Which would make it better to resist armor piercing strikes from something like a warpick. Weapons we haven't seen much of anyway. I think the biggest weakness of carved is the lack of metal plates in certain areas. 1 Power corrupts, absolute power... is a whole lot of fun!

Which the Nordic Carved does look similar to his own, just not as protective. Reveal hidden contents Ysgramors Armor doesn’t look anything like full plate. If anything it’s a predecessor to the Nordic Carved! And your picture doesn’t work bro 2 Fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that's why I said quasi-full plate. Albeit he still has vambraces on both arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything it’s a predecessor to the Nordic Carved! And your picture doesn’t work bro Dammit, wish hotlinking worked half the time. Basically why I call it quasi-full plate is that the breastplate while being heavily decorated still looks proper enough and even tapers a little at the waist. His legs and feet are fully protected, greaves, sabatons, cuisses. Now the arms are were it becomes quasi-full plate, because it's pauldrons and vambraces with either bare skin or a tunic.

In that case it won’t be as much of a problem since there will probably be a solid month or so between the elf one and the Nord one anyway. Might still not be long enough, but it will be enough to get a start so any time skipping we do won’t be drastic. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTC Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 On the discussion about plate armor, I’ve always taken a lot of inspiration for Breton plate armor from that Nordic plate set because it looks good but isn’t really Nordic. I think Bretons would have a similar style with their own runes and such, and instead of fur have a cloth piece hanging down. Or fur that’s from High Rock. And I agree that plate armor doesn’t really fit for the Nords. I think their heavy armor that’s augmented with fur and leather is more their style 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Nordic heavy armors, it’s a damn shame that the classic trollbone set didn’t make it into Skyrim. At least Brund and Hrokvikd brought pieces of it into the RP. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
