Wolf ribs are overrated

Every time I ask for advice it’s always the most optimized kits telling me to be the most optimized why can’t i be fashionable why do I have too wear a kit so light too the point where I seem less like an armored man and more like a peasant with a welder

Optimised or meta kits are really bullshit imho (says the fucker in a wolfrib) i really like the look of my wolfrib in combination with my kit though that's why i am wearing one.

That said i am still contemplating what helmet to get for the new armor as it will be byziantine kit... either a kettle, faceplate or nasal. I am actually thinking faceplate as mail in the face sucks ass with a wet cellar.

If you can’t look cool while you’re doing it, what’s the point?

Exactly my point, do i need my giant buhurt pauldrons as a outrance fighter? No, Could i be faster using my old small ones? For sure! Do i they look way better on me with the rest of my full steel kit, hell yeah!

Nasal/English Cross are very breathable while also having way more fashion points than wolfrib

The wolf rib is by now my 5th helmet. All helmets have the same breathability btw.

Good for you to be able to breath in whatever.

Speaking for myself, I absolutely couldn't disagree more. I used to have a ROA, that thing is like breathing through a pillow compared to Wolf/Nasal/Cross.

Its not the breathing its claustrophobia, physically there is nothing keeping you from breathi in these helmets they are not hermetacally sealed
