Armorsmith Archive

So what is the deal Armorsmiths. Have you all not gotten a clue yet! Most everyone of you makes nothing but Composite Armor. Why? Most grinding of combat xp is better Done with Ubese Armor. Less hams, and most all vendors that I visit have had the Composite Armor sitting on the selfs for weeks if not months at a time. Those of you who do make Ubese every now and then should know to keep making it its a cash cow. Its sells out so quickly that if you make more, that just that many more people are gonna buy it. Get a Clue already. Yeah composite is good, but only for PVP or running rebel or imp missions. Not for fighting animals. Ask any TKA a good set of ubese armor and 2 brandys and a canape and its a killing spree non stop. No worring about you mind, health, or action, just kill kill kill... So come on and start making more ubese ill buy some of it, Hell I have gone through 5 complete sets in 3 wks and I need more.

Yes, but Im talking about grinding. Really how many people goto the Geo cave to grind for xp. Well not to many because the Geo gave or any cave for that is always so over camped you can sit there for most of a day and max out xp once. Im talking about getting out there and grinding for real. Maxing out the xp once every hr. Im not saying that composite is bad armor. Its very good armor and i own a set. But when im grinding for xp im not using it. Why? Well because as Master TKA / Master Doctor I can stack 2 brandy's and take one canape and get a mind musicians mind buff and just go to town. I can take on most any animal there is in game in multiples without my health, action, or mind budging. Can I do that wearing composite, NO WAY. Not even with encumbrance slices on the Composite. The hams are just way way to much. Yes its good for taking on things that like to shoot at u, but when taking on things with kenitic damage your crazy to use composite when ubese has 1/3 of the hams of composite with the same kenitic protection.

Its also a hassle for people to have to constantly go and look for another set of ubese or just to switch out an old set with a new one. Comp lasts twice as long and is better overall. You could be grinding janta missions on dant but then your guild wants to go hunt NS... Oh darn, wait guys, i have to go to my house and pick up my comp or if you keep it on you, then you're wasting inventory space... And ubese is the ugliest armor ever, even bone armor has a better look to it.

Maybe...just maaaaaaaybe...we know more about what sells and what makes a better profit than you do.

very simple I got both on mass on vendor ubese and composite, 90% of the people buy every time compostie

Okay, I *MIGHT* have been a little harsh, so Ill offer something nice. For starters, composite is actually cheaper than Ubese in the long run, and can be better if you know what to look for. I stock some 80%kinetic 66%base that can be easily sliced under 400HAM. It will end up with about 37k condition, compared to the 19k for Ubese. And dont forget that the Ubese jacket covers too many parts, which you will have to replace constantly.

If you are still having problems with your mind pool, nothing will put a dent in you if you take 2 Brandies and 2 Ahrisas (focus food)...both will last you 40-45mins.

1. we have a clue. when hunting high end mobs the extra protection provided by composite is very much useful.
2. ever hunt npcs. they do more than just kinetic damage. nightsisters are notorious for using multiple types of dmg weapons
3. maybe its not the same suits of composite that you see on the vendor week after week. i used to make a 40 suit run and they'd sell out that same day that its stocked
4. obviously you're not playing tka right or else you could wear a suit of composite and have no ham costs. i'm a tkm/padawan. 2 brandies, 2 ahrisa and watch the mobs fall over with no ham costs with a vk equipped.
5 composite lasts so much longer than ubese.
