Armor for 30+

Mum · 12-18-2004, 05:10 AM

Hey guys currently a 32 bruiser here and im having some trouble finding some good armor, seems the only drops I see are verylight or med / heavy. Is anyone else noticing a lack of light armor drops and quest? The only decent pieces I have found are the hatred quest deep in Runnyeye. Of course there is crafted light, but its not that readily avaiable on my server i guess, well if anyone has any advice on where to find some im all ears!-Tamaran 32 Iksar Bruiser / 12 scholar- AB - PL

Get the chest and legs in RE and also there is engraved leather which is mostly level 34 light armour i believe. Engraved leather drops off named randomly in RE.

yah got the chest piece from there and am almost done with the legs, but I'm also asking has anyone else noticed a BIG difference in the drop rates of light armor compard to the other types, the market is flooded with very light, med, and heavy, but hardly ANY light, seems very strange... but there HAS to be other light armor quest out there for the upper lvls, I mean I have had no problems obtaing good gear up till now

Light Armor drop rates should (and are) smaller than other armor. Why?

Very Light Armor: All Mage Classes = 6 Classes

Light Armor: Brawler and Druid = 4 Classes

Medium Armor: All Scout and Shaman = 8 Classes

Heavy Armor: Clerics, Warroirs and Crusaders = 6 Classes

What annoys me about light armor.... most groups I've joined so far agree that 'need' before greed is a good way to play, even on standard drops. However I saw a nice light armor bracer drop which was a good upgrade over the 'Armor quests', and the groups cleric said.. I can wear light armor, and its an upgrade for me.

While that may be true, I know for a fact his plate armor was already better, and the light armor went straight onto his trader. Its the same for very light, A really nice robe dropped, and a shaman in the group decided he would wear it for looks.

With attitudes like that the above list is wrong..

Very Light Armor: All Mage Classes = 6 Classes + 4, + 8, + 8, Total 26.

Light Armor: Brawler and Druid = 4 Classes +8+8 = 20

Medium Armor: All Scout and Shaman = 8 Classes +8 =16

Heavy Armor: Clerics, Warroirs and Crusaders = 6 Classes

Yeah that's BS IMO. Just because a Heavy class can wear Light doesn't mean they should. Preference should have gone to the Light wearer first.

If Light armor drops on a mob , but u cant use it for another 2-4 lvl's are u still entilted to it in NBG scheme of things?. I know i lost a roll on some beutiful arms today and wasnt even asked if i needed it. I sent PM to winner of lotto and he wanted 5 gold for it. gave him 2.

I just try to group with guildmates and friends so there is not arguement on who should get what. But yeah, it is kinda messed up when people get greedy.

btw, Woven Engraved tunic (lv39cap) dropped for me today on a NM skelly in RoV Cellar today.

That's why you tell him "need!!" before greed.and then tell your guild and friends not to group that guy again.
