Nanman Armor

Nanman Armor (籐甲鎧, Tōkō Yoroi, lit. Wisteria Shell Armor), otherwise known as the Shell Armor or Tengjia Armor, is an item used in Dynasty Warriors 3 and its spin-offs. It increases the player's defense against bow attacks. This item is especially useful in difficult battles where arrows may prove to be fatal even for maximized characters, especially for those that have naturally lower base bow defense. Despite offering added protection, the Nanman Armor only gives player more time to approach a group of archers before their health is whittled down almost completely. This is very much true in the third game where these particular units are at their deadliest.

How to Obtain
The Nanman Armor is a standard item and can be obtained through the normal method of breaking boxes and vases or slaying officers.
