ARGHHH!!! Stupid Iron!
« on: February 17, 2011, 08:57:27 pm »
My adventurer is an axe lord with an iron axe. He has slain two trolls, a goblin, and tons of human bandits.
He was traveling with three or four new companions.
He was ambushed by several goblins with iron helmets and mail shirts.
All my adventurer could do was SOMETIMES hurt their extremities. Sure, the goblins hit occasionally, but not enough to hinder me.

WHY IS ARMOR SO HARD TO PENETRATE?!?!?!
This is the first battle I've even considered fleeing! WTF?

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

It's probably that iron is better for armor than it is for blades. It's good for blades, though. Just better for armor. If you have a free hand, wrestle them, grab the helmet, interact with it (shift+i) to gain possession and drive your axe through their skull.
