        There’s an armour set with similar wing elements in Elder Scrolls Online, too

      Some of the mausoleum knights in elden ring for sure have wing armor like this. Cant say about the helms though as they are headless

        It’s always so fascinating seeing new historical inspiration turn up for these games! It’s truly cracked.

    Does its job well. I would be pretty goddamn intimidated if I was facing someone wearing this in battle.

    Just to say - the Polish nobleman had a duty to have equipment on their own. The Polish crown didn’t pay anything for this nor for the service. If the crown require money on war, the parliament ( of nobleman) had to approve tax on themselves

      No, but it was a good suggestion. I had a whole cache of photos to sort through, and just happened to get to the armor before I saw the comment.
