Armorsmith Archive

Hi all.

I recently mastered, and have been diligently collecting good resources and staving off the "Can you make me...." requests at starports. Bloodfin is currently missing Kiirium and Colat. I haven't got the cash to buy any at anyhtingmore than grind price.

So, my question is, how do basic segments stack up next to their advanced counterparts? I did some limited testing with Bone/Advanced Bone and found the only thing that changed was the resists. 1% Base/3% Energy for the normal bone (before experimentation) and 3/5 for Advanced. I am aware, however, that this may not be a good sample, as normal bone segments use Artisan skills to make.

How do the rest of the armors look like in this light? Is it ever worth making generic segments, or not?

I'm mostly trying to make armors with modest resists, but as low a HAM cost as possible for my guildmates.

Thanks for any info guys/gals.
