Looking good is number one when it comes to armor selections - the AC
differences in the armors hardly matter - certainly the higher costs are in
no way justified (steel is just something for rich people to buy with their
otherwise useless plats.) There are weight differences and sometimes you
will endure the excess weights for the visual benefits!

Only a few days ago, I managed to loot a hat off a cyclops - possibly a
named one (Broon, froon? I think I just stumbled onto the party killing it
and gave em a few helpful bellows when they were kinda low hp and they gave
me the loot for stopping to help. It's not like I solo'd him or anything.)
- any how its got a nice little stat boost (can't think of str or dex
orwhat) and is not visible when you wear it. I'v taken to that instead of my
bronze helm - which gets incredibly hot when you are camped in extended
combat. (Of course I lose the 'effect' of arriving at a city gate and
removing the help to chat with folks. <g>) Hehe but would I wear it if it
gave you that funny little 'top-knot' look that the cyco's have :-) ???

My take is that bards are performers and should look
good doing it. I wear blackened armor in all the
visible spots except the head where I have a woven
cap. It's only AC2 but it's the best I have found
that is invisible (half-elf BTW). I have heard a silk
turban from the named giant (Hettar I believe) in
Oasis is also invisible.

I receive a large number of spontaneous compliments
and I revel in it. *grin*
