About

" With giant foes some body parts take less damage - this appears to be not due to those parts having higher defense, but rather that fractional damage is done - for example hitting a cyclops' leg results in one fifth (1/5th) of the expected damage "

Why yes, the parts metioned are armored, especially all kinds of limbs are always armored: they buildup stagger/knockdown/debilitations slower and take reduced damage.

Examples are Griffins, Cockatrices, Chimeras, dragonkin, Hydras, Ogres (they are fully armored actually, with tiny weak spot around eyes, Cyclopes apparently too, but with biogger weak spot). I always advise ppl against using Hindsight Slash because of this.

BTW This remids that I was always wanted to make an article about creature armors.
