This has got to be an error on Jeff's part. I mean, really.

The armor +20% seems a bit excessive...probably should be armor +2% and then +10% hostile effect resistance.

I was a bit surprised to find sandals that protected me more than my shield, I must admit.

Yeah, here's a sig. On to more posts...

Man. Gazerskin Sandals are the only things that you can put on your feet that prevent your head from getting cleaved off.
The last "0" has to be a typo. Otherwise, it's a mistake.

Well, putting this together with the impassibility of tiny stalagmites, we might conclude that the Gazerskin Sandals are the only footwear in all of Avernum that actually have soles. The unique plantar comfort this provides makes your combat stance so much more relaxed, it effectively boosts your armor by a ton. In A5 they will introduce Poor Leather Socks as a special item, which will have a partial effect in this direction.

Seriously, it could be that the Gazerskin Sandals are supposed to help you dodge, perhaps by giving you some Gazerish levitation powers that make you really bouncy and springy.

So Gazers are made of Flubber?

Does anybody know if the displayed values are actual strings or if they check the weapon statistics (from wherever they are; I don't do Spidweb scripting ;) )?

Occam's Razor, people. Jeff was lazy, and imported this item direct from Geneforge 3.

It's not exactly like there isn't a precedent for this sort of behaviour. Jeff didn't rebalance a lot of items for BoA. Some of them are exact copies of their Avernum 3 versions.

You'd hope that if/when A4 gets it's first patch - a few things such as these would be addressed.

I believe it is the latter.
