Armor Proficiency, Medium (Feat)

You are skilled at wearing medium armor.

Prerequisites: Armor Proficiency, Light (Feat)

Benefit: When you wear medium armor, the armor check penalty for that armor applies only to Dexterity- and Strength-based skill checks.

Normal: A character who is wearing armor with which he is not proficient applies either a -4 penalty or the armor's armor check penalty (whichever is worse) to all attack rolls and to all STR-based or DEX-based skill checks.

Special: Clerics, druids, fighters, paladins, partisans, rangers, and warlords automatically have Medium Armor Proficiency as a bonus feat. They need not select it.
