As is well known the change to armor that came with the CU required the removal of bone armor from the engineering line of artisan. Oddly that line still grants armor customization bonus.


My suggestion is to allow artisans to make fake armor, the armor that acts like clothing (durability 100) and offers no protection, the armor that is often awarded as quest rewards. Oddly these quests invariably require a combat toon tocompleteand no combat toon other than Tera Kasi is going to want fake armor.


Artisans would be able to create and customize this 'costume' armor so that crafters and entertainers (and tera kasi) can dress up to their hearts content.

As both as Master Armorsmith and Master Artisan I would like this to be added. However I don't think Tailors might like it as you're taking a new submarket of clothing away from them and giving it to more basic profession.

I am a tailor and I don't mind.

I happen to be a Master AS / Master Tailor / Master Artisan.


I'd say...

For the armor, as long as the armor is very basic, I am fine with it. Maybe add a new type of (basic) armor that every profession is certed for (so Novice Brawler or Marksman could use them.. and even pure level 1 crafters like me!)


For the clothing, tailor is all about color. The Domestic Arts tree already has clothing in them... just that their color palettes don't have much variety.

That would be great. They could let artisans make it a basic armor that anyone could wear, no matter what the profession. There could be a low cap on the protection if they didn't want it to compete with other armor, but it would give pure crafters/entertainers a better chance of survival in the wild.

I have been wanting this since they got rid of non elite armor wearing. I would also like to see it not use armor cores at all, make it just resourse oriented.
