Title: Helmets
Post by: Jimmeh on April 02, 2007, 12:17:59 am
i did a search and couldn't find a direct answer.
which helmet is considered "Medium armour" of sorts.
In different posts it says different things, so i thought i would ask outright

This should be explained in item description. Like a category or something.

- Added armor type to descriptions - for example, Leather Armor will say "Light Armor".  People were uncertain which kind of armor their helmets were.


:D

The mercenary helmet is not light armor, at least it doesn't seem to be. It has been a while since I wore one but when I did I kept getting damage to the head from critters that couldn't damage me otherwise due to my high value of light armor and thick skin. That is why I abandoned my first mercenary helm. Perhaps it has changed in the last couple of months.

I would think a light armor helm would have to be made of leather or some such.  *Pictures Snoopy as the Red Baron*   ;D

i dont think there is even such a thing as a light armour helmet and if there was it would have no practical use.

Well my character wears a leather pirate hat so i was hoping to see somthing of the sort actualy implemented. It would stop blows just as well as the rest of the light armor.

I think the diference between a leather helmet and leather body armour would be that the skull does a pretty good job of protecting the brain anyway. The rest of the body is pretty flimsy by comparison and needs to have added protection.
