[RPG] How does the Armored Kilt work

armormovementpathfinder-1e

I have both Light Armor and an Armored Kilt on. Now this means that my armor is automatically treated as Medium armor.

Now I have three questions:

  1. How does this affect my max DEX bonus to AC?
  2. How does this affect my speed (overland, flying, swimming, and climbing)?
  3. How does this work with the Barbarian's increased speed?

The reason I am asking is due to an argument me and another player had about my barbarian being able to still move at 40 ft. per move action despite wearing Medium armor.

Best Answer

Quickly over viewing this are the answers I can give:

  1. The Armoured Kilt has a maximum dexterity bonus of +6, I am unsure of what armour you are also wearing but your maximum dexterity bonus is the lowest of the two figures.
  2. The Armoured Kilt has no armour check penalty so it should not affect your swimming or climb checks, regarding land speed Can Canbek's answer below has now covered it as well as clearing up any confusion on the matter regarding armour properties.

  3. This should not have an adverse effect on the barbarians improved speed:

    Fast Movement (Ex)

    A barbarian's land speed is faster than the norm for her race by +10 feet. This benefit applies only when he is wearing no armor, light armor, or medium armor, and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the barbarian's speed because of any load carried or armor worn. This bonus stacks with any other bonuses to the barbarian's land speed.

    As described the Fast Movement (Ex) ability continues to work in medium armour.
