Hey guys,
One of my players in our weekly PFS game wants to purchase some armor for her boar animal companion. I'm not sure what, if any resource this is in (its on the srd http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/armor) and if its legal.
Anyone mind clearing this up for us? Is it doable and if so, how does it work?
Thanks,
Jeremy

It is legal, but without an Armor feat the boar will get all negatives of using armor when not proficient.
A character who is wearing armor with which he is not proficient applies its armor check penalty to attack rolls and to all skill checks that involve moving.
The prices for Animal Armor barding are on Pg 162.

There are two ways you can approach this.
1) Buy armor for your pig that has a zero Armor Check Penalty. As long as there is no penalty, you don't have to worry about proficiency. (I have a large ape that has no proficiency with armor, but wears a mithral shirt.)
2) Take the armor proficiency feats in order to not worry about Armor Check penalty. (I have a bear animal companion whose two feats are Light and Medium Armor Proficiency.)

PFS game wants to purchase some armor for her boar animal companion.
If medium it costs double the NON masterwork part and weights the same.
If large it costs quad the NON masterwork part and weights the same.For example, if the armor costs 200, then a medium barding would costs 400 or 550 masterwork. A large would cost 800 or 950 MW.
If it is mithril, you pay (cost of mithril - 150) * 2 + armor_cost * 2 + 150 for medium (etc.)
Also note, the animal doesn't have Armor Proficiency Light, tho you can buy the feats with his feats from HD. So to be clear, training the animal for war (giving him combat tricks) doesn't grant proficiencies according to Paizo.
