Hi Dark, Hmmmmm....I see your point. The problem with your idea is that the Lion's hide certainly would be lighter than the bronze armour so she should be able to move faster and more easily than with the bronze armour and shield. Plus it would give her protection from almost any blade. I don't know about fireballs though. It would be made out of lion hide and one would think it wouldn't be impervious to fire.
I'd have to think about this some. As there has to be some sort of disadvantages to having the lion's hide. On the other hand if you have the lion's hide the game could raise the enemies stats to sort of balance things out. Yeah, you can take much more damage, a real beating, but the monsters you are likely to find on higher levels are also the elite in the tomb. Cheers!
