Iron nods and pulls out 5 bits. When bought, Iron wears it and places his pouch of bits hangingi on the belt. He also wants to find another small to medium pouch to store rocks inside.

Iron nods again and buys it, doing the exact same motion of hanging the pouch on the belt. Now he'll seek for small rocks to pick up. He knew that some cowards have wings, so he would need a decent backup for them.

Are rocks lethal when thrown?

Sure. What is more difficult is imagining to be on par with a Longbow or Crossbow. I guess maybe if the rock is bucked by the hing legs it would be comparable to a crossbow?

"i'm afraid it's a bit of a dire situation. This morning we sent a colt out to South end of the property to fetch some wood, little Sunny Day. But Sunny day hasn't been back, and he isn't in the orchard. A colt said he was talking with sunny last night and Sunny thought it was a shame he never got to see the old Priory building. We think he went over that way. The thing is, that's in a heavily wooded and dark area. Wildlife in Equestria isn't known for being nice, and it can be dangerous out there. We were hoping you could help us try to find Sunny"

A good choice. Inside the city there are a couple river fronts. The river must have moved or been otherwise molested, because the stones don't appear particularly suited for his purposes. Further South, however, is pristine riverbank. This looks like a place for good stones

>>69001
"Come this way"
She takes you outside of the chapel and to the south of the property. You can see the Orchard there, and beyond it a vastly thicker strand of trees.
"This area beyond the orchard was one of the oldest parts of our order. It became used much less when we moved to the new buildings over here, and the old priory was abandoned maybe 15 years ago. It's become a part of the wilderness now, and we sold the property two months ago to new owner."

He stays there for a bit, relaxing near the riverbank. To think ponies decided to leave behind this life of freedom for security. They deserve their misfortune as a society. He thought about the pony spewing nonsense at the bar last night. He dressed kind of funny and had an insignia if he remembered correctly. He should keep that in mind when his next assignment arrives to ask about that.

And I don’t mean like an ordinary grey wolf that is smaller than a pony, no, this is the grey wolf’s badass grandpa: the Dire Wolf. Like a timber wolf, but a bit fleshier and less magical.

Cotton stuff holds up the bear skin, and it’s too large for the whole thing to be lifted off the ground. “This beauty is 30 bits, and a wolf is 25. As for armor, well, if you’re looking for what the elite trust to protect them, well, there’s a high end store called ‘pommel’ that up front sells fancier clothes than you’d care for, but in the back sells high grade armor if you ask.

Sister Ash pushes the five foot ball of fire menacingly towards the beast, simultaneously using it as an improvised shield (it would have to move around the ball).
The sky above crackles with energy, as she prepares a readied action call down another bolt of lightning on it if it makes another threatening move.

With her wild empathy, she signals to the wolf to begone, or face her wrath, her left eye now leaking flames and half her face charred black as she growls through wounded pants.

I've had it.
Sister Ash gives a prayer in her bative language, and a bolt of lightning drops down on the wolf, where it stands.

Iron is confused. "What advantages and drawbacks do both options entail? Can I do this process on my wolf hide as well?"

"Well, you see the hide on it's own isn't that strong until treated. When it is treated, we could make a substance that will do a lot to stop animal bites and knives, but won't do much to stop a bullet, and the more forceful and direct attacks from claws and knives. It will let you move around a lot, however.

Nylon and steel, however, are bulkier and heavier. But they are much better at stopping attacks. A basic flack jacket is mostly nylon with some steel plating, and is mostly maneuverable and less protective, and you can add more steel for more weight and more protection. If you opt for the steel and nylon, we can use the fur as a sort of aesthetic venir so it looks like a bear hide, or maybe even attack the plate directly to the bear hide in place of nylon.

Think about what kind of hunter you want to be. Do you want to be swift and able, but not as able to take hits, or slow but sturdy.

As for costs, the heavier armor will cost a hell of a lot more, but what else is money for?

Basically look at the armors in the Medium Armor class on this page, and choose what you want. Also see Splint Mail armor in the "Heavy" category"

Is that with taking racial adjustments into consideration?

The wolf is hit by lightning, and with a loud whimper, runs away as far as it can from the witch dragon pony
