Description

While worn, the expensive suit confers 0 base AC, MC2 and a +2 bonus to the wearer's charisma.

Strategy

The expensive suit is generally one of the better choices for the shirt slot, especially due to the price reductions conferred by the charisma boosts versus the T-shirt and Hawaiian shirt. Whether the suit is better than Victorian underwear, which grants MC3 at the cost of a penalty to AC, depends on the player's circumstances: Victorian underwear may be an ideal MC source for characters dealing with armor limitations (e.g. Monks, Jedi or spellcasting roles who do not want to wear a mithril-coat), desiring a cloak other than the cloak of protection or magic resistance, or simply having bad luck with item generation.
