It looks a lot like the old armor except instead of shades of green, it is shades of light blue.

<P>Not only does it look weak but also the stats are crap too. More stamina anyone? </P> <P>Way to miss the boat SOE. </P>

i only have the gloves on my freeport troub alt, but it doesnt look like they got updated at all, under class it still says scout 20 warrior 19 cleric 19 crusader 19.  i cant remember the exact stats, so im not sure if i got bugged or not, but i figure the new stuff would be troubador only <div></div>

holy fxor what a rip off. that gear looks like some of the gear i have on my 60 troub o.0! thats a little ridiculous. i thought that soe was going to put a little more time and effort into it like they did with the SOGA models. which i might add, are really neat.

<P>hello there im now on  aq 6  having started the quest when trade link armour was still offered this new armour is a ruduction on the trade link gear mit has been lowered and so has other stats </P> <P>for example the bracers for trade link give mit of 115 3 str 4 int 12 power 13 health and 100 vs devine 50 vs posion the new bracers give 3 sta 3 agi 18 health 18 power 40 vs cold and mit of 91.  this to me is a reduction of worth by some mesure 91 mit is junk armour i might as well be wearing cloth i had planded on wearing trade link till 32-33 now i will just skip it and buy crafted stuff im gald this is alt and i can afford to buy stuff i pitty the poor noob who has to quest for whats seems like a low reward the over all stats on the armour are okish but the reduction in int stats and str plus mit makes me very unhappy if this armour was ment to be designed for troubs then somone needs to rethink it at the low lvl that im at (25) i need max str and max int for damage sta doesnt help me im not a tank the mit won't take the hits from heroics as tanks don't tend to learn how to tank untill 30 i need more mit im not asking for uber here but painting aq aromur blue and lowering stats is not a good idea.</P> <P>saying all of that the stats will probibly change in a week so /rant off as soe can't make up there minds on quest loot stats </P>

I actually realy like how this armor set looks, but where is the INT? Dont the makers of this game realize that bards need int to increase their dps and power. <div></div>

<DIV>neat idea for soe to do, but its at the wrong time =( the gear is IMO half-a**ed and they really could have made it all a ton more unique. AQ has been worn by lowbies since november '04. The stats have gone in the wrong direction and down. Theres no reason to do aq's anymore than there was in the old day. The gear has become worse and less appealing. blech to the gear design on this.</DIV>
