I was looking through Pathfinder Chronicles: Campaign Setting and Pathfinder Campaign Setting: The Inner Sea World Guide and noticed that each has conflicting information about Leaf Armor.
From Pathfinder Chronicles: Campaign Setting
Cost: 500 gp
Armor Bonus: +3
Maximum Dex Bonus: +8
Armor Check Penalty: 0
Arcane Spell Failure Chance: 10%
Speed (30 ft.): 30 ft.
Speed (20 ft.): 20 ft.
Weight: 10 lbs.
From Pathfinder Campaign Setting: The Inner Sea World Guide
Cost: 500 gp
Armor Bonus: +3
Maximum Dex Bonus: +5
Armor Check Penalty: 0
Arcane Spell Failure Chance: 15%
Speed (30 ft.): 30 ft.
Speed (20 ft.): 20 ft.
Weight: 20 lbs.
I boldfaced the stats that are conflicting. I have seen a few threads claiming that Leaf Armor has the same stats as Studded Leather, but I can't see how that is correct, when Leaf Armor was made by "secret alchemical compounds to treat special leaves", compared to Studded Leather being made up of leather and metal studs. More specifically, leaves weigh less than leather with metal studs.
So which one is correct?
