<DIV>hey guys i recently hit 40 and im noticing all of my armor is now white again. what is the next step up from emerald hide armor or pristine etched. is there a quest or multiple quests i can to do get ahold of some new armor cause mobs are starting to hurt again.</DIV>

Pristine Tailored Strengthened (Armor) - It goes from 200-250, so levels 40 and 50However, if you don't mind some gear capping a bit early, but have superior status compared to the tradeskilled armor, here are some of them -Orclord armor - Forgot what the set is called or where it drops, it has req of 195 to 220 I think. The armor isn't that bad, and looks a bit better than the Pristine stuff, but can be more expensive.Gown of Woven Grass - Great level 39 armor, has all the essential status and stuff you are looking for. Just looks like crap thought with the Level 20 Studded armor look. Drops from Blightwhip or whatever named in RV.Boots Filled with Mud or Ten Gallon Boots - Both great choice for the level 39+ game and better status than the tailored ones. Starts capping when you can use the Legendary Jboots/Spiderwalk Sandals. Don't have info where it drops though.Augmented Skull Cap (correct me on spelling) - Better status than the Pristine version, just caps a bit early. Don't know where it drops.Pretty sure there is some other ones, but I don't quite remember the names. A lot of gear also begin at 42 and 44, so I won't bother with those.

<DIV>id say grab some crafted then slowly replace them with rare harvested light armor as you move to 50. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>also make sure you get your flowing black silk sash and your legendary journeymans boots at 42.</DIV><p>Message Edited by Taedaen on <span class=date_text>02-20-2005</span> <span class=time_text>01:24 AM</span>

<DIV>found a tailor to make me a set of strengthened for around 50g and then picked up and archaic tunic +7 agi +9 str +30 pwr +30 hp +339 dis +387 mag ac 333 <A href="mailto:400@45" target=_blank>400@45</A> and ten gallon boots from the quest. think im good to go for now just need to find another dual weilder now</DIV>

<DIV>Woah 50g for the non rare stuff?</DIV>

[diamondma]

<DIV>yea thats cheap. think ppl on crushbone think light armor is crack or sumthin. they get u hooked on it at low levels then once you hit 40 they jack the price outta the roof. [Removed for Content] gage i feel sorry for the plate tanks their nonrare crafted armor is sellin for around 20g a piece most of the time. i got it easy.</DIV>

[Inv]

<DIV>Yeah theres alot of Price gouging there..  20-35g for low 40 adepts.... 18g ligh armor crafts... Seen some painful prices hehe.</DIV>

[kerra]

<DIV>I like the gown ..It matches best with the rest of the reg lvl 40 stuff...BTW Gratz on 40!...I have been at lvl 39 for 2 weeks! Bah ...I am a 41 Jeweler..lol for what its worth. </DIV>

<blockquote><hr>Gage-Mikel wrote:<DIV>Woah 50g for the non rare stuff?</DIV><hr></blockquote>Yeah man, on my server the price is ridiculous too. 15g per piece, 60g per piece rare (you provide the rare).That said, none of my gear is crafted, just couldn't afford it. I have blue tunic and green hat, but rest of my armour is good until at least 48 most 50.

[kerra]

<DIV>I would love love those prices...try 2-3 pp per rare w/o the item even crafted yet. </DIV>

[Gaige]

<DIV>I pay 2g per for non-rare and 25g + rare or less for rare stuff.  Heh.</DIV>
