Sarranid Elite Armor is one of strongest armors in the game being inferior to Plate Armor and with identical stats to Coat of Plates, Khergit Elite Armor, and Vaegir Elite Armor. It will only ever be worn by Sarranid vassals or the player.
The design appears similar to mirror armor used by the Ottoman Empire, although mirror armor is made with distinctive metal plates while the Sarranid Elite Armor seems to consist of a flexible material.
