+20 peko feathers are going for a million plus on Scylla. I don't think they're worth that much.

Perhaps people will lower their expectations, although I doubt it. Enhancers in stacks of 13 are pretty easy to come by and much easier to use although they may be limited to +7 or similar. Three stacks like that and +13 feathers would give you a +238 suit without as much effort on the crafter's part.

Now is +238 worth anything?

That's a good question. +350 to health isn't all THAT much. It's mostly to have the best of the best. The price for a +238 suit will probably be drastically lower than the max suit. /shrug. I'm planning on pumping some out soon like that just to see.

okay..armor enhancement of +350 health is fairly easy to attain right now with all the pre-cu stuff. but what about when it runs out. i know peko feathers go up to about +24 (i think) and the acklay enhancer is nice aswell. but i haven't seen an acklay drop more then 2 of these puppies. and it seems like all the other drops are going to be capped at around +9 or +10 incase of the kimo things.


so what do you think, when +350 gets harder and harder to make, do you think the price is going to keep going up and up. should we save our pre-cu stuff for later when it is very hard to make?


like i said. just a thought. let me know your opinion!

On my server the pre-cu stuff is already very depleted and the price of the +350 suits is outrageous. Combine that with the fact that alot of people are beginning to think it's not worth the cost and hastle, they aren't going for it anymore. I agree with you though...down the road, +350 suits will become increasingly difficult and cost a pretty penny .

i've been killing the acklay at least once a day and 2 is the most and all they sem to drop.... you just have to charge a worthwhile amount for the armor that you put these into. Supply and demand...

350 health is an additional +10% health for a cl80 character. Add in a doc buff (works as a precentage of current health) after equiping the suit and you get even more. Folks who PvP will pay alot for an edge and a 10% health increase is a pretty good edge.


My armorsmith is cl54, that 350 health from her ris suit makes an even bigger diference on her 2k ham.


A part of me is hoping we get some core enhancers to make it easier to hit 350 when the pre CU stuff runs out, another part of me thinks this will possibly ruin the raity of capped health enhanced stuff

Good point, wittynewt. So do you think there's a market for say, a +248 suit, or is the +350 or bust scenario?

I was under the impression that the doc buffs did not take into account the health bonus from the armor. True or no?

Now that I don't know. I might be about to find out though, had a crafting nightmare on a big BH armor craft the other night and forgot to add the feathered enhancers on the final combine on 3 pieces so I have ended up withone of the suits as+290. Was going to do an auction at a lowish min and see where it goes.


As to the doc buffs notusing thearmor customers, well I must say I actually haven't tried it recently, It certainly used to work before they broke enhancers and a couple of customers have mentioned it to me as a reason they really wanted me to craft them a suit I will get a doc buff in mos eisley tonight with my ris on and let you know

I've so done that. More than once. More than twice, even.
