I agree with the OP if by armor you mean living armor. You must always bring meatshields. Many, many meatshields. Become a necromancer for reusable meatshields.

Ranged combat is deadly again, which means you can't roleplay Beowulf anymore.

Deadly for us at least.
I've seen a long series of bandits get peppered with adamantine serrated discs (Dwarven shuriken!), only for them to calmly pull them out and drop them on the floor.

...Also a wolf. I'm not sure how she pulled it out.

Actually I find that archery is really good for players as well.  I have been shooting the crap out of people recently and it is super-effective!  It seems that bolts and arrows when fired from crossbows or arrows can even knock people back.

Crossbow bolts have always been nasty when they hit.

But after this patch, single arrows are wrecking my characters. I've lost three now, two to arrow traps, and a third to a kobold archer. If it's not a lung shot, it's a fractured bone and passing out in the middle of combat. If it's not a hit to the spine instantly paralyzing you, it's getting one right in the dome.

I think I agree with the assessment above that the best armor is lots of friends. Consider it a mercy to them, they'll die of starvation anyways.
