greggbert Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Hi! Saw this yesterday in my game but I might be wrong. I was wearing a marble suit (78%) and a new football helmet (100%). I got into some serious combat with werepigs and when I was done I'm pretty sure the football helmet was at 40% and the Log suit remained at 78%. I lost almost no health. Can anyone confirm that the Football Helmet takes 100% of the wear in that situation? If so, that's really good, since pig skins are more renewable than marble. Oh I'm playing ROG by the way if that matters.

orian34 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 The game itself does not distinguish any sort of pre defined priorities of armor, instead takes them on the fly. Therefore, while it might be hard to keep track of what armor receives the most damage, it can be manageable.Primary armor, i.e. the armor that absorbs the most damage, is always the last equipped. In order to save one's helmet, he would be to equip the helmet first, then the suit. If a suit is hot switched, i.e. replaced right away, it keeps its positions. However, if there is any moment in which the helmet slot is empty (occurs when a helmet breaks, even if the player has a replacement in his inventory), the helmet assumes the primary slot and the suit has to be taken off and equipped again.It has been reported that reloading the game could change the positions. If not sure what armor is primary, just unequip your suit and equip it again, and the suit will become the primary.Keep in mind that even the most beaten up log/grass suit still retains its original fuel value, therefore does not have to be used up. Instead of heading into the battle with an armor of a low durability, risking the helmet assuming primary slot mid-fight, try equipping the shiny new suit and leaving the old one for when the night comes. One can also use this to easily hot switch the armor mid-battle when the original one nears its end.

greggbert Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Well since marble is more scarce than pig skins I like having the option to preserve my marble armor practically forever.

XirmiX Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 One of my Thulecite crowns stopped at 1% durability and did no protection, thought the shield was still activating every so often. Any ideas why this is? I despawned the crown sinse it made me die a stupid death. I am using RoG btw.

the truthseeker Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Oh, and in RoG, marble on the surface s also no longer rare. Heck, it's nearly common.
