Slot							Legs slot
Type							Melee

Plateskirts are a type of armour worn mainly by warriors in the leg slot. Among melee attack types, plateskirts provide good defence against the slash attack type but are more vulnerable to the crush attack type. Plateskirts give a player penalties towards ranged attacks and penalties towards magic defence. However, plateskirts have very good defence against ranged attacks.

Standard plateskirts can be made with the Smithing skill (with the exception of the black, white and dragon plateskirts) or purchased at the plateskirt shop identified by the icon on the map.

They are less popular and consequently more affordable than the platelegs, despite having identical stats, weighing 1 kg less, and not being gender-locked (i.e. male characters can wear plateskirts and female characters can wear platelegs).
