Best Answer

At the very beginning of the Middle Ages, they wore the same armor the Romans did, or they wore the armor of the Germanic tribes, which was rather a combination of things, but largely a copy of Roman armor.

As time went by, they adopted scale armor that was a combination of rings and strips of steel plate sewn to leather, called ring mail and scale armor. Later yet, they used chain mail, in which the rings interlocked, and developed plate armor, in which the pieces of steel plate conformed to larger parts of the body.

The best armour to wear depends on the combat style you're using. If using melee, Dragon armour is the best, Black dragonhide armour is the best for ranged, and Grifolic armour is the best for magic. Using the wrong style armour for the wrong class will lower your accuracy.
