The Novite platebody is an item that can only be obtained and used while training Dungeoneering. It may be picked up from the table at the beginning of a dungeon, obtained as a monster drop, or produced using the Smithing skill.

It can be produced by using 5 Novite bars with a hammer on an anvil, requiring level 9 Smithing and granting 72.5 smithing experience. This armour is similar to bronze as it is the weakest and most easily obtainable in the Dungeons. Novite ore is the least expensive ore you can obtain from the Smuggler, and it can be smithed to produce novite armour.

Stat-wise, the novite platebody is very similar to the iron platebody, having 1 less in slash, stab and crush defence.

Many players do not seem to worry about how weak the armour is, as most of the monsters in the Dungeon hit less often even with only Novite. Like with all tiers of armour in Daemonheim, the Novite platebody is stronger than the Novite chainbody in terms of slash and stab defence bonus.
