A heavy sword could cut through light armor if it was skillfully used. Glancing blows, light swords, or heavy armor made the sword fairly useless.
Usually between 60 and 110 pounds, sometimes as low as 40. The armor used by nobility for jousting was much thicker and heavier because a) they wanted the best protection possible to avoid accidents and b) they didn't have to deal with the inconvenience that using a suit like that in actual combat.
You can sneak in heavy armour too. The Heavy Chitin set weighs about the same as a Steel set, but offers more protection. You could imagine it's still handy for an assassin.
Suits of armor were primarily used from the medieval period, around the 14th to 16th centuries, until the early 17th century. They provided protection for knights and soldiers in battle before the development of firearms made armor less effective.
Both samurais and knights used swords as their primary weapon, such as the katana for samurais and the longsword for knights. They also both used armor for protection in battle, with samurais wearing elaborate armor made of lacquered plates and knights wearing suits of armor made of metal. Additionally, both warriors used bows and arrows in combat.

Knights used the mace as a close combat weapon to deliver powerful blows on their opponents, especially those wearing heavy armor. Its design, with a heavy spiked head, was effective for crushing armor and inflicting damage even if the opponent was wearing protective gear. The mace was particularly useful in battles where slashing or piercing weapons were less effective against armored opponents.
Some cuirasses were made of several layers of leather. The chain mail armor, the "lorica hamatata" was made of iron rings and the segmented armor, the "lorica segmentata" was also made of iron. Copper was unlikely to be used for combat as it was too soft. Iron was the preferred metal.
Armor is a protective covering worn to prevent injury in combat or hazardous situations. It can be made from various materials such as metal, leather, or advanced composites, and is designed to absorb or deflect impacts and projectiles. Armor has been used throughout history by soldiers, knights, and modern military personnel for protection in battle.
No. Titanium costs approximately 10 times more than steel and titanium is only lighter that steel. You actually will need more titanium than steel for armor (strength to size issue). Tanks don't have problem with heavy armor so weight is not an issue for them.
