Strengthened and augmented

[Wiou]

Both have same look? <div></div>

[Mystiq]

No they look very different. Augmented, which is made from the rare pelts, has the blue and brown detailed, embroidered look. Strengthened has a brown/beige studded leather look. It's pretty lackluster and resembles a lot of other lower level sets.

Dropped augmented, as well as a lot of other t5 dropped DOES look like the ugly, gross, blue/brass curtain looking t5 rare stuff though.

[Khuds]

Orclord and Behemoth hide is very pretty however. I think the tunic models are the same as the Augmented, just not the colors. <div></div>

Try to do the Robe Of The Invoker quest. That way you don't have to worry about how your other armor looks :smileywink:

<P>Yeah I love my robe.</P> <P>I got some new stuff tonight, mostly looks black though.  I need to bp/bracers to finish the look.</P> <P>I also finally got my main 3 stats over 100.  w00t!</P>

What's the name of the "looks mostly black" stuffs?

Hmm.  I really dislike the look of the armor in the other thread, and really like the T5 rare stuff.  Oh well <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div>

i'm told that the power regen on robe of invoker is non-combat only now

[Khuds]

ARG Confirm anybody? <div></div>

[Wiou]

Ooh, boy. That would be a [Removed for Content]. <div></div>

[Khuds]

The Behemoth armor has the same model as the augmented yet is black with greyish/white details. However, I've yet to see anything more than a tunic for that set. <div></div>

I very much dislike the augmented and strengthened look. I hope the other set looks much better. The augmented looks (I cant think of a good word to describe) umm [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot]. The strengthened makes you look like a newb.

[RadricTyc]

I don't really mind the look of augmented, the only issue I have is that the JBoots look crappy with it.  Besides, the devs (Moorgard?) already stated that new armor models were on the way for monks.  Here's to hoping some new artwork makes it into this next patch when they add enchantments.
