Line 215:
* In ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'', this is subverted with Ashley's medieval-style plate armor, which is unlocked by finishing the main game and finishing the Separate Ways mini-game. [[Lethal Joke Item|It looks kind of silly]] given the genre and setting, but it makes the game a ''lot'' easier, protecting Ashley from attacks (enemy attacks and accidentally hitting her yourself) and makes her too heavy for enemies to carry away, which becomes a frequent problem without it.
* 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.
