Yeah. Poitain is more plate than mail, which kinda makes sense, because their knights are described wearing shiny plate. That said, maybe the light and medium armors wouldn’t need to be “lighter knights”, but they are what they are.
Variants of mail armor have been used in the real world across two thousand years in most of Europe and Asia, as well as parts of Africa - so basically all of the places that served as inspiration for Howard’s Hyborian Age. So I’d love to see more utilitarian variants of mail armor in the game too, rather than WoW-inspired fruit tree shoulder pads.
