Copilot says got Kechubong Helmet and Lamina. I guess the Lamina is from the word Laminate? Can't seem to be able to find picture. I guess back then the Malay land was more peaceful.
Even in old Malay period movies that I have watched, I never see heavily armored warrior character.

Cuz they use cloth..
Balut sarung

Tidak sempat capai level 90. Kita baru level up sampai level 30, the portugis datang invade.

Cause they don't need

Epic or Legendary gear?

Panas gila wear armor made of metal under hot sun.

Damn sure people last time not gila.

Deswai everytime Kedah, Kelantan sultanate war with siam army, always lose one…

Who needs armor when you have magic talismans and daggers?

Ts dah pasang berapa biji rtx 5090, 5080?

is u got try sit on car hood at peak noon in Malaysia?

Now imagine you are not sitting on the metal. but wearing it instead

Read about the freedom fighters, initial fights always they won against the brits. Only lost after a few battles

That's because the lighter you wear the more i frames you get

Because they are AGI type and not STR.

Evasion + 50%
Dodge + 50%

But damage taken is automatically a crit 150% dmg.

Armor tu Kan pengaruh barat, they shun it since Malacca Sultanate days

Real Malay warriors wear sarong to fight baru kebal

silly meh... why not try to wear iron armor of like 10 to 20kg weight and walk around under noon sun.

and then try to pee a few times when wearing those armor... see how much fungal infection one will kena.

Because :
1. Lack of iron ore for materials and imports are crazy expensive
2. Lack of technique to smelt iron
3. Lack of outward military ambition so no motivation to solve both above conundrum
4. Lack of wealth to aspire to #3

Cos in malay folklore.. got talisman/keris sakti can make you kebal, what armor?

civilization is slow. most of them are very outdated during ancient time. still use crooked dagger to fight when people have long sword. that is also the reason why british bring indian come ezy conquer, japan come also easy.
you can also say god protected them very long until penjajah come, their combat ability are not being tested. thats why their fighting style silat is more towards arts than actual combat practicability. very spiritual techinique.

when british bring gun come, they see silat style slow mo, they are laughing so much until give face to them. imagine crooked dagger pull out also that so long time, bulet already bypass their brain.

someone please make ai about silat vs gun clip must be hilarious.

Thats why 300 conquistadores can easily take down a zaman 'kegemilangan' melaka

Never heard of ilmu kebal ke?

Rumor has it tok gajah is impenetrable by bullets

they drink air zam zam to increase their agility and speed.
Kebal tak payah la in hot weather.

Malay also invented modern pistol, called terakol

Who needs armor when you can bersilat sambil terbang.

Lol, funny response in this thread.

Don't need armor, keris can deflect incoming bullets.

people kinda forget that we're on an archipelago.

most of your fighting will be on or near water. you can spend a lot on armour but if your ship gets hit, youre going to reach the bottom of the sea before the ship does.

Fixed it for you.

Shit if this pinoy movie sure got sex scene

Eihh.. u sure or not ??
They got cannons to fight the Portuguese , which is meriam buloh.

Do you wear coats like oir friends in say Europe or North America do?

Want to collapse due to heat ?

Keris taming sari can liao

Yup,

Swamps, mangrove, tropical rainforest with dense undergrowth.. Wanna wear heavy armour to fight? Gila.

It's dense jungle. Whole Malaysia covered in jungle back then. You wear armour later ants get inside and leeches get inside then how?

If you look at the design it looks like Roman Empire. Not a single Nusantara, Siamese or Arabic design element on it.

Plot armor is enough.

kan ada topi putih

Actually the answer to why we never hard metal or leather armour is because these materials never reached this part of the world before trade started. If there was metal done in trades, it was most likely used to make purposeful products like nails that could build house and boats. And used to make knives and probably machete for working on food and processing jungle produce. It is stupid to think armour was the first use when metal is a valuable commodity for food, shelter and probably weapons. I do not think metal spear heads ever made publicly available to the people besides the royalty that used it for guards because they could afford them.

Got flying machete, no need body armor

if u play AOE game, Msia not enough time to advance to another age, the strategic locations is why the Portuguese decided to colonize it.
