Why there are no gloves with 2 body armor rating?

I know that leather gloves were almost too good before so you decided to nerf them along with other gloves. But we could use new gloves which will fill out the gap between leather gloves and mail mittens.

I don't have a new model for them but I propose combination of current models of leather gloves and mail mittens. Just replace the mail part with leather but keep the wrist band and you'll have the new model for 2 armor gloves :wink:

On a side note, this reinforced modifier for leather gear is pure bullshit. If anything light armor should get more armor points when loomed than medium/heavy gear, to make it more worthwhile.

Huh, no, never !
Now that gauntlets weight affecting wpf is x4, there's a real dilemn between using "good" armor, or the "best-without-reducing-wpf" one.

I was talking about body armor there :wink:

But I think that light and medium/heavy gloves should have the same modifiers.

Gloves=body armor

How useful would hand armor be, exactly?
Hooray for customization and hybridization!
Down with monotonous pure classes!

Is it really that hard to pick between 1 or 3 body armor?

2 armor gloves should be padded, to match the various aketons.

Seems to me that Scale Gauntlets are a good candidate for modding. Just need to remove the scales and reinforce them a bit with some sort of a wrist band. We can call them Leather Gauntlets.
