Might be a nice way for those of us with a bunch of runes wasting away in our bags to finally use something. Plus, wouldn't it make sense that dragon armor could be augmented using special dragon runes? Might be a nice compromise to having a blue and colorless slot on them would be to allow them all a variety of DT Rune slots as well. Might be a nice way of making these the "must have" armors in the game.

Dragonscale armor is already the must have armor for 12 -20.

Something else that might be nice is you running reavers refuge and paying the 50 draconic runes for the Armor instead of recommending they make it so you can add runes you already have to armor you already have.

Was this a serious post? Wow.

I prefer DT, but can't be worn until level 16. I like having 2 guards slotted on my armor, but its all player preference. I think OP has a good idea and think it warrants at least a discussion.

Or just turn em into unique augs. They already (kinda) work that way anyway, just in a self-contained crafting system, rather than an integrated one.

How is adding custom, modular bonuses, originally designed for blank armor, to dragonscale which is already modded with static bonuses a "good idea"?

And I guess we should just delete the entire reavers refuge pack from the game. Right?

Here is an even better idea. Make dragonscale armor ML:1 so you can put it on at level one and REALLY make it "THE MUST HAVE" armor.

No...No.. I want all AA imbues scrolled so I can imbue 13 d6 damage modifiers (all at once) on my maelstrom greataxe.

This is officially the worst idea I think I have ever seen on any mmo suggestion board.. ever.

OMG best idea EVAR... I want a button that I can click that applies 3x every past life to my toons, auto equips outrageously uber Inventory and pops up a frigging message that says "you won the game".


OH EM GEE, wouldn't that be.... awesome????

people aren't playing RR for anything other than xp and favor. the grind for DT armor is all but dead with armor that is considered better elsewhere with an easier grind to acquire. there have been lots of people trying to make suggestions how to make DT runes and the armor something worth grinding for and I see OPs suggestion as another one of those suggestions. instead of being rude about the OPs suggestion you could have made a counter suggestion or simply /not signed.

it is possible to re-design code or add blank armor to craft using scales or better yet, update DT armor so it would be worth grinding for again. I doubt re-designing code for DT runes would be something even worth considering by the devs, just saying its an option.

He, then you made a suggestion to make an already lower ML armor more OP and phase out the higher level gear alltogether.

Meh, why bother with an armor upgrade between 12 and 20 right? After all its only a 3 day grind.. who would ever want to enjoy variety and change during the leveling process?


Want a (here is new word) "reasonable"... fix? I posted a realistic suggestion related to DT armor that resides like 8-10 threads down from this one.

Weird, there's a page 2?

You know, I gave serious thought to getting DT armor a while back. Then I compared the stats on the base armor to the stats of Spiritcraft/Mountain/Quoriforged armor blanks. That made me walk away. Lower AC, lower max dex, across the board.

Why would that matter? Lower max dex = lower dodge cap. No. NoNoNoNoNo. And the lower AC? The only time the max dex issue doesn't matter is for Full Plate wearers. In which case, the AC matters.

At the very least, the base armors need to be updated to the base stats of equivalent ML16 lootgen types. Or better.
