See i have beenputting together all the best resources i could find for months for my RIS suit...then LIFE called and i had to be at work for the better part of the last month. SO.. now that im back the question is, with the below resouces i have collected should i have my RIS suit made NOW or after CURB??

If it was me, I'd use the stuff in bold and have it made now with some a kinetic layer added. Tell your smith to but as much into protection and condition. Don't drop one point into HAM.

Monroe is right, make sure he gets it to 80% base (pre-slice). That is the only way you will have a chance to get value for your money...

I'm not sure if I agree... its easy enough to hit 80%/80% with 3% janta hides, 3% cubes, and no NS layers at all. Since thats the max, and it comverts to 0 Hinderence post-CU, why use the good stuff?
The 4% hides, sweet cubes, NS layers and such should maybe be saved for post-CU, when they will actually create armor beyond what the current max is.
This is just an idea, though - who knows what the conversion will do and what RIS crafting will be like post-CU.

I picked the highest % because I have no idea what his smith can do with 3% pieces. But you're right I think in that you'd want touse the lowest % loot and till hit 80% and hope for a good conversion on the higher % loot.

Well currently the loot DOESNT covert. Thats the whole problem. So yoru good loot is likely to be turned into scrap. personally I'm playing it on the safe side with all my high end NS layers etc. And I'm going to be using them up now rather than later like I was planning to.

sorry this is comming in abit late, but you may want to go ahead and get this made per-CU as I've heard some talk that Post-CU Ris is not going to be using the Interwoven Segment
