- Healers now receive greater armor. - Armor and greater armor now receive bonuses beyond 100% training. While the initial benefits of training these abilities beyond 100% are relatively small, some of the hidden benefits at significantly higher percentages are *exceptionally* powerful. The bonuses received by armor and greater armor are amplified when the caster uses the ability on himself or herself. The benefits for greater armor are not only more powerful than armor, they reveal unique benefits not available in armor. Finally, classes which have these abilities but are more fighting-oriented than magic-oriented (e.g., paladin and warlock) do not receive the exceptional benefits available at the upper training levels. See help armor and help greater armor for further details.
