Armor at level 40 (Roleplay perspective)

[Promotheus]

<DIV>Hello all</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Once again i will bother you with my questions.</DIV> <DIV>This time, regards the armor at level 40, wich i'll hopefully be soon.</DIV> <DIV>I have so far one imbued ebon armor, the chestpiece, and i will go for the leggings as well.</DIV> <DIV>But are the other armor i can get at level 40, such as the fulginate, about as good as the ebon, or should i get a </DIV> <DIV>full ebon set? </DIV> <DIV><BR>And the roleplay perspective, in case i dont need a full set of ebon, how would i look with the chest and leggins from ebon,</DIV> <DIV>with the rest in fulginate? I want the armor to look much the same, if not im heading for full ebon <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Cheers.</DIV>

There are some good drops lv47+, especially those heavy armor pieces dropping in nektropos castle: the return, looking the same as ebon but if you can afford it or are a lucky harvester i would recommend full ebon as it will make all the diffrence when tanking. Just my 2c of course... <div></div>

<font size="3" face="Franklin Gothic Book, Helvetica, Tahoma"> I would also recommend a full suit of ebon, but if you're struggling with that and still want a full suit of black armour I would recommend looking for Rubicite or Magma forged pieces (Each piece varries in what level you can use it at though). Also, the Vanguard Spaulders of Dismay are great shoulder pieces offering +10 sta, +10 str and decent AC. Grass Lined graves are pretty good leggings too. <P> Stay away from Fulginate and Sootfoot because they are the green ones, which, imo look dreadful... especially when mixed with black armour. (Sootfoot is extremely useful for heat resistances if you raid though.) <P> As a side note, I found it extremely hard to find black gloves. It would certainly be worth you getting ebon gloves as one of your first upgrades (after CP & LP) if you really wan't the full black armour look. </font><p>Message Edited by scl on <span class=date_text>10-18-2005</span> <span class=time_text>11:45 AM</span>

<P>I have to agree here. If you can affort it, get a full ebon armor suit. You will enjoy it and it looks good. (Well, my character is evil so I was really happy to get a black armor when I reached this level!) Mixing black and green armor don't look good, I hate to look like a christmas tree... Magma or Rubicite armor look the same as ebon if you can't affort the ebon. It took me a while to find magma gloves, gloves seems to be rare.</P>
