Armorsmith Archive

I'm not an armorsmith but i've grown weary of my playing style and i'm looking for a new goal. I've decided to try and get ahold of a suit of RIS armor! I think I have a working list of components I need to make the base RIS armor with no extras:

-==Quest==-
2 Reclusive Gurk King Hide
2 Woolamander Harrower Bone Fragment
1 Giant Dune Kimogila Scale
1 Peko Peko Albatross Feather

-==RIS Segment (9 total, already multiplied)==-
1440 Titanium Aluminum
1440 Chanlon Intrusive Ore
675 Rori Fiberplast
18 Layers (Use nightsister layers or shards insead of RIS layers)
9 Woolamander Harrower Bone Fragment
9 Reclusive Gurk King Hide

-==RIS Peices (9 total, already multiplied)==-
675 Known Solid Petrochemical Fuel
585 Talusian Fiberplast
450 Chromium Aluminum
450 Vedusii Crystal Amorphous Gemstone
360 Platinite Copper
270 Rori Wooly Hide
9 Synthetic Cloth
9 RIS Segment (or Interwoven RIS Segment)
9 Giant Dune Kimogila Scale

-==Total Resources (including quest)==-
1440 Titanium Aluminum
1440 Chanlon Intrusive Ore
675 Rori Fiberplast
675 Known Solid Petrochemical Fuel
585 Talusian Fiberplast
450 Chromium Aluminum
450 Vedusii Crystal Amorphous Gemstone
360 Platinite Copper
270 Rori Wooly Hide
18 Layers (Use nightsister layers or shards insead of RIS layers)
11 Woolamander Harrower Bone Fragment
11 Reclusive Gurk King Hide
9 Synthetic Cloth
9 RIS Segment (or Interwoven RIS Segment)
10 Giant Dune Kimogila Scale
1 Peko Peko Albatross Feather

And I am about to start looking for these components. Right now I have a pathetic 3 bone fragments, and I need a lot more components I know Is this list accurate? I was under the impression one feather was needed for the quest as well. I don't have an armorsmith picked out but there are a few 10 pointers in my guild who im sure would be more than willing and trustworthy. I most likely can't afford to get one of the major smiths to work with me, and probably don't know if I can even trust them (trust is a big issue on my server!) The alternative would be going armorsmith with my alt, although I don't think I have time for that in addition to hunting for RIS components. My idea is that the stats of the armor don't matter, i'm just trying to complete one of the hardest goals in the game.

Thoughts? I'm currently collecting bounty hunter armor (annoying but much easier) but i'll need to make a decision whether or not to persue this soon.

Added the scale and feather Aside from the GDK scales, it doesn't look that bad. And my main can kill GDK's all day long if I he can find them.

Exactly!!! Didn't loot my GDK scale until kill number 47. I hope you have better luck.

You'll need a peko peko albatross feather and a GDK scale for the quest as well.

Heh if trust is an issue I can send a few testimonials your way

Wait, explain the quest, because I have one GDK scale on my scylla armorsmith and I just have to turn in my segment or layer for my next schematic.

I thought I would need a GDK scale for every piece of the suit during the quest, then an additional 9 for a full suit to keep.

Any help?

Heh, you'll soon find out why there aren't a lot of RIS pieces around.

Oh I know, i've killed over a hundred and only looted 2, both of which I sold

Argh.. so if i just wanted to make a helmet what would I need in total?
