Adamantine Scale Mail is a very rare Medium Armour that reduces all incoming damage by 1 and sends attackers Reeling. In addition, attacks cannot land Critical Hits on the user.
The adamantine scales hug your body like a second skin - a heavy, near-impregnable skin.

Notes
- The
Reeling condition from Adamantine Backlash is renewed on each successful hit against the wearer, and is removed on miss. - The Reeling condition imposed by the Adamantine Backlash passive does not stack with the passive from
Adamantine Shield. If an opponent is sent Reeling on hit from Adamantine Backlash, the Reeling from Adamantine Shield is not applied on the same opponent if they miss, and the Reeling status from Adamantine Backlash is removed. Likewise, if an opponent is sent Reeling after a miss from Adamantine Shield, the condition is removed upon a successful hit if one is wearing this armour, and the reeling from Adamantine Backlash is not applied. - Although somewhat counterintuitive, the effectiveness of the 'Adamantine Backlash' passive from wearing this armour goes down the more AC the wearer has, because it only triggers on a successful hit, and Reeling is removed on a miss against the wearer. As a result, Adamantine Backlash also increases the likelihood that the opponent can recover from Reeling, contrary to Adamantine Shield, which does the opposite. Thus, characters with lower AC benefit more from wearing Adamantine Scale Mail but not an Adamantine Shield; for characters with high AC, the reverse is true.
