Because when we are poor, homeless and starving... all that is left... is love

Haha, just kidding, its just that like half of fj is fags

I do.

In that case though, resilience would be the more precise term. Durability would also be superior, though like endurance you probably shouldn't use it to refer to the set of an animate and inanimate object (Or multiples of either or both).

Yeah, I suppose it's a little vague to use endurance, but I still accept its use with its broad range of possible inclinations. Still, you know what I mean, at least.

I do.

It allows you to resist damage at the expense of moving slower and not as far as say, someone in a loincloth. As a real world example, a fully armored knight was like the Atlas Mech of Medieval warfare, slow and unwieldy, but when they got to the fight, the fight ended fairly quickly. Put a horse under him and that disadvantage goes away.

Well yes, speed/mobility is an entirely different matter. I'm just referring to the capacity to take physical punishment in a fight.

See but the armor doesn't imbue you with the quality to take damage, the armor itself has that intrinsic quality. Unless we're talking Deus Ex and the "armor" is actually a Nanotech treatment that rearranges your skin and bones to make you more resilient.

True, but that's not exactly what I meant. The armour's artificial endurance compliments your own organic endurance, and the heavier the armour is, the greater that effect of protection. Of course, if you haven't properly trained to use heavy armour, the proportionality between your endurance while wearing it and the armour itself would be skewed.

It's a hypothetical to demonstrate my point, I felt I might have been unclear.

And yeh, clearly the stuff pictured is retarded. I just felt like discussing the semantics.

Finally, armour that makes sense!

Except like I stated above, it's only very rarely used to refer to the quality of an inanimate object.

It refers to both the ability to exert yourself and withstand injury, which is what heavier armour will assist with. That is what gives you the greater endurance.

First I don't think that's really what he said, second it's not entirely true. Say we had two identically conditioned individuals, put 50 pounds of armor and kit on one and 15 on the other and the one carrying 15 will always be able to run faster and farther. Now if you kept doing that the one conditioned to heavier weights would improve their endurance, but so would the one carrying the lesser weight. But it's an MMO so I don't think it really involves that sort of development so the real world conditioning question is irrelevant.

Nobody is identical. The idea is to develop yourself for your style ie. heavy armour will require strength/stamina training, where light armour will require something else. You don't just dump a suit of armour on someone and make them walk around ala Skyrim.

Even then, you have to question why you would just remove most of your existing light armour like in the picture. I know it's meant to appeal to the horny teens, but there's absolutely no sense to it in the first place. Just because you feel you can block attacks, you just throw away your protection?

Finally, armour that makes sense!

No, endurance is a measure of the amount of physical work a human or animal can do. Durability or resilience inform that an armor can survive a hit. Efficacy informs the effective quality of the armor.

I should also mention that endurance is also a synonym for both durability and resilience. It is a broad term.

Yup. My mistake there. OP is still wrong, though, since wearing heavier armour extensively will develop strength and stamina to a greater extent than extensively wearing lighter armour will. Human endurance will be greater in a heavy armour wearer.

Finally, armour that makes sense!

I guess because lighter armor is less strenuous to move around in? So actions are less physically draining?

Like, you're not going to run a marathon wearing the stuff pictured.

Endurance implies that you can take hits. Lighter armour will not take more hits than heavy armour. The word you want is mobility.

GW2>TERA. hueh uehuhue.


Anyone want a guild in gw2?

and look at that female armor!

female caster armor is still prostitute garments though :/

also i agree, gw2 is simply the best mmo experience i've had, and it was only a beta.

hope it lives. seem like a fine game, but i'm gunna stick with wow for now.

and then wow will die of old age and, GW2 can take its place


until that fateful night



when from the sleeping bowels of blizzard entertainment



comes the sleeping giant




world of starcraft TITAN!'
*blizzard employees cackling atop there fortresses made entirely on money

I shat myself laughing when the coffee arrived.
