Armorsmith Archive

I have been requesting the information you are asking about but as of yet it hasn't been released to me. That's not too surprising, seeing as they only announced it last week.

With regard to Wookie-only craftable, that's something else that's still unknown. However, I have noticed that the vast majority of armorsmiths on this forum are more in support of a all-armorcrafter craftable armor, similiar to the way wookie clothing is done, rather than a wookie-only craftable armor. As a result, until I hear more than one or two voicesto the contrary, that's the position I'm going to support.

Sure, make wookie armor only craftable by wookies. But to make it fair, remove their ability to make composite. They can't wear it, why make it?

It's all about balance. Wookies want it all.

If wookies want to pay a fortune for their (probably crap) armor due to there only being a handful of wookie armorsmiths on their server I DON'T CARE. All it means is that I can focus on making Ubese and Composite without having to deal with the whiny balls of fur and teen angst. I honestly don't care either way, it would almost be worth not learning a new armor to see the tears when wookies are charged 500k for basicallyUbese quality armor.

Think about it, the price will be inflated anyway due to a decreased market size. And you guys want it to only be craftable by wookies? They could charge whatever they want as demand would far outweigh supply.

If it is craftable by everyone I predict that every AS will make a few suits out of interest and for friends, then will go back to focussing on comp, with a small percentage doing regular runs of it. If it's only craftable by wookies, it's the only armor they will ever get the chance to craft due to the constant demand. Have fun with that.

I have seen the light about the wookiee armor being craftable by all smiths... Makes it common place then...

But they will have a harder time crafting to fit our HAMs than they do for the other races that get the normal armors... Where as a wookiee Smith can say this is my Racial Maximum and this is what I can do with my Stats in this game...

As a Wookiee Armorsmith I have a goal to make sure each full suit is wearable right of the box....

Granted this is a Nich maket... But I almost think that the Mastersmiths who have been around for months probablly will not gear up all that fast just to fill orders for less than 1/3 of the population... Sure they might make a few suits depending on the resouces they use... But I doubt that they will use it to replace their Markets of Composite or Ubese... But they are currently making a bunch of money off of people just from those two armor sales...

But as a Wookiee and an Younger Armorsmith I am seeing the wookiees as my target audiance.. I plan the day it goes live to get a vendor up labled Wookiee Armor and if I end up no longer making composite then thats fine with me.. no need to fuss to much with it..

But I will not give up my ability to make composite like the Person above me is saying... With a post count and a registration date as low as that I would not be making comments like the ones you have... Nice way to start yourself off in the fourms...

I was making a point dude, that most of the arguments for wookie-only crafting were poorly thought out and based on greed. Tell me, how many non-wookie smiths supported the idea?

I am seriously amazed at your postcount comments though. What, my opinion doesn't count? Because I have a low postcount I don't know what I'm talking about? Funny how the "vet" now agrees with the "newb" in relation to wookie-only crafting.

My postcount says nothing about me. Your thinking that postcounts matter however, speaks volumes.

FYI, I was around during beta 3, left, and have come back for a go before the SE hits. I have maintained a constant eye on how the game has been going in my absence.You make too many assumptions.

I see both sides of the issue.

I think that the idea of wookiees only crafting wookiee-only armor makes sense, in the fact that wookiee armor would seem to me more of a traditional armor, passed down through families and such. I know this is a horrible parallel, but its like asking thepilgrims to make annative american'straditional uniform.

I'm hoping this Wookiee armor is only gonna be wookiee craftable like the bow caster. Any info as far as stats/Materials/Craftable by who? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance,,GOOSEBOROK

I am wookie armorsmith, have been making armor since day 1. I have learned that price gouginghurts you in the long run. So depending on resources, I don't see it costing any more than composite.
