The situation where a visor provides DR to the eyes. Targeting chinks in torso armor (-8) is easier than targeting chinks in eye armor (-11); -4 is significant enough to make a difference.
Which is good reason to say that armpits should be targeted at far better than -8. Should we assume waiting till arm is raised drastically improves the penalty?
Where is chinks in eye armor listed? Great helms with slits for narrow field of view is -10.
