Troops have way too much HP, seems unrealistic

[Nite/m4re]

Troops seems to have way too much HP, even when compared to Warband or what would be realistic. Does anyone else feels the same way?
For example, unarmored looters shouldn't be able to survive a arrow in the neck, or two spear stabs in the face.

In this screenshot, I delivered a 80 damage arrow headshot on a looter and he's still up and fighting. It just feels off

I agree. I made quite a few head shots on looters. I was very surprised to see they didn't go down...

I kill them with one swing of the sword.

Maybe they should just buff archery a tad, or make the lack of head armor/little head armor a bigger penalty.

Yeah I've been hitting guys in the head while going by full speed on horseback. My sword doesn't even knock them down. The blood shows it was a square hit to the head.

I think most troops have around 100 health.
Armor decreas damage and make them more durable.

IDK if it is to much health. You don't die instantly from 2 arrows in your shoulder.
But headshots should do much more damage or without helmet always be instant kill

the scales changed. Before you started with 40 hp, now you start with 100. "80 damage" does not mean anything, now there are other parameters.
