does anyone know which armour types have belts and of these which have sockets that you can place armour attachments on.


also do armour gloveshave sockets.


reason i'm asking is i've got a couple of nice AAs which I want to put on my armour but i'm too po' to afford an ADK with the prices they're going for now, which i'd probably need if i put them say on the chest piece


am i right in thinking belts boots and gloves don't actually give protection or at least only form a small part of your overall protection so if they get down to 1/1 condition it wont matter much. i can stilll wear them with the AA attached unlike if I'd put them on say the chest which would be useless when its condition gets to 0.


any ideas you have on which piece of armour to use for putting AAs on would be much appreciated.


thanks

Only pre CU armor belts and gloves/boots have sockets. Many still exist, try galaxy vendor search or the bazaar. You can refit boots and gloves to the armor class of your choice, battle: padded/bone, assault Comp/chitin etc. Items will come out with default colours and 3 sockets.


Since only pre CU boots/gloves and belts have sockets they don't tend to sell cheaply although bargains are still available on bazaar.

Post CU armor gloves belts and boots do not have sockets. This is a balance issue I do beleave for the races that cant wear boots or gloves. The only way you are going to be able to put the AA's into boots, gloves or belt is for them to be pre CU.

Thanks for the replies guys


i happen to have an old set of pre CU non converted compo armour at home as a display (it was the first set i ever bought and i kept it for sentimental purposes) i'll have to try and convert the gloves and boots.


if an AA does 3 things eg carbine defence, rifle accuracy, melee speed does that mean it uses up 3 sockets and one with 2 things on it uses 2 sockets, or does the whole AA just use 1 socket?

Each mod takes a socket. Also if you have one socket left and you try to place an attachment, only the highest valued mod will stick. If 2 mods are equal, then the top mod will stick.
