As for the complaints about giant armor and zerker body armor, take it to the info boards and I'll join that discussion.


::glances around quickly::

We are in the SUGGESTIONS folder, right? Rafe, no one was talking numbers or anything mechanical except how way out of balance giant armor was. I would guess the point to the post was so that you could pad your armor so that it protected as well as giant armor does for oogs and thugs. If this is the case then I would suggest further that Giant armor be unable to be modified. It already protects many % more than any armor of the same material. I did a test with Crusher when giant armor first came on the scene and even with him using a short weapon and me using a two hander crusher did more damage through my heavy steel than I did through his giant steel...both weapons were steel as well. It was about evened out when I threw up the highest Drake wall, but again he was still using a short weapon.

I asked why a Drake can't wear Giant armor since Rydareon is 3.5-4 foot taller than most thugians and oogs, and was told it is a matter of the strength having to be better than Great/Low, while Rydareon has Great/Low strength he cannot have any higher without boosting. As if giving the two hardest hitting races the best armor was something that should be the obvious thing to do. Oh well, I think giant armor has proven to everyone how out of wack it is in this system. Someone needs to get rid of it. Zerk as well.
