It sort of effects me... every once in awhile I get a hit for about 40% more damage than normal, so whenever I fight I put on the helmet, and I take it off when not fighting. Not very exact, I know, but I do see some effect.
Btw nice sig, Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies =)

it doesnt make a difference having it on or off anymore - you still get full hindrance from even wearing 1 piece, its not cumulative per piece like it used to be. So no reason to ever take your armor off.

Right after the CU I did some testing on wearing partial armor VS full armor. If you don't wear a helmet and you get hit in the head you take full damage. My helmets seem to be decaying fairly rapidly, so I would have to assume that I get hit in the head alot.
I really wish this were not the case since the padded armor helmet looks so utterly stupid. The damn thing even has a handle on the back for cripes sake. Ah well...
I am really hoping that since battle armor is use by about 50% of the professions now... that some new type of battle armor will be introduced. Something that has a better looking helmet. One without the plate on the head look and the handle.
