# Arm Plates ## Crafting Arm plates are a shinobi's bread and butter, the most common yet useful of all shinobi items. Arm plates provide defense and bolster your ability in combat. These sleek items are top of the line but don't come cheap. With expensive costs for Gold and Iron, they will take a shinobi a while to craft. People should note that the design affects your character's appearance, offering a new design option like various other armors. If you're prepping for combat, get ready and craft your arm plates. Don't be fooled—this pair of gauntlets is more than meets the eye.
