#3319, "Cranial and helmets"


          

Hello.

As I understand, helmets with good AC vs bash helps better against cranials. But still I have more questions:

1. Does material matters?
2. AC vs bash helps against lagging, helps against knock out, helps against damage?
3. Crowns with amazing svs bashing will work same as helmets with the same svs bashing?
4. Does difference in size matters (yes, it's not about helmets, but about cranial). I.e. if I am bigger than my target, will cranial works better? If my target is bigger than me, will my cranial works worse?

Thanks in advance!

>1. Does material matters?

Some materials are more likely to have higher AC, but ultimately the AC is the only number you care about.

>helps against damage?

Lag for sure. Not sure about the others offhand.

>3. Crowns with amazing svs bashing will work same as helmets
>with the same svs bashing?

You need something that's type armor and not treasure or clothing.

>4. Does difference in size matters (yes, it's not about

If size differential doesn't disallow cranial entirely I don't believe it's a factor.
