Hi all,
im not sure if a thread for this excists or not as ive looked but couldnt find an anwser quikly.. Ive noticed some weird things when it comes to troops and their gear.
Like for example the khuzait heavy lancer line. All of them have outright dreadfull leg armor. The top tier one has eastern curved boots who only give 5 points of leg armor. Their chest piece the heavy lammelar over mail will also add some leg armor to that, but theyre still at about half of the leg armor of heavy cav units from other factions. And since legs are a very vunerable part on cavalry thats a mayor weakspot. The top tier one doesent get an hand armor upgrade compared to the tier 4 one either, both have rough tied bracers. Barding on the horses LOOKS the same for the tier 4 and tier 5 but we cant see the stats so I cant comment there
To stay in the Khuzait tech tree: The tier 3 mounted archer the Khuzait raider has better boots then the Khuzait horse archer. The horse archer has a better chest piece for higher overall leg armor but thats besides the point. Why are troops getting a downgrade in some of their armor pieces?
Even further back down the line, the Khuzait tribal warrior has a tier 2 thick fur hood helmet with 12 armor and the tier 3 Khuzait horse archer has a tier 1 cap with neck flap helmet for 6 armor. Makes total sense that my higher tiered unit gets worse armor kappa
I can perfectly understand wanting a certain astethic for our troops but please dont let that be a deciding factor for how much (or little) armor our troops end up having because the latter has a impact on their combat performance while the former does not. We upgrade our troops and their gear gets an upgrade to reflect this so it makes 0 sense for their gear to actually get a downgrade.
I dident go over all factions as I was just inspecting the Khuzaits because im recruiting some of them for mounted archers at the moment but please look into this.
