Being able to move quickly and dodge attacks is always important against enemies like Grimm, so no Huntsman should ever being wading into battle fully decked out head-to-toe in spiky heavy metal plate.

Pyrrha is a good example of aesthetic armor. But don't go trying to visually emulate the Black Knight. Oh don't act like even half of the character designs in this show are suitable for actual combat. Yang should be getting thrown around by her hair in every fight she's in.

Besides, you can ballroom dance in full plate.

WC, if you want to bring Black Iron "Better Than You At This Game" Tarkus into the WoR, you go for it. No no, we have a policy on OP characters. But I do have an OC that is somewhat Dark Souls based and can turn into the Iron Golem (it's Gwyn btw).

But I hope my explanation fits, since it'd give people a reason to wear armor of any kind, as opposed to everyone just wearing t-shirts and calling it a day.
