Strategic Use

This clothing is particularly beneficial for characters who rely on Strength but may not wear heavy armor, such as certain Barbarian builds (if unarmored defense is not prioritized over this specific buff), Monks focusing on Strength, or any spellcaster or character looking for a significant Strength boost and a useful combat maneuver without armor proficiency penalties. The Bull Rush ability is excellent for creating space, pushing enemies into hazards, or breaking enemy formations.
