Don't know if anyone has asked this yet, so here goes. What does Expert, Master, and Legendary proficiencies have to do with weapons and armor? I can't find it anywhere.

They add their bonus to your AC and to hit trolls.

For instance, a character who is untrained with a martial longsword's proficiency is level-2. The fighter is an expert with martial weapons including the longsword and his proficiency is calculated level +1.

The same works for armor, essentially moved from trained to expert in heavy armor will add +1 to your AC.

So weapons would be level +2 for master and level +3 for legendary? I assume you add str/dex mod to this as well?
