Greaves and Cuisses

[josephmchugh1997]

Is there any reason why Greaves and Cuisses can't be worn together? The only reason I can think of is that it would be basically the same as some master level plate leggings. But there are models that are present for Cuisses that seem to have matching Greaves, and those models aren't present for full leggings.

Yes, only the newest ones can be worn together.
But after various tests i can say ai targets calves very rarely. The best combination for expert is cuisses, leather boots and no chain leggings so you have many points to spare for more vulnerable areas like head or chest.

Yeah, it seems very rare that they attack the calves, but man do they go for the thighs. The vast majority of the hits the AI gets on me is in the thigh.

The thigh is the easiest spot to hit. Attacking extends your body and leaves a leg out front. It's easier to defend at mid ab level to the neck as your arms are already in the area, even after an attack.

I hardly ever leave my thighs Un armored. I give up chest pieces before thigh guards. It's too easy to take a solid strike down low, where blocking up higher is far easier.
