Curse

I was really glad to hear that a majority of the warrior armors were going up to 90 armor.

Update Notes:

Warrior:

* Knight's armor: now provides +20 armor vs. physical damage (instead of +10).
* Knight's Helm: fixed so that it now provides +1 to Strength.
* Dragon armor: now provides 90 base armor +10 armor vs. physical damage.
* Platemail armor: same as Dragon.

Here's the issue. My armor stayed at 85 and has not changed.

Replied:
Yes, this is the 15k Dragon armor I purchased long before the recent update that featured this change.

Will there be a patch soon to fix this bug/error? Would seem quite outrageous to have to spend another 75k to get the new proper amount.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

And that's it so far. Does that seem right or fair to anyone else?

I think it is bull crap. :edited

"shit" is allowed on public television.
Also the ability for them to update the armor is possible just look at what they did to the double enchanted mods axe..

Gah another cusser, filter your words.

How do people always conveniently miss out the important parts. Go back and read the update notes!

"There will be, in the near future, a way to upgrade existing level 20 armours for free."

You missed this part of the update notes. Your armor will get upgraded (for free even). Don't panic.

Even with that, why should we have to wait?

Why shouldn't you have to wait?

Why whine about it? I bet you're probably going to be buying a new type of Cantha armor anyway.
