Quote: The fighters I mentioned consistantly do that kind of damage THROUGH GIANT ARMOR.

I can't wear giant armor and I don't believe I ever got hit for more than 40 through heavy emiel unless it was a critical or a near-critical hit. FF adds 9 points of damage max to a swing. Fighters mentioned most certainly do NOT do that kind of damage consistantly.

I do single digit to maybe low teens damage through a giant armor with a two hander.

And as far as DR goes, mine is just as bad.
