All ordinary body armor can be mythic and legendary.
Dragon scale mails are changed from NetHack. They are heavier and incur a spell casting penalty, except for white dragon scale mails that are conductive of magic and incur no such penalty. Thus, except for the white variant, dragon scale mails are not a very good choice for a wizard. Dragon scale mails cannot be mythic or legendary.
