Quick question, In a danger room I have I've trained about 6 dwarves up to near legendary status. However, their masterwork steel armor no has the
Xrandom-crapX look to it. This means wear damage right? If so, I suppose armor takes wear daamage?
 

[BoredVirulence]

I'm fairly certain armor should not take damage. It sounds like you have modded armor. I don't remember the details, but I recall a modification so that armor was clothing to deal with some equipping bugs, the downside being that they take damage.

I could be wrong, and I'll check the wiki.

Edit: Armor with the armorlevel token set to 0 will take damage. With that token set to 0 dwarves will also wear armor like clothes.

Or you could have let your armor sit in refuse stockpile.

[BlackFlyme]

The only times I've ever seen armour take damage were when some were left in a refuse stockpile, and when a fire-breathing FB partially melted some of my soldier's armour.

Your danger room doesn't spew fire does it?

[SnK-Arcbound]

Items in a stockpile that has any refuse items turned on will decay. Are you sure it's armor and not say clothing?

[dewboy]

Its not modded armor, unless LNP is doing it. I'm afraid my Dnager room doesn't spew fire but I'll get right on that. There is a weird thing with dwarves taking the armor bin up to the refuse pile but they don't do anything with it. They bring it up, bring it down, bring it up, bring it down. besides all this aromro is being worn

What are the stockpile designations for your refuse stockpile?

[Garath]

most likely they bring it up to grab some piece of armor that was in the refuse stockpile, where it took damage

Sorry, but this just made me smile.

Thank you for such a typical DF player response!
