Nope. Except if it has high encumbrace then it makes it wear on the mind but that's it.

There are currently two profession-specific reasons why a TKA might choose to avoid wearing armor.
The first is aesthetic... Many TKA players think that doing the acrobatic martial arts maneuvers while wearing full metal body armor looks wrong and will opt for loose clothing, robes, cloaks, or something that emulates a modern real-life martial arts outfit,
The second is because TKA has the highest toughness of any profession and so can get away without armor a bit more than other professions... Although note I said a "bit more", don't think it means that TKAs can just avoid armor because their natural defenses are so good. They just have a bit of an edge over others. Also, the natural toughness of a TKA only augments other defenses like those from buffs or armor.
