Coal Armor and Evil Mage Cloth

[Magus]

At some point during t2a I believe that evil mages only dropped 3 different colors of cloth. The darkest being very much sought after when the robe colors changed to being lighter and more diverse. Can anyone confirm this?

Also is there any plan to implement a way to get coal armor? Its totally era accurate for people to be rocking that stuff

Coal was just a bit darker than shadow plate. Cool stuff

I'd really like to see colored armor on smiths again. That blue-black one looks neat:

Throughout the time during T2A when you could acquire evil mage cloth, evil mages spawned around 50 different shades of blue. With the introduction of blue sandals on evil mages, the numbers were drastically reduced to around 5 different colors, with evil mage no longer being an optional color. As for coal armor, coal was a specific hue, hue 1109 to be exact. That particular hue was unattainable by any other means but to obtain coal and smelt it into coal ingots. As for the other colored types of armor, they were seen as colored store bought armor that could be seen as part of the inventory of some vendors. These were all various shades of colors that were in similar color ranges to that of actual colored armor.

The suggestion wasn't forgotten, the debate as I remember it was whether these hues were removed when colored ore was introduced.

[Finesse]

no derrick they were not removed

atleast in the start of uor you could deffently buy these from smiths i played test alot in that era so i was always crafting weps for my self

[Magus]

As I remember it colored armor was still sold by the vendors but when smelted it turned into normal iron ingots when colored ore was released.

[Finesse]

if you smelted coloured ore in any era on osi it reverted to iron i think not sure tho.

Aye. I never really felt like that had been settled, but more and more evidence points towards it.

What are the chances we'll ever see some of that Green Studded Armor in the game? I think it was the Christmas present for Good Guys while Coal turned out to be the present for bad guys. Odd how it worked that coal turned out to be the better present. I'm sure this was before T2A and yet it existed as a special item throughtout T2a for those who recieved it.
