Mithril Agile Half-Plate: Movement speed?


Rules Questions


Quote:
In addition, unlike most heavy armors, the wearer can still run at quadruple speed instead of triple speed.

Just to make sure: this being like medium armor for movement speed isn't further reduced by mithril because it just gives a specific change (instead of "is considered one category lighter for determining movement speed")?

Seems like a shame, would be nice to to break the way chain shirt, breastplate and fullplate (plus Haramaki and Kikko for non-proficients) are the only kind of armor worth bothering with.

O-Yoroi is worth wearing IMO, as it has a better Max Dex and is lighter. And I'm pretty sure Lamellar Leather is superior to the Chain Shirt in almost every way.
