Plate and Chain Mail... Why?

[[L9] Rhinopotamus]

Why is do you have to go down the Vangaurd and Berserker Skill Trees to unlock plate mail, and go down Knight and Lancer to get mail...

Especially considering the mail armor is viking themed, knights in the later middle ages wore plate mail, and vikings, upon whom the term berserker comes from and is normally refering to, wore chain mail. Even the cosmetic skins of the game are based off viking themed armour, but if you wanna make a berserker... nope. You don't get to look like a viking you gotta look like some noble prick with a stick up his butt.

Does it matter? No.

"I can't look like a Viking. waaaaahhhh" <-- Berserkers didn't even wear armour so why complain about it if you want to be one in the game?

"Berserkers didn't wear armor"

No, fantasy berserkers don't wear armor. Real life "Berserkers" were personal bodyguards/champions who did wear armor, as they were the normally the most well equipped person in the "Viking" military besides the Jarl/King himself.

It does matter if you have limitted skill points, and can't obtain both. It's also just blatantly stupid to put plate mail in with the "berserker" and chainmail in with with the Knight/Lancer (where you obtain a jousting lance...)

Armor really shouldn't be tied to these arbitrary weapon/fighting skills, but to their own skills.
