Bronze Armor Weight

[Cen]

Im trying to do a hybrid visible bronze banded off pieces for an inbetween weight/AC but a maximum style.

No, I don't mean that. The bronze armor has higher AC than the banded so there's a level range where the bronze can keep you close to the cap while the banded can't. At very low levels either of them will keep a player at or over cap hence the bronze would be of minimal use at such levels. Even where the bronze is at its best relative to banded, the effect is not dramatic and it's long been a matter for debate as to whether the benefit is worth the added weight.

When would that be for a Warrior? and how do I find that out? Not on game mechanics wiki. I thought warriors had a solid 300 AC softcap, with 40% past that per item minus shields which are 100% always.

Visible small bronze with one bracer is 234 AC and my paladin is at 75 raw AGI. That totals to 42.7 weight and my dwarf has 110 raw STR. Not sure if this matters, but my dwarf paladin is lvl 9. I get more AC with a shield equipped and the other non-visible armor pieces to get me up near 290ish AC total.

Currently, with some bags and loot on me, I am at 92/112 weight. I would say that non-visible armor banded is fine until you get some good stat gear.
