I know plate body armour will glance some hits,but which helmets will also do this?
As you look at the helmet list on c-rpg its hard to tell .
Suggest this is added to the properties list for each item.

Good question.
I recently asked basically the same question about armor property differences and was told
there are no properties other than the armor rating in comparison to the damage-
if the difference is great enough i was told it will glance...
so if that is true then the looks of the armor is pretty much just superficial and the armor rating is what really matters.

I think only armor rating matters. The hitbox is same no matter what you wear.
Of course this is merely my uneducated non-modder guess.

The more armour [rating], the more chance of glancing. Doesn't matter what type you are wearing. What matters is the kind of weapon damage and how much PS you have (the better damage the less chance of glancing).
Blunt>Pierce>Cut damage. Cut is better against unarmoured, Blunt receive the least amount of damage mitigation and in the middle pierce, kind of.

I think the chances of glancing are based on a few things:
The dmg of the blow (after taking into account speed, base dmg, proximity etc)
Armour rating of the piece that's hit.
Thats it really. If you dont do enough damage in a blow or are too close you will glance.

isn't it pierce>blunt>cut?
because i believe that they added knockdown and crudhthrough for blunt so it wouldn't be even more overpowered than pierce :wink:

Damage vs armor rating. Damage is slightly varied on every hit (a random 5 or so more or less damage on average). Also hitting earlier in the animation doesn't give the weapon a chance to speed up, causing less damage which is what causes most glances.
