damge zones and armor

[subsys]

does anyone know if you armor affects the hit zones in which it is placed?

ie if you shove on duranium 4 trousers is this going to help stop your legs from getting broken by energy weapons? or will waring a duranium helmet do exactly the same job despite being in the wrong place.

as in wherever you put the armor it does exactly the same job?

yeah

this is supported by the fact that your feet and waist are not hitzones

the +resists armour gives you apply to all hitzones

unless something spooky is going on....

it made more sense that it did effect the area in which it was placed so i presumed that was the way it was untill i stoped and thought about it, hence request for confermation.

thanks for the help
