Leg Armor! Below the kneecaps or hips/waistline?

What constitutes as leg armor? Everything below the hips/waistline, or just below the kneecaps?

I'm over 90% sure it's only below the kneecaps, where the boots actually are (like in display #1), but I'd like to know for sure. 8-)

Edit: I understand that the brown pants (thigh area) in the image are actually part of the body armor's physical model, but I'm wondering if getting attacked in that 'brown pants/thigh' area counts as a leg hit or body hit?

I guess everything below the waistline is what you're asking. The boots are the majority of leg armour (kneecap down), but if you look on the website most body armours also have leg armour values too, which would be from the waist to the kneecap.
No sense in nonsense when the heat is hot

I should have worded my post differently lol. I guess I'd just like to know if getting hit, for example, in the 'thigh' is a strike to your leg armor or body armor?

Don't forget, horses can't wear shoes. You can snap the ankles off a plated charger just as easily as a donkey's leg since their armor doesn't apply to foot shots. Fat-horse-havers hate this one weird tip.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

Code: [Select]
if hit_bone == head:
effective_damage *= 1.2

if item_is_ranged:
effective_damage *= 1.75
elif hit_bone == calf or hit_bone == thigh:
effective_damage *= 0.9

So everything at the thigh or below.

The part of the thigh hitbox that you're able to hit changes depending on the animation of the target player though, since some of it is inside the abdomen.

That explains why a lot of my arrows/bolts seem to pass right through my target.  Thanks.

Thanks for showing the hitbox Huscarlton, I always thought it was below the waist for "legs", so I was partially right :P
