Complete list of items that cannot be used or combined?

[JeffJedi]

I was thinking there should be an updated list of items that cannot be used by the Wizard and other characters. Furthermore having a list of items that cannot be combined in general. This is not a discussion on how many can be carried at once, but more a definitive list of the armors and things that work together at once. I.e. Bracers, plate mail, helmet, shield?

[Kurgan]

Via the NA rules?

Staff and Battle Axe cannot be combined with Shield.
Can't combine more than one type of body armor together

It may be easier to remember what the Wizard CAN use (besides spells):
*Warlock Hero has same restrictions)

Dagger
Staff
Bracers
Tool Kit
Wizard's Staff
Wizard's Cloak
Potions
Holy Water
Elixir of Life
Magical Throwing Dagger
Dust of Disappearance
Anti-Poison Quill
Fire Ring
Rabbit Boots
Crown of Shadows
Phantom Dagger
Ring of Fortitude
Talisman of Lore
Spell Ring
Wand of Magic
Ring of Return
Spell Scrolls
Hand Axe (probably by mistake, but still)

Did I miss any?

Druid can't wear metal armor (no Chainmail, Plate Mail, Borin's Armor or Helmet but CAN wear Bracers)


Actually now I was still thinking in terms of the 2021 Remake. If you open it up to all of classic HeroQuest there are a lot of things the Wizard can use, but a lot of things he can't the rule of thumb is basically he can't wear Armor or use large weapons. If it says he can't on the Armory Board or card, then he can't use it.

The EQP has a couple of potions in the Alchemist Shop (and a couple of Artifacts) that can only be used by the Elf. BQP has the same for the Barbarian.

I guess if somebody did want to make a chart, that would be helpful, now that you mention it!
