Plate Armor
Magic armor adds an enhancement bonus to AC. Magic appears at higher levels and grants higher armor bonuses than its mundane counterpart. Magic armor always has an enhancement bonus, and the price of the armor material is incorporated into the overall cost of the magic armor. The AC at each level is roughly equal to scale armor (although with different effects).

16–20 | +4 | +10 | +14 |
21–25 | +5 | +11 | +16 |
