Having made my own chain shirt of galvanized iron at one point, I can testify that a vest from neck to waist, with shoulders (not sleeves) weight 40 lbs by itself. I'd also like to point out an in-game observation.  The Gallant Sultansworn armor in particular that a lot of people call full-plate is in fact only half-plate.  It has boots, gauntlets, and shoulders of plate, but the hauberk is a mixture of chain and scale mails. Yeah, there's actually very little full plate in the game. Mostly just generic, aetherial armor, the darksteel armor, and darklight armor. Oh and I guess Of the Divine War set and Varlet's set technically are fullplate as well. The Noct set has a lorica in a vaguely greco/roman style with ludicrous pauldrons. The Ironworks, I er, I dunno. Kevlar? 「蒼気砲」を使わざるを得ない! AV by Kura-Ou Wiki (Last updated 01/16) My Balmung profile.
