Accessories override armor?
« on: July 29, 2014, 05:59:03 pm »

I gotten killed a couple of times by "X stabs you through the diorite crown brusing brain etc.." I wearing this crown on top of an iron helm. Did the attack ignore my iron helm? Do accesories offer extra protection?

The combat messages do not declare every clothing layer they pass through. The stab went through the iron helm, and through the crown, but it only displays the crown.

Never mind. See bug report in Footkerchief's post.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

What accessories are safe to wear that aren't bugged? Rings would screw over gauntlets right? What about ear-rings? Do earrings screw over helmets?

They're all safe. It's a display bug.

Probably.
