Wood (3.5e Equipment)

Wood
This special material is not well suited to making weapons or armor, but it can do in a pinch. More nature-focused groups tend to use this as opposed to metal due to their standards or because they are forbidden to use metal.

Any weapon, armor or tool (things like crowbars and hammers) made of metal can be made of wood instead. Weapons and armor so converted have half as many HP. Weapons made in this fashion deal 1 less damage per attack, while armor made in this fashion has its armor check penalty increased by 1 point. Tools made of wood simply have their hitpoints cut.

Because wood armor isn't made of metal, druids can wear it without penalty.

Wood weapons, armor and tools are actually cheaper than their metal counterparts, as seen on the table.

Wood has 10 hit points per inch of thickness and hardness 5.
