Requesting aesthetic advice on what looks good with a Klappvisier.

[Tears of Destiny]

Having a budget of no more then 42K or 43K of equipment gear. (Since I have difficulty sustaining anything past that), and having to use a Klappvisier, Huscarl and Military Cleaver (18,464 already spent), what would you use to go well with the helmet?

I was originally using Wisby Gauntlets, Rus Splinted Greaves and Druzhina Elite Lamellar Armor, but the effect just did not look like what I intended and ended up looking rather ugly.

Theoretically I want a high protection outfit to act like a "tank" to take advantage of my high HP.

Suggestions?

Take traditional fallen armour: cuir bouilli over mail.

I use that together with a klapvisier and it looks mean.

[bosco]

RUS scale armor
Brigandine
Kuyak

All used and approved.

In case that he wants to use Rus Splinted Greaves - I would say the cuir boulli doesnt fit so good.

Take some of the armors what bosco said.
I would take the Kuyak (I own both light and heavy).

Kuyak is one of the best looking armors in the game. It has a great model and a high lvl of detail. It fits to nearly everything.
Many helmets can be used with it, and also all gloves, shoes and especialy all kind of weapons - 2h, pole, 1h and shield and so on.

Theoretically I want a high protection outfit to act like a "tank" to take advantage of my high HP.

Take the heavy kuyak. gives good protection.

And if you think you need more then perhaps a Transitional Armor could be used.
It looks also great with a Klappvisier, I sometimes use the same combo.

Klappvisier looks absolutely horrible with the fat armors. Plate of mails or whatever, cuir bouililiillil, banded armor..

Sarranid Guard armor perhaps? Fairly cheap when compared to the amount of body armor it provides. But lacks foot armor almost completly.
There are pleanty of other fallens using that one too, so you won't feel lonely

[a_bear_irl]

the problem with the klappvisier is that the mail coif looks awful when you're standing still

edit: tears write a guide on how to get your ingame name without underscores

[Kafein]

Brigantine or coat of plates with plate mittens and shynbaulds

You're a handsome man I'm pretty sure you can figure it out on your own.

And you are a smart man , i'm sure you can read and figure that this is Beginner section, so beginner (or not beginner we don't care ) ask question and if you don't want to answer , just freakin eat french fries and don't bother us.

Grey corrazina armor and mail boots , or Churburg and mail boots?

[Socrates]

Why so defensive? It was a joke for Tears. Obviously you can see we know each other.

[Dexxtaa]

Some people le srspants on today, Soc. Don't mind them.

at those French Fries, you dirty American.

Also, Tribal warrior outfit. Gorath does a good showing with that.

Rus scale is great. Just don't make the same mistake as most people of using gauntlets type gloves with it. Use mail mittens. Just look at baggy's screenshot, he's wearing gauntlets over the wrist guards that come with the armour, it looks stupid!
