I'm playing a large race and need special (large) armor. Therefore I'm
using a lot of upgrade kits. Got gray dragon scales recently, enchanted
them, and they became the large variant at their defined weight of 150;
despite their size not heavier. Meanwhile I killed the Platinum Dragon;
it left scales of weight 225. The Wiki says:
"50% heavier than normal dragon scale (225 units vs the normal 150)".
To wear those I needed to upgrade them, but in the process they got a
lot heavier, 450 units (and me burdened)! That's now three times an
ordinary (large) dragon mail's weight. The inherent properties of that
dragon mail (fire, cold, shock, disintegration, and sleep resistance,
free action, magic resistance, and reflection) is great, although I'm
already crowned and have the basic resistances, and MR formerly from
the GDSM, reflection from an amulet, and free action from a ring.
I'm pondering whether it's worth to wear that extremely heavy Platinum
Dragon mail.
It's probably an oversight (or bug) that ordinary dragon scale mails
are not adjusted in weight when created/upgraded for large races?
