Protective clothing?

[Stormingnorman8]

Hello!

I’m trying to find some type of clothing that will cause damage when touched. Can’t quite recall where I saw something like that.

[Biffoniacus_Furiou]

I don't think any such item exists that wouldn't also harm you, like being on fire or covered in acid. Probably the most viable thing would be to make a Warforged Psion (Shaper) and use Psionic Minor Creation to cover yourself in Black Lotus Extract.

Possibly Cloak of the Salamander (MIC)? It's sort of a wearable fire shield kinda thing....

[ElderDarren]

If you want all day protection you can spring for the Greater Salamander Cloak (MIC pg. 88). They're a fun toy to play with, and if it inherits the standard cloaks activation you can turn it on and off for social functions.
