Some of the NPC´s looking strange for me at the Battle of Kaer Morhen.

Why?

It is a BATTLE!

Why to hell does the close combat Fighters have no Armor?

The clothes of the Witchers can count as armor, but are the clothes of Roche, Ves, Hjalmar or Zoltan look like armor? No, they doesn´t! It is streetwear!

In my eyes it would be good idea, to change the desingn of Roche, Ves, Hjalmar and Zoltan for the Battle. Give them an armor! CD-Projekt added an temerian Armor set, use it for Roche and Ves! There are walking enough Warriors at skelling to find a good armor desingn for Hjalmar. And for Zoltan: Zoltan, Dwarf, Chainmail!

NO!
Ves with armor is just like "licking snakes through a cloth".
Yennefer, Triss, Ciri >>> bundle them up in some sort of can?
Never!

The only reason for Roche to wear some cloth (mail underneath?) is because Wes is distracting all those meanies by wearing what she does the way she does. She can do that because she is really hard to "hit" (as Geralt might be able to tell :) ).

None of them are front line fighters, except for Hjalmar, and he's a Skeligge warrior, who never wear heavy armour. Even Roche and Ves are not front liners, they are skirmishers... commandos. There is absolutely no reason for any of them to be clad in tin cans... none: they would be at a huge disadvantage.

Agreed. It would be extremely hard to cast complicated spells in armors. What is more, each mage can use magical shielding so armor is redundant here.

Skellige warriors not always wear armor. It is Hjalmars choice not to wear it :P Vigi on the other hand wears a nice set of chainmail.

Ves is light armored. Roche most probably has some chainmail here and there.

None of them are regular soldiers so :P

Witchers wear a combination of studded and chained armors. All of them. Pretty much light armor that does not hinder movement.

Well, I find it more disturbing to walk into Oxenfurt wearing Nilfgardian armor and still will be unmolested (except for being a Freak)!

Temerian stuff in Novigrad and/or Oxenfurt: just the same.

First: I wrote about the warriors, why you are talking about the Sorceresses?

Second: I only speak about the Battle of Kaer Morhen, in the rest of the game the NPC´s should wear their current clothes.

Hjalmar: Have you see his father? He is wearing armor! The 3 Skellig warriors at the brothel in Novigrad? Armor! The Guards in the Villages? Armor!

Some worriors maybe don´t wear armor in their normal life, but when they know, there would be a hard fight, armor is a part of preparation for the battle!

I don't read Polish. And nobody is talking about the books, we are talking about the computer game, and Hjalmar *never* wears -- I typo'd "wear" in my original post -- heavy armour.

Hjalmar is a light, swift, crazy warrior. Most probably light armor, padded something stuff. Get over it :P
