Thread: Hey, what happened to Ris armour?
What you have to understand is that the people saying go with Comp are PVP.
RIS is pretty much the best PVE armor, given that you are able to make a good set, and the low encum allows you to regen quicker, thus allowing more spamming of specials, especially against the higher HAM opponents.
RIS actually was supposed to have no weaknesses, but given the devs couldn't figure out what was they exact cause of the stat shift, they fixed it higher up by giving it an acid and stun weakness (Yes, I know they said they intended that all along, and they lie, because they said the opposite when RIS was introduced).
Anyway, I am working on RIS myself, but I know it will be a while. Because I am building my RIS to go, not for show.
Anyone try adding 3 acid layers to RIS? Anyone have any results of that?
