Thread: Improved Chosen/Faithfull Armor

  1. #1

    Improved Chosen/Faithfull Armor

    Ok, Tier 3 Armor is outdated and poor, compared to the other options we have nowadays. And id love to see The chosen/faithfull armor with new life again, either as "Improved/upgraded" Chosen/Faithfull armor, or as a new "Tier 4" set.

    The timing EDIT 1:"Was" perfect. With the new pande content beeing made, add some new drops from the boss/bosses of that new content, either in the form as a new glyph, or any other form of "upgrade" item, which can easily upgrade your Chosen/faithfull armor. My suggestion is "Black Glyph of Aban\Enel\Ocra". Sounds both mysterious and nasty

    The Pros of this:

    -Its PvM friendly. Many people dont do BS for Ofab, cause they are not pvp`ers, or just dont enjoy the BS at all. Other people dont have time to gather enough credits or have the time to farm bots for AI armor such as Combined.
    So it will be a good Armor option for people enjoying the pvm content of the game.
    (edit: yes i Know Ofab is buyable, yet another good reason for a alternative armor set for people who dont want to spend a bunch of creds on gear).

    -It will drop from a content that is coming, which will really ****e up Shadowlands again. not just pande, but the hole SL expansion.
    (Well, since gauntlet didnt implent this up first, maybe It could be added?)

    -Cheaper armor , cred wize. (tho the droprate should be low, to make it unique).
    So you still had to do some raiding for it, or best thing: do some questing for it!

    -New shiney armor (if a hole new Tier set is made), make it look damn awesome for every class!

    -An alternative: This is important. The "hole" set shouldnt be the absolute best, but some pieces should be TOP end game gear, the very best. The set should be a nice Alternative to AI/Ofab. (ty Mireiawen, i forgot to add that this set should be a nice choice to the allready existing armor out there)

    -Server Economics improvement , More end game armor available to the masses, prices on AI armor etc may drop some.

    EDIT 2: Well, Again, server Economics. What Is a piece of Alien armor now, 1b per piece? Insane. Hence one of the reasons for bringing this thread back to life. With a new set of high end gear like Tier 4, which should be cakewalk for the dev-team to implent, Even alien armor might go back or slightly back to a more avrange price again.

    Also: Lore: SL has a beautyfull Lore to It, Its a shame to not take a bit further, get people activated in Inferno again. Make Tier 4 questable?

    Any thoughts?

    ofab is yesdrop and sells for 2m/1k vp...

    but yes, bump for tier 4, my doc needs a new shoulder

    With Ofab and AI armors, having another choice would be nice for all, just to not have them as another must have pieces. Some pieces could be better than existing for some purpose still.

    And I'd hope to see Tier3 and the sets made from it become not Clan/not Omni instead of Omni/Clan reqs, so neuts could benefit from it as well.

    I think that some parts should be "a must have" , but not all. That way Combined/Ofab/Tier 4 would be all good choices!

    I think this is a good idea.. and despite the fact that I have neutral 220 characters I do not think that tier 4 armor (if created) should be opened to neutrals. In my opinion, tier 3 was one of the cool perks of being sided and should remain that way. There should also be a high faction requirement (even though it is easy to get these days) for equipping.

    Tier armor is retarded to get, and stat wise just as retarded. I'd love to see better tier 3/4 armor. And make a few glyphs that can change the color of it, I hate the purple and orange enfos armor, but if that same armor was all black or red I would have definitely farmed harder for it, and it shouldn't be too hard to simply make an item that combines and changes color. Also make it able to color colored armor, just the ability to change the looks of it after you've changed it incase you don't like it or just want a change.

    Well i dont think Tier parts are retarded to get. If you listen to the Jobe scientist explaning how its created, it feels somewhat okay that the parts drops from the places they do (catacombs - Pande).

    I kinda feel that farming in the catacombs is one of the funnier places to farm (well, not funny, but atleast exciting) . Droprates are ok (or was ok, when the Tier Armor was End game). And it makes sense that it is in the very deaphs of the combs you get your drops! Mean blobby ugly as hell creatures that pack a punch, and a nasty run to even get there)

    When tossing Tier 4 drops on a new boss in Pande to top it all of, you get a complete Shadowlands experience imo

    I like the change color glyph idea painolympics maybe a "Multicolored Glyph of Aban/Enel/Ocra"?
    Should drop from another place in Shadowlands tho, like the jokers glyph etc.

    If this were to happen I would like to see full set bonuses... so if you wore a full set you would get a extra bonus. Or maybe a partial set bonus. Would be a nice addition.

  13. #13
    first make them "neutral" wearable ^_=

    since no one is using them that's sided
    "Don't think...feel, it's like a finger pointing towards the moon"

  14. #14
    A bonus system would be really nice. Bonuses on 3 pieces ,5 pieces and full set perhaps.

    Also, they should be neutral wearable ofcourse. Call it diplomatic armor. Chosen/Diplomatic/Faithfull he he

    Since you're just wanting it for PvE go for DB armour. There's no need for T4. Development seems behind schedule as is, don't try to add another year to it for armour most won't use.

    FC have plans for the Tier armor.

    And why wouldnt most use a improved Tier 3 / Tier 4? Its new, and better? Cant say i see the logic in what your saying.

    pls read OP b4 responding. New yes, better not all. FC has had a lot of plans over the last 10y, that doesn't mean it will be implemented.

    Great idea, and bump for this.

    My thoughts are to have some pieces be Tier 3.5 (your version of improved), AND some much revamped pieces of Tier 4.

    What do I mean? Look at (doctor Tier3/Ofab):

    *The Doctor GOOD pieces = Shoulder pad (HP, BM), Gloves (pistol, HP, sense), SE Helmet - <<<cause Ofab helmet blows>>> (HP, add cost, nanoc init.) - SE Helmet is a perfect example of what Tier 4 SHOULD be

    *The Doctor BAD pieces = Chest (NO HP), Boots (evades, LOL), pants (CL, fling, ncu FTL), sleeves (T&S, Dodge Range)

    Why would I propose: Chest gets HP, boots lose evades, pick up AAD, nano delta, pants get Max nano/burst - lose fling, and sleeves get pistol, lose dodge range.

    Also backpiece needs 600-700 HP, as Reanimated Cloaks are still near the top.
