Amazons only item. The Reinforced Breastplate increases physical defense by 4, light resistance by 1 and dark resistance by 1. It's most useful application is the increased defense it provides against Rumiko's Shuriken Barrage; however, it is also useful against any multiplicative physical damage attack. Even though it can be very helpful, it is usually much less useful than Herbal Remedy.

A handy item on any Amazon whenever the metagame shifts towards lots of physical-type damage.
Reinforced Breastplate on characters[]
Amazons[]
- Andromeda - This will help her when she fights heavy-hitters like Rumiko, but it isn't useful in most other matchups. Resists change to 6/5/3.
- Anex - This item isn't very useful in many of her matchups. Usually, Herbal Remedy saves more health than Reinforced Breastplate. Resists change to 6/4/2.
- Ashi - She already has 6 physical defense, so she doesn't benefit much from using Reinforced Breastplate. Resists change to 10/2/2, overkilling any opposition.
- Helene - Like Ashi, she has high physical defense (8), so she benefits more from using other items. Resists change to 12/6/1, which is also overkill.
- Phoebe - As Rumiko can only hit her once if Phoebe uses Rapid Lashes, there are far better choices than Reinforced Breastplate. Resists change to 6/5/3.
Card Variant[]
