|Shardplate wasn't merely armor. It was so much more.
Agility and dexterity are increased by Shardplate. A person armored in Shard acquires faster reflexes and is more responsive in battle.{{book ref|sa1|58}}
The Shardplate helmet has a face shield with a horizontal eye slit for visibility. In dead Shardplate, when lowered, the shield becomes translucent to the wearer, but not totally clear, similar to dirty glass. The eye slit is therefore still needed for full vision, but even the partial translucence is very useful.{{book ref|sa1|13
Shardplate has the ability to use Stormlight to regenerate itself when damaged.{{book ref|sa1|15}} If sections of a suit of armor are destroyed or abandoned, they can be regenerated later by using Stormlight from the suit's gemstones. Once the Shardplate regenerates an abandoned piece, the previous piece will crumble to dust.{{book ref|sa1|69}} If someone got a small piece of a shardplate, they can feed it stormlight and try to grow the whole plate back, but the original owner with bigger portions of the plate could feed it more stormlight and would usually win in the growing competition. Repairing a heavily-damaged set of Shardplate can be costly, as it commonly cracks the gemstones used during the process.{{book ref|sa1|56}} Through some unknown method, common spheres may also be used to recharge and reinforce drained Plate.{{book ref|sa1|69}}
Due to its heavily Invested nature, Shardplate protects the user from most forms of [[Investiture]], including Surgebinding, though this effect is weakened if parts, such as the helm, have been removed.{{wob ref|3830}} It is not possible to use any lashings against someone armored in Shardplate. It is also not possible for a wielder of an Honorblade to Surgebind while wearing Plate, due to interference from the gemstones.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} At least some of the original Knights Radiant were able to Surgebind while wearing their armor.{{book ref|sa1|19}}
Shardplate cannot enter Shadesmar. If one tries to bring it into Shadesmar via an Oathgate, the armor gets left behind on the platform.{{book ref|sa4|21}}{{book ref|sa4|22}}
=== Living Plate ===
Living plate has all the advantages of dead plate, but has distinct differences. In living Shardplate, from the inside, the helmet is as transparent as glass and the eye slit is not necessary and can be sealed.{{book ref|sa4|64}} When a section of living Plate is damaged, the armor repairs it using the stormlight of the Radiant, and the spren that make up the armor apparently feel pain when the armor is damaged.{{book ref|sa4|64}}
== Acquiring and Donning ==
=== Dead Plate ===
As the knowledge of creating Shardplate has only resurfaced with the return of the Knights Radiant, a limited number of suits exist.
Because of its weight, Shardplate cannot be donned without assistance. The Shardbearer often has a team of armorers to assist with putting the armor on.{{book ref|sa2|14}} The armor must be applied from the ground up, starting with the sabatons, or the wearer would be unable to support its weight.{{book ref|sa1|26}} Regular clothing, boots, and additional padding are worn underneath the Plate. When applied, each individual piece of Shardplate tightens to fit itself to the contours of the wearer.{{book ref|sa1|26}}{{book ref|sa2|14}}
Although most suits of Shardplate known to exist are possessed by the human inhabitants of Roshar, [[Parshendi]] used to own Shards, though they have lost most of them in battle with the Alethi.{{book ref|sa2|i|4}}
=== Living Plate ===
{{theory}}
Living plate can be gained when a [[Knight Radiant]] has sword the sufficient number of oaths, usually the Fourth Ideal for most orders. It can likely be summoned and dismissed at will, rather than necessitating armorers to put it on you.{{book ref|sa4|113}}
