Updating vendor trash just seems like a waste of time, imo. Certain tier armours might pull ahead of the pack, but there is still a large bulk portion of it that was very much not worth the effort of farming, other than bragging rights. I've heard hints and omens concerning (in addition to the regular professional toolset rebalance) an item and equipment rebalance. Can you offer any sort of insight into that, that is useful to everyone?
    All we've said before, and all I'll say now, is that itemization *will* be a part of the rebalancing. You can take whatever you want from that statement and from some of the armour sets shown. Even *without* any statistical upgrades, however, the wealth of unique armour sets in Anarchy means that, in combination with the social tab, even if a set isn't directly desirable in terms of stat benefits, players can use the newly "shinyfied" armours to help achieve a unique visual look for their character.

    I won't sit here and say that, even after the itemization portion of the rebalancing, every single armour set we have will be what people consider "good" for their character. But with the new textures that sezmra is graciously providing for us, we can offer people better looks for their characters by breathing some new visual life into some of the older, more iconic sets. =)

    This probably isn't the best time to mention that while you cats are all freezing your tails off I'm in sunny Southern California where it's been upper 70's F and occasionally even 80 F here. Only drawback is the thick mutagen-laden haze of smog that coats everything around in a fine layer of death dust.

    Wow, I really really love the new armor textures. Secundus looks so amazingly sexy and it was a great job changing the omni tier armor to blue rather than purple :P

    Those new armor textures are beautiful... but that great artist should be working on what people with taste wear... I mean:
    - the E-peen t-shirt
    - the red xmas boxers (though the halloween boxers look classy too)
    - the white shoes and socks
    - the red sleeves from beast
    - the candy bars backpack

    You cannot leave the tasteful elite behind!!
    There are no problem that an absence of solution could'nt solve

    Hey, can't have it all. I moved here and watched forest fires cook about half surrounding area around me, I took a picture that looks like someone set off a nuclear blast a few miles away from my position when I took the picture, mushroom cloud and all.

    The sharper textures look great. The enforcer tier is a vast improvement on what it was (especially the pants that were always so low res), though it would of been nice if the design on the chest and back extended to cover pelvic area on front and tapered off to a spinal cord shape on back.

    *jedi mind trick* You want to retexture the tinfoil hat and dustbrigade trooper armor.

    so after nano docs are all done, there will be gear documentation as well? or will that go quicker?

    I'm fully aware that I will get flamed for saying this next bit by a fanboi or two, but how long will the rebalance get stretched out for? most players are settled with the idea that the new engine wont likely hit live servers this year, but many still care about rebalance, and the thought of rebalance still being in the works months from now is a coffin in the nail for many players, and possibly more that im not aware of.

    I used to listen to Dubstep in the 90's... every time I connected to the internet.

    The armors look great.

    Can't wait for the advie nano doc. I can nearlly already hear the whines, one way or another (though given what we know of perks so far, nano would need some really hard nerfing to even come close to satisfy the advie haters crowd...)

    Don't go out naked Kintaii!
