the best i've found is the red dragon scale armour 9from killing firkragg). i think in underdark there's some really powerful stuff but i haven't got that far yet. also you can get some nice armour using the limited wish spell and selecting a one time wish for a magical item - it's full plate+2, so that's a -2 AC. hope that helps!

the red dragon scale from firkraag is the best armor
the drow armor is -5 if I remember correct, but...
ur can only use it in the Underdark (everybody knows that i suppose)

Drow full plate +5

Also some green armour I found shortly after leaving the underdark.

It's plate mail. Does anyone know what I mean?

I'd say Elven chain mail+2..because bards and fighter/mages can use it and still cast spells!

That's not plate mail though.

Do you mean the Gorgon Plate +4? You get it off the Matron Mother in Ust Natha. It has 15% acid and fire protection, I think.

The best armour would indeed be the Drow Full Plate +5 and for mage/thieves and the like, the Drow Adamantine Chain +5.

In Suldanesselar you can get the Bladesinger Chain +4, which is probably the best bard/mage-thief armour.

A very good armour nobody mentioned yet: The Armour of the Hart +3

Drow full plate +5, red scale plate, Baldurian.

Which armour is it Cespenar ca upgrade with a protection from normal weapons scroll?

EDIT: Oh, you asked for a tank?!
Well, if I had read through your question carefully at first I might have seen that [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, in that case:
Full plate armour+ring of protection +2...
I just noticed you can't have red dragon and the ring at the same time i ToB.. :(
