'''Cast versus Armor''', or '''CvA''' is a term that applies to [[warding]]-based [[:Category:Offensive Spells|attack spells]]. Heavier [[armor]] types are harder to penetrate, even with magic, as reflected by this value. Magical or [[Enchant Item (925)|enchanted]] [[armor]]s protect the wearer better than non-magical or non-[[Enchant Item (925)|enchanted]] [[armor]]s, and this differential also increases with the heavier types of [[armor]]. |
|||
These numbers apply directly to the warding roll. In practice, wearing heavier armors, as well as those that are magical, is practically equivalent in the mathematics to having a higher [[Target defense]] for any target. |
