I maintain the position that we should be allowed to buy/make custom armors that HAVE the little cloth thing. Seriously.

That is the only reason I did not buy custom fullplate with AYANA CAIN.

To me, Fullplate is rare, hard to get and reflects massive wealth/influence. I really like how not everybody can get this (Not easily) rather than in the UNDERDARK where I could get fullplate and full gear for my PC at level 2.

I would also like the options to make cloaks and/or helms, please!

Speaking as the person who set those prices, I agree they're too expensive and will probably reduce them at some point.

That would be rad, yes.

Dash

Custom helms please.

Quote from: Gwydion;1135223.  Crafting armor using the "next and previous" is immensely time-consuming, tedious and generally un-fun.  If we had a screen of dyes to choose from, a list of script, or a color wheel of some type this feature would be a lot more user-friendly.  I realize this is likely low priority, but it's not conducive to anyone using this feature.

We know, however, it will not happen. For practical reasons (those being, we don't want to) we cannot provide a complete list of all available dyes, and were we to display only a select few we'd invariably get complaints because any given colour wasn't listed. It isn't even a matter of providing a handful of bases, because the colour palette isn't very well organized.

Solution: don't design your outfit in game. Design it in the toolset, take screenshots, and recreate it in game.

Please please please don't reduce the cost of full plate... It's a prestigious armour, and 3500 makes certain it stays that way. I'd rather have to work towards getting this for two months than have everyone get it after a few days.

Oskar Maxon

Yes, please keep the price up!

Equinox

Yeah keep it up! fullplate is supposed to be hard to get! tottally not in favour of fullplate being lowered.

halfplate and lower however, maybe. But no way in hell should fulplate be lowered.

Egon the Monkey

[rolls his eyes at the last two posters and their PCs with fancy fullplates panicking at the thought of the plebians getting FP]

On average, PCs have sold fullplate for around 2000-2500 gold. And they have always been DM loot of some sort, with various improvements. However, Fullplate is the only armor that justifies a markup on account of the rarity value. It's not just the power, it's the trouble of tracking down a set.

The others though should be of a price that with an enhancement they are a notable but not unaffordable amount more then PC merchant prices on good armor of that type.

On a related note, please can the enhancements option be added to Seamstress Sally and Hagga and Magga's stores, so we can get custom enhanced suits and leathers.

I find it good with a high price! Making a armor, taking time measuring, crafting the metal after that random elf-half-orc's body and then enchanting the diffrent peices putting them thoughter, alot of work and it takes time.
