The codes define the armor or weapon capibility.
In first postion as in AC = Armor Class:
A = Armor
D = Damage
F = Fire
P = Poision
E = Electrical
D = Damage
M = Magic
N = Noise
The second position as in NP = Noise Protection:
R = Resistance
C = Class
D = Damage
P = Protection
The parameters can be modified either adding or lessoning there value.
Optional parameters:
DR 10(+5) is Damage Resistance of 10 plus 5 for total of 15 DR.
FR 10(-10) is Fire Resistance of 10 minus 10 for a total of 0 FR.
AC is Armor Class, higher the number the better the armor.
DR is Damage Resistance, reduces damage on your character.
FR is Fire Resistance, higher is better
NP is Noise Protection, higher means quieter.
AD is Additional Damage. Like the machined gaunlets cause damage if unarmed.
In unmoded Arcanum you can only buy a weapon or find a weapon that already containes magic. To use magic armor or weapons you must be high on the magic / tech meter to gain the benifit of the additional magic. If your a technologist then avoid magic equipment as you'll not achieve the benifit. However if a weapon or armor contains dark magic it will be effective and independent of your magic / tech level.
