It is also more realistic in game for those characters that don't wear armor to actually be easier to hit. it should be easier to injure a  person wearing leather armor than a person wearing thick heavy metal armor, unless the first person is extremely good at dodging(a high dexterity).</p></blockquote><p></p>
