This is a work in progress. Currently only body armor is missing. I am in progress on implementing my intended changes for body armor and it will be uploaded as soon as it is ready. Currently 224 helmets, 45 shoulders, 32 gloves, and 32 boots have been modified. 208 body armor changes are on the way.

Notable changes

Helmets
Lower tier helmets have been nerfed as they shouldn't provide as much protection as they did. Most other helmets have received buffs. Helmet lining aswell as coverage of different parts of the head/neck have become a bigger factor in the armor value. Helmets combined with mail coifs and full face visors have the most protection followed by full helmet mail coif combinations. A lot of helmets have been shifted around and had their names and armor values standardized so that by reading their name you can actually expect it to represent the pieces quality and expected armor value.

Shoulders
Shoulders were largely nerfed as they provided too much additional body armor while most of them didn't actually cover the body at all. Shoulders that cover the neck from the front, back, or sides have received additional head armor.

Body
Coming soon

Gloves
Gloves have seen some adjustments based on material type, size, and coverage. Some have seen nerfs and some buffs. Refer to spreadsheet for additional information.

Boots
Boots have seen a general weight increase as well as some general adjustments. Refer to spreadsheet for more info.
