@mikemearls The updated Warforged says “you gain no benefit from wearing armor.” Does this extend to the magical properties of armor as well? Can warforged not benefit from a +1, or adamantine armor’s crit-negating, or from demon armor’s unarmed strikes? #DnD

“You gain no benefit from wearing armor” means you gain no benefit, no matter what that armor is. #DnD https://t.co/s08c6KbGDI

That seems…..kind of backwards. If armor is so tough that certain hits can't penetrate it, or provides a magical property, it shouldn't matter who is wearing it. I think this ruling could make Warforged (and any other race that gains no benefits) feel at a disadvantage.
