For the topic of armors, I would humbly suggest a solution from one of the greatest games of all time: Phantasy Star IV. In PSIV, you would progress through the game completing quests and moving to new areas, mainly cities. In the new cities there were usually new types of armor available, but only for a couple of classes. In Example: There might be 4 characters in your party, but only 1 or 2 of them would be able to use the new equipment in a new city, as certain characters are unable to use specific types. This allowed for steady, linear progression, and felt very rewarding. Here is a link to a page with more info:http://shrines.rpgclassics.com/genesis/ps4/armor.shtml As you can see, not every character is able to equip every armor type. Certain heavy armor type are restricted to heavy characters Certain light armor types, restricted to light characters A couple of lower tech suits usable by all characters. 11 Characters total. Gryz is my personal favorite.
