Hi, IM in the thunderkeep area, is the armour thats on offer here the best in the game? Who should I buy from? Drok/Grotto/Citidel.

tuperwho · Oct 25, 2005, 03:32 PM // 15:32

The stats are all the same. The question is money and bragging rights. Drok's gets the job done just as well (and is cheapest), the others are just for show.

There is no difference in the stats of the armour

Drok armour will only cost you 1.5k per piece ontop of materials where as citadel and grotto armour will cost 15k per piece on top of materials

Hope this helps

Simon · Oct 25, 2005, 03:36 PM // 15:36

So thats it? Just looks?

I'll shop at Drok then

And this is currently the best armour money can buy?

Savio · Oct 25, 2005, 03:54 PM // 15:54

Yes, that is the best armor you can buy currently. There is no secret uber armor or anything.

Just think of the citadel and grotto armor as being "bling bling" to put on your "thing"

boxterduke · Oct 25, 2005, 04:25 PM // 16:25

Well there is a secret armor that you still can spend your bling on.
It still has the same armor level but with completely different look than all other armors in the game.

I meant secret uber as in with better stats. If I could find an armor with +200 vs everything I'd get it, but alas, it doesn't exist.

Thanks

Where can I get fur sqaures from?

Savio · Oct 25, 2005, 06:37 PM // 18:37

Fur squares? Try expert salvaging any of the various Hides you get, like Dolyak Hides, or if you get 4 Charr Hides you can trade them in for 1 Fur Square from the collector in Ascalon City. Also, you could just buy them from the Rare Materials Trader, but the Trader's usually overpriced.

sorry, nothing along the lines of a "fortitude" runeword here

jeez if I could only find that enigma armor.....

If you can find the collectible items necessary, you can get desert collector's armor for free. Same def rating, just no additional stats. It's not quite as nice, but can tide you over till you get the stuff you want for Droks.

Edit: Dood, Enigma totally r0x0rs. If only it didn't require a million hours of grind or (gasp) real life money to acquire.

Hi Guys

I've just realised the ranger druids armor is +30 vs elemental and all the others are +15 vs (fire/lightning/cold)

My question is, isnt elemental = fire/lightning/cold?

edit: o my mistake, the others has the EXTRA +15. Thanks
