See i knew I could count on you to do the further maths.

OKay you say SoR doesn't have many compared to other MMOs. No it doesn't. But it doesn't need it either. We have 3 types of armour with 3 qualities each. It's what fits the game.

I agree that it would be nice to have some "just clothes" pieces, but I don't think we need more types of armour. Some new designs maybe, new types, not at all.

Well thats your opinion and youre welcome to it

I agree with the original poster , there are infact only 3 types of Armour for each of the 4 races , thats 12 Craftable in my book not 4608 ,id like more

Bah! speaking from experience with an old MMORPG -

there used to be er.. 5 different types of 'heavy armor' and you only used the highest type u could wear (unless u were me and liked to look really cool with a mixed set ) - then there was a mage outfit, and about 4 different ranger outfits.

we all thought 'hmm some new armor would be nice' (crafting these armors was a PAIN) - so the devs there decided to add some new pieces obtainable only from merchants/quests - and even some craftable ones.

about a year later - i came back to the game to say hi to a few old friends - and saw ppl running around in a myriad amount of armors i was SHOCKED - there were WAY too many. i tried playing a bit then found that my old set was 'outdated' and no one used 'armor 5' anymore - it was all about the new quest armor from so and so quest - and the weapon from such and such merchant obtainable only after this or that quest.

i was disgusted - WAY too many different armors for me, and there was a SERIOUS problem in armors bieng very much better than the others. (not to mention outrageous prices... to put in Ryzom terms - a set of 'armor5' would cost about 1million dapper, and a set of 'armor6' would cost about 30 million dapper)

the way armors are made now is GREAT - i love having only 9 parts for each race - it makes each race unique and easy to take care of. and it helps me from having to go "ok, what was that armor called again? no no, the red one"

wow long post.. all i meant to say was 'i like having this many armors'

What id like is to have a differnt look without sacrificing the Stats (be able to craft more than one set using the same mats and getting the same stats) ,id also like some from Rites with the different Tribe's especialy the Primitives -to go with my "Ugly" generic Axe/Bowrifle/Buckler GoGoGo Ugly

I dont like Uber items but it would be nice to get some more variation/individuality -more like Hair styles/Tattoes than Uber loot

Edit- oh and be able to select / dye the colour whilst Crafting or maybe post Craft from an NPC or Armour Crafter who had the Dying Skill

We have seen other armor from testing or hack on other websites, so we know they are out there... I also wonder why we pretty much have the same clothes as we started with. Having to take a degrade on your armor to have certain colors never made any sense to me.

thanks for the help
I guess thats good enough
I dont want a dress up game its just that i like to look different
I liked the idea about having new "just clothes"
With no stats just to look cool
