Well, as most know now, there's a new slicing system in town . When TC is up, please log on and help test! You can learn more and give your feedback here.

I've managed to test out the new system, but only got to run through the armour slicing before the server came down, although I did make a mad dash for a weapons vendor and make some screenshots of each slicing option's details for a VK.

If you've any questions after reading the post linked above, or what's below, check out TC Changes Q&A thread by Ragnaat.

Armour

Enhance Resilience:

Normally armour begins to suffer from reduced effectiveness at less than 50% max condition. This slice will improve the armour’s performance under extreme decay. The armour will not begin to suffer the reduced effectiveness until it reaches the level of decay shown below.

230%25%

The first column is the order in which the slice must be made; the second is the changed percentage of condition at which the armour piece begins to suffer from the effects of decay; the third column being the amount added to the piece’s customisation rating.

Improve Impact Deflection:

This slice reduces the amount of damage/decay a piece of armour takes from each hit by 50%. Higher Ranks in this slice increases the likelihood of damage reduction.



OrderChanceCustomisation rating

120%25%

240%25%

360%25%


The first column is the order in which the slice must be made, the second is the chance in percentage terms of each hit’s effect on the armour’s condition being reduced by half, with the third column being the amount added to the piece’s customisation rating.

Add Hardening

This slice gives the armour a chance to absorb 50% of incoming damage to the player. This bonus does not stack with other armour pieces. It only applies if the sliced armour piece is hit in combat (I.E. a head piece bonus of 1% does not result in an overall bonus of 2% as each piece offers 1% for the area of body it covers).


OrderChanceCustomisation rating

The first column is the order in which the slice must be made, the second is the chance in percentage terms of each hit’s damage to the character being reduced by half, with the third column being the amount added to the piece’s customisation rating.

This slice reduces the effect of the Armour Break ability when this armour piece is hit in combat.

And er, thanks for the 'welcome back' quip . I've been distracted by graduating, preparing for and talking with someone about making something out of my university project for their company (that er, didn't go too well ) and trying not to whince perminently at the extremely huge inflamed ball that is now my left tonsil. I've not been totally neglecting my duties though, as you'll see with two posts I'm making a bit later
