* The Iron Bull in ''[[Dragon Age: Inquisition]]'' has very few armor options, because he really doesn't need it. He's your typical bare chested, [[Boisterous Bruiser]], [[Barbarian Hero]]; armor would just slow him down. |

* Undine's plate armor in ''[[Undertale]]'' was actually ''detrimental'' in the original version of the game. The first time you fight her, she has a ''negative'' defense score, and in the "date" battle later (where she isn't wearing it) her defense is higher. It's also a handicap story-wise, because if the player wants to win the first battle without killing her, they have to lure her to Hotland, where the armor causes her to dehydrate quickly and collapse. A later patch fixed the first problem, but it still doesn't give her a significant boost in defense score. |

* In ''[[Lethal Company]]'', all employees wear [[Hazmat Suit]]s, but it doesn't do anything to protect them from the bloodlike substance a Masked vomits. |

* Averted in ''[[Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice]]'' with the Armored Warrior, who wears full plate and is immune to Wolf's attacks. Instead, he is a [[Puzzle Boss]] whose poster the player must break in order to knock off a ledge. |
