There's some truth in this. From my and PeterM's tests we
have seen that physical, being a melee attack is a bit less
dangerous than others. Of course, reducing physical resistance
*will* make the game harder for warriors, but not in a way
that it is byond sanity.

So we agreed to a total max of 90% armour:

boots           10
helmet          30
armour          60
shield          40
gauntlets       15   / gloves          10
cloak           20
bracers         10

total max:      90%

This is the theory. Has yet to be coded into the game of course.
