I don't think you got what I mean. +5 studded leather has more defense than a breast plate so therefore there is a descrepensy if it has lethal damage applied to it.Shadeydm said:I don't think it is unreasonable for light armor to be treated differently than medium or heavy armor. Just think of medium or heavy armor the equivilent of wearing kevlar vs. modern firearms sure it probably won't kill you but it certainly leave you writhing on the ground with severe bruising and possible broken ribs. Sounds like you could call it non-lethal damage to me.
Also making it nonlethal to medium or heavy armor is unrealistic because trama from a bullet hitting kelvar can kill you so therefore it should be blunt damage instead of the unrealistic nonlethal damage.
