    Default Crafted purples

    Was just wondering if anyone managed to craft any level 30 purples, and if they are better than Plat gear. I heard plat gear is still the best and that kinda bores me cause it takes fun out of the hunt. Can anyone confirm? txs

    The crafted one should be better. So far it is most coveted. (ps It sparkles!)

    How do people know plat is the best. Commando plat set isnt worth it it has no dodge on it nice hit but nothing to talk about. Custom gear will have a set bonus and it has nice dodge.

    What Sam said in a previous post was its sparkley and has a set bonus. Bonus FTW.

    These are upgrades from the normal purple gear, though its still hard to say which is best depends on your play type I guess.

    Looks like it would be nice for commando. Not worth it for eng imo, you lose too much dodge from plat gear.

    I talked with a Comm in a custom set (yes sparkling) and he said the set bonus is 1 H/s and a small boost to max health. I'm just gunna stick with regular Meganaut and save the cash, and hope for some pinks. They're the best by far

    And to you people who list recipes for over 10k in the cs... USE YOUR BRAIN! Nobody will buy them when it costs less at the customization station.

    My op custom set seems to give me about 1% crit and a damage bonus. Probably more have yet to actually calculate it.

    Default my opinion

    Engineer set plat:
    offers mana(+15 extra) , dodge , crit

    Good for pvp as a support. Mitigation won't be enough and dodging fully is what will help in those crazy duels. As a engineer balancing out those 2 stat is vital, in a pvp scenario. Your the lifeline. Your their priority target. So forget about DPS. Your job is to run and not get hit.

    Engineer drop set:
    offers int + mana(-15) + hit

    Now put it to the test.
    Int = Dps
    Dmg
    Mana
    ( int adds 1 mana per 5-6 int, then adds 0, then repeats)

    Good for pve. Why? +hit.... It's needed to deliver some damage. Especially if your skills consist of support n heals only. You can compensate and help a little with consistent dmg flow.

    Farming this set will be quite difficult, I suggest if you have some cash to get plat gear and hope for pvp. Till you can replace.

    This is only what I think. Everyone has their own view. This is not a flame nor an attack.

    Thank You!!!!!

    Lol hey Night, that was me you were talking to . I'm still unsure of the set bonus, that's just all I was able to notice when unequipping and reequipping.

    Have plat & custom sets. I assure you, custom sets are substantially better then the plat set. I will post actual stat pics tomorrow.

    God that operative armor is just terrible lol. Why is the head the size of the torso...? Why are the wings so wide and awkward? Why do operatives have wings in the first place...
    Commando looks like a transformer...but pulls it off well. Pretty cool looking actually.
    Engineer looks like..well..the way it did before kind of.

    So is the sparkle for the custom set those square things floating around in the above pic? I know the ghostly column is from the enhancer. I kinda disappointed that all I got for m engi custom set is puffs of smoke. Makes me feel like either my suit is steampunk powered by steam or two, I'm very flatulent. Secondly, as opposed to custom comm and op armor increasing the stat that most benefits the class, my custom armor boosts my Hit and Int which does nothing. I'm ending up using my plat set more because I get the dodge with the plat set. What gives?

    So I finally got around to taking a few screenshots.

    Plat or Custom? You decide! I know what I chose

    Custom (No Helm)

    And also added PINKKKK to the equation for the fun of it

    Plat set with PINK chest

    Custom set with PINK chest
    Name:  PINK Custom.jpg

    Only possible way PINK will be better is with full set that will add 2x5 Dodge but lack with other stats, though if a full PINK set bonus is given..
