Leather armor

The leather armor is an item from Strife which is functionally identical to Doom's security armor. When used it boosts the player's armor percentage to 100%, unless their current armor is equal to or greater than that value. Leather armor will absorb one-third (1/3) of all damage dealt to the player until it wears out.

Up to five suits of leather armor can be held in the player's inventory at any time, not including the one they are wearing. They can be found in many levels of Strife, and are also sold by armorers in exchange for gold.

Whenever the armor percentage drops to zero, the Auto-Armor feature will attempt to use a metal armor if available, otherwise it will use a leather armor if available.
