Armor?

Dudette · Wed, 21st Feb '01, 5:53pm

Whats the best armor in the game that you can get?

Blackthorne TA · Wed, 21st Feb '01, 6:07pm

Drow Full Plate +5.

But since that's only temporary: Armor of the Hart.

The drow stuff excluded:
For sheer AC a +2 FieldHarnish (don't know if thats the real english name)

For resistances: Valygars fam. mail
or red dragon scale mail

Ragusa · Wed, 21st Feb '01, 6:56pm

IIRC the red dragon scale is the best armour with the fancy field plate armour you find in the Kua-Toa-area (a +3 ?!).
The first one has the advantage that it can be combined with the +1/+2 rings/ cloaks of protection so it excells at sheer AC.

Shura · Thu, 22nd Feb '01, 4:35pm

Armor is for cowards.
Us honorable Kensai disdain such primitive forms of protection.

Firestorm · Fri, 23rd Feb '01, 6:37pm

IIRC its called WE honorable Kensai disdain such primitive forms of protection.
but then again anyone who goes into battle without any armor must be either a mage or not very intelligent (no offence)

Well put!! But as you know, some people on this board think, that using your brains (at a higher level than monster-AI) is cheating!

Taluntain · Sat, 24th Feb '01, 9:37pm

Gee, it's been a while since we had a roleplaying VS. powergaming war here. Why not start another. But I'll be damned if I'm gonna throw the first stone.

Crawl · Sun, 25th Feb '01, 6:52am

Oh that's great Tal. Encourage them

But we have needed something to spice up the BG2 boards lately. Hey, you might just be on to something. Let the two factions battle it out and spill their blood, which will no doubt be used in some arcane ritual to add to the ever growing power of Sorcerer's Place. Mmmmwwwwaaahhhaaaahhhhaaa!!!!

Taluntain · Sun, 25th Feb '01, 11:06am

Damn! You have revealed my nasty plot for world domination.
Oh well. I guess I'll just have to kill you now and cover this whole thing up before someone notices.
*Tal disintegrates Crawl. Hope he didn't have any good items on him*

Crawl · Mon, 26th Feb '01, 5:42am

Heh, thank god for spelltrap. Otherwise, you might have missed out on my +7 Boot of Sorcerer Smiting. *Crawl prepares to kick the extra point* Have a nice day

Silroth · Mon, 26th Feb '01, 4:15pm

Gee, Tal, I never thought of starting another little flamewar. But the idea isn't so bad.
Anybody above 500 posts is a nasty, brainless, little powerposter without culture or style.
Me now, I'm telling you, roleposting is the only way to go!!
Rethink your unholy attitudes or be smitten to ashes you evil, sister torturing sorcerer.

Taluntain · Mon, 26th Feb '01, 11:16pm

Yay brother, I shall kneel and repent fortwith! Let us sing praise to the Almighty Lord of All That Is Pure and True Role-play Like!

No need to remove your eyes to become a believer either!

Crawl · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 6:39am

Bah, like all your total posts don't add up to 500 Silroth. But watch it, or I might lace up my +12 Boot of Silroth Smiting

Bash my post numbers, will you. Grrr....

Silroth · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 11:27am

No Tal, please don't remove your eyes, just read the posts before replying. Or just take a break in posting.

Crawl:
I pityfully look down on you. The Ring of Void gives me protection against magic weapons, and truely you do look a kind of funny, with that one giant boot and the other foot bare.

Taluntain · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 11:59am

What's that supposed to mean: "Read posts before replying"?

I don't know, if you don't get some of the stuff I write maybe you should read it again. Hopefully that'd help...

Shura · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 4:21pm

*Powergames and cheats insanely with Shadowkeeper*
Ha! Not even Tal's disintegrates can reach through a computer screen!
*Gets throat slit by assassin sent by Amon Ra*
Urghhhhhh

Silroth · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 5:13pm

Tal, I meant your replying to powergaming insted of powerposting, which you are clearly guilty of

.

Taluntain · Tue, 27th Feb '01, 11:04pm

Oh, THAT.

I was under the impression that powergaming and powerposting go hand in hand in your opinion. (Where else would you get the "power" word from if not from powergaming). It's not like powerposting is a word used on a daily basis.

Silroth · Wed, 28th Feb '01, 10:32am

Of course not. But I hate to do the same flames over again, with the same frontlines as before.
so be prepared for the revolution: poor discriminated newbees against the evil establishment
