Oversight in total resistance. The football helmet is still far heavier.
Though keep in mind that since one is plastic and the other is kevlar, the plastic football helmet will wear out much faster than the kevlar football helmet will.
pst, hey, while you’re at it, can I bring to your attention the volume of the katana? It’s 16, compared to the broadsword’s 7; seems like an oversight.

To be technical, a broadsword is a one-handed flat blade that’s comparatively short.
A katana is a long, curved blade intended to be wielded with two hands.
A baseball bat has a volume of 12, and a sledgehammer has a volume of 16 for comparison. It’s not that the Katana has too much, I think you’re probably imagining a greatsword or something two-handed when you’re thinking of the broadsword, which was a short wide blade meant for one-handed slashing and thick stabs.

Terms for ‘broadsword’ & the like are very much on the floozy side, but I’m inclined to believe the version represented in this game is the traditional generic ‘sword’ we all know.
I also think ‘volume’ is more a measure of encumberment, while weight is true size.
Volume is volume, as in the amount of space something occupies or how much water it would displace if placed into a tub, for example.
That being said I think someone should probably go through and adjust these values to be more uniform with each other because I’m seeing a bunch of stupid measures here.
1 volume is intended to be the size of your fist. If you think about it that way a lot of these values should probably go up.
Heh, but how accurate of a measurement is true volume really?
It only matters in-game when it’s in your backpack, and in that case which should take up more ‘volume’: a baseball bat or a crossbow?
Woohoo! Still a bit higher than I’d’ve set it at, but definitely more workable.
