Fitted Leatherwork is a technology in Age of Empires IV that can be researched at the Blacksmith or Forge starting in the Feudal Age. Once researched, it increases the melee armor of all non-siege units by 1.

Civilization bonuses[]

  • Abbasid Dynasty AoE4 Abbasid Dynasty: Research speeds are +15%/+20% faster while Golden Age tiers 2/3 are active. If Preservation of Knowledge has been researched, this technology costs -20%.
  • Ayyubids AoE4 Ayyubids: Research speeds are 25% faster while Golden Age tier 2 is active. The technology is granted for free when advancing to the Feudal Age with the Master Smiths branch of the Military Wing
  • Byzantines AoE4 Byzantines: Research speeds are 30% faster per water level at buildings within the influence of a Cistern with the Dialecticus ability active.
  • Chinese AoE4 Chinese and Zhu Xis Legacy AoE4 Zhu Xi's Legacy: The technology researches 150% faster when the Blacksmith is supervised by an Imperial Official. For Zhu Xi's Legacy, this can be improved to 300% after researching Regional Inspection
  • Delhi Sultanate AoE4 Delhi Sultanate: The technology is free, but takes 3.5x as long to research (210 seconds instead of 60 seconds).
  • HRE AoE4 Holy Roman Empire and Order of the Dragon AoE4 Order of the Dragon: The technology cost is reduced and research speed is increased by 50% if researched at the Meinwerk Palace.
  • Malians AoE4 Malians: Technologies take less time to research based on how much gold has been obtained through trade.

Changelog[]

  • Originally, the base research time for the Delhi Sultanate was 5x default (300 seconds). With update 8324, this was reduced to 3.5x default.

Campaign version[]

Because the campaigns have not been rebalanced since the release of the game, Fitted Leatherwork has different stats there:

  • It costs 25 food, 150 gold
  • The Mongols can research an improved version which costs an additional 175 stone and increases melee armor by an additional +1 (for +2 total).
