[[Armor]] decreases MB by an amount equal to the armor's action penalty. There is no penalty for [[AsG]] full leather and lower. The penalties range from -5 (reinforced leather) to -35 (full plate).

	=== Room Lighting Conditions ===		=== Room Lighting Conditions ===

			Most ingame rooms are considered to have normal natural lighting (neither bright nor dark) and have no effect on MB. There are, however, some rooms that have natural lighting that varies from this standard. Also certain spells, when cast, can temporarily change a room's lighting state. Room lighting, other than normal, will increase or decrease both offensive and defensive MB.
	Rooms brighter than normal will increase MB while rooms darker than normal or foggy will reduce MB.

			*Bright (spell [[205]]): +5 MB
			*Dark (spell [[206]]): -5 MB
			*Foggy (spell [[106]]): -10 MB
			*Dark and Foggy: - 15 MB
