TK-6162[501st] Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Gotta ask, How difficult is it to relieve oneself when armored up? Is it troublesome or a smooth operation? I know when under full medieval plated armor or chainmaile one must start to make arrangements immediately when he or she even thinks they have the urge. Is this a pain in the hiney or just a small obstacle that one must face while trooping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandatrooper[TK] Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 If your cod piece is cut (separated into two pieces, just below the belt) it's very easy. Undo the crotch strap, flip up the cod and access the "evacuation port". If the cod is one piece, you're going to need to remove the cod / butt section depending on how you have it rigged.

Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 My cod is not cut. I just loosen the belt and drop one of the thighs to give me "room", then reach under as needed. Works so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehickey Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 This brings up a big detail: don't get a full body suit, get leggings and a top so that once you've opened your armor up, you still have an opening in your under armor as well, otherwise everything's got to come off!

tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 If you go right before you get suited up and only drink enough during the troop to prevent dehydration, it may not be a problem. If anything, I tend to sweat in armor so much that going #1 becomes a non-issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debater2nd[TK] Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 The way that Daertrin described the process sounds right to me...if you try, make sure you have a steady hand! It's not much fun, but do-able! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Sitting can be difficult, but doable. The harder part is getting back up. Of course it also depends on how you build your armor. There is one TK in my garrison who can not only sit in armor, but can actually comfortably cross his legs.
