I dunno about a sword, but a lance would sure as hell suck
armour is smooth so blows deflect off of it
swiss papal waifu
adding ways for the point of swords to catch will fruck up your armour
If the a sword gets deflected, it's still deflected, it doesn't have the same force as a strike to the chest
you'd still need something with the hardness+force to pierce the armor
so a sword tip?
diverting a pierce into a central cavity doenst guarantee death against normal swords, but vs spear/arrows it does
no it doesnt get deflected lol
Depends on the style. Basic chestplates, yeah, probably
it goes
*into* the chest
the force is split though
the force is barely changed
No it doesn't go into the chest, that's no how forces work
a glance into a hard blow is better than a straight blow
if it was properly deflected
i mean its significantly better that a blow deflects rather than impacts
like initial strike subrtracts a certain abount of force
I think Shad has a video on this exact topic
then the rest goes to the crevice
shad as in shadman?
yeah but you want as many neutons as possible off to the side
Shadiversity
shadiversity presumably
oh ok
idk man shadman shows up when you least expect it
i mean it's not *great*
hey man
>Shadman
but it's probably not as bad as it's made to be
if you want to spend hundreds of dollars on a boob plate
and then test it
go nuts
as an aside
Holy shit
