In my opnion, noone used leather anyway.. even if it had better ar! Noone uses high end armors for hunting... so why bothering to lower leather ar and not doing anything about it?! really... before the nerf the best leather had to offer was exceptional barbed studded leather which had 52 ar! and it was extremely hard to make one since you would need around 200 or more barbed leather to make them... the studded armor has a 17% exceptional chance.. By nerfing leather you wont make people buy plate... and you complain about the plate market? what about the leather market now? all leather i gather from dragons i will turn into silver now.. and those magical leather? gotta be kidding about them...
I dont care to use plate.. but this way you are only taking a specific kind of armor(leather) out of use... even though i thought it was more stylish than plate... i will stick to plate, as i said before its much cheaper since you have 44 ar with ice anyway...(same ar from exceptional barbed leather).
