This is the sex screen for Savannah. the go down is for cunnilingus, as I am sure you are aware of.
As for the armor, from what I played from the original game when you have the Journeyman armor, the leather cap, and the more expensive shield, you would usually not take any damage from any non-boss opponents from the first town, but I was taking on average 170 damage from the 2 higher end mob enemies from the map. I also don't even know how to equip it unless it is auto equipped because I am unable to equip it from the inventory screen nor the equip screen.
