Armorsmith Archive

When you take it apart, you get a ris segement (which is the crafted piece that now contains the three loots). This segement is now the only thing that differentiates RIS from other battle type armors during crafting. You are still limited by the same resist caps as other battle armor (6000 across the board unlayered), but RIS does craft with a substantially higher condition now. I have made a few pieces post CU and they are popping out with 110kish condition. My old RIS resources were all picked for OQ/SR, though. So, I'd wager that can be pushed even higher with high oq/sr/dr resources.

As far as your adks go, I have no idea. The traditional way to reclaim one is to destroy the item. This will prevent you from getting your ris segment, though :/ With RIS component prices plummetting (at least on ahazi they are), I'd say that it would be better to reclaim the adk rather than get the segment if you have to make a choice. Perhaps you could file a ticket about the issue?

3. What if any resources will be needed by the AS to make the best possible RIS with the resulting segments? LOOK for the battle armor resouces, also bring him stacks of enhancers that have bonus to health, and postCU looted peko peko feathers

Thanks for your help.

A question to you who have some contact with the devs etc: As Blair wrote in his blog, great items(such as RIS or really good Composite) before CU should be great after the CU, but why is it all crap after the CU?
Or is this just a lie they pulled on us?

I have a set of pre-CURB RIS armor. 5 pieces of it are ADK'ed (helm, chest, pants, boots, gloves), all pieces sockets are filled with AA (these I'm not as worried about they can be replaced). However it converted rather crappy IMO to what it was preCURB. The stats are about 40k-45k ham, with 5160 resists. I've heard RIS can get upwards of 7k resists if broken down and remade. Now, my questions...

1. If I break this down will the 5 ADK'ed pieces return my ADK's?

2. If I break this down will I need to get 9 new GDK scales, woolamander bones, and gurk king hides?

3. What if any resources will be needed by the AS to make the best possible RIS with the resulting segments?
