Customized Epic Armor - Bang for your buck?

[IBNobody]

The difference between a custom and non-custom epic armor piece is a total of 20 HPs+MPs (20MP for comms, 5HP and 15MP for enges, 10HP and 10HP for ops.)

That equates to 100HPs+MPs for a full set of 5x customs. (100MP for comms, 25HP and 75MP for enges, 50HP and 50HP for ops.)

It costs 10k + materials to customize, or 50k + materials to customize a full set.

Is it worth it?

I guess if you had a guild that could afford the recipe cost, the prices would go down to just materials...

[Ellyidol]

My guess is, maybe when PvP is out. But for PvE? I'd save the cash if it's just for HP/MP which stims/heals can do.

[Archyx]

With Ellyi on this one. Pointless in pve

It's still nice to have extra health and mana. Better survivability.

[javier995]

lop ima get customized on my comm(since its my main) i just need the epic vest and helmet and a few crafting materials and im set ^_^

[Kakatoa91]

Ive seen the numbers too.
Crafting doesnt add much, ill spare cash.
Is there a different anim or sparkling maybe? Or does it look the same?

Also, what's the difference bet the custom epic armor and the plat epic armor? Idk which one is better :s

[Samhayne]

I believe there is a sparkly for a full set and a set bonus as well.

Anyone have a full set yet?

Wondering where you've been hiding :p

[Acyer]

Hmm think you may have changed my mind on plat gear. Set bonus ftw.

[Colin27]

I'd save the cash if it's just for HP/MP which stims/heals can do

So like the onyx set on pl,ive worn full and was shiny lol,cool

[Acezero]

Just saying I'd do play gear for op. Lets face it ops trying stack armor is pitiful. If you want to survive stack dodge. From a full plat set you can get 4x6=24 dodge plus your base 3 is 27 then your implat of 5 is 32. Let's round it to 33 and say if the eneny has 100% hit you dodge 1/3 of attacks. Then add neural shck to low their hit by 15 on a boss that would be 48 effective dodge which is nearly half dodge rate for bosses. Essentially you become tanky. However i would do that if SL skills didn't suck so much, you. Mine as well amp damage and auto attack. I do plan on making a post on this.

[ProSophist]

There is absolutely no reason for an Op to stack survival stats for PvE. With a good Com in the group, an Op shouldn't be able to grab aggro; hence, making armor or dodge irrelevant. As for trash mobs, Ops lack AoE damage. So again, with a decent Com, there is no reason to pull aggro.

So, the slouch/custom set is much better since it provides crit and more health while the plat set provides dodge.

PvP-wise, it's definitely another story.

Oh thx for info sam and considerin set bonus for non pink color. I remember I suggested it in post some time ago :D

[BodMaster]

Yup.. haha *watches while all crafting items for each set sky rockets* thinking to himself "lucky I kept all my crafting items hehe"

IT SPARKLES! Those ponies are going after them now! :D (lol get it?)

[Kindread]

I think what Sam's comment meant to say was if anyone has seen a full set of epic together yet and how it sparkles and heck out the set bonus. I don't think he meant that the custom epic set sparkles and has a set bonus and the plat gear does not. I saw someone in full plat engineer gear. She sparkled like a Xmas tree.

[BodMaster]

Hmm what else could he mean.. im sure thats what they have done to seperate the upgraded gear, if not also happy with just the set bonus :D

And yup.. Ghost looks like one of them haha crazy bright and colourful.. still want dark red/black camo lighting effects.. :p

[Acyer]

Ive got 2 pieces made of the custom gear and color of the armor is the same as the lvl 20 plat set the green and tan for commando.

[BodMaster]

Maybe only Sparkles when the full set has been collected? haha, hopefully there is a set bonus

[skavenger216]

I just completed my custom meganaut set on my commando, and can confirm that it indeed sparkles. It looks awesome, especially with the added sparkles from the weapon.

Ummmmea....maybe a luck vanity like pl (Bigluck/make it a shield vanity they look cool like a cloverleaf metal shield/transparent center O.O) would help lots :p

PvP-wise, it's definitely another story.says you. In theory you become as effective as a commando and 90% as effective as a op in a boss fight. To my knowledge in all games the guy who can survive like a tank and deal damage like a machine is much more useful than a tank and a damage dealer separately

[Ebalere]

Just throwing it out there between Skav, nawtiq, and rodvik, we have at least one of all classes in full crafted sets, and none of them sparkled in plat gear.

I will try get set bonuses together for y'all after work, but by then hopefully more people have crafted sets too. I'm doing the grind without elixirs, so jelly of all my guildmates who sparkle already :D

[kyzark]

Just need some ingredients and I'll be getting custom :)

Geesh already Skav? Lol I need 48,000 more credits, more ingredients, and the atomite helm, back, and shoes to get my custom set! :p
(and to top it off, get to lvl 30) ;)

[kyzark]

Just got full custom :) woo

[IBNobody]

So... What are the set bonuses you are seeing?

I have full plat gear & no sparkle, Also have full Chroma & Deatomizer & still need to Customize each individual piece for a sparkle or set bonus. A few guildies allready have them. They look cool :moon:

[Cahaun]

You can get recipe drops at sloucho. Quite rare but I have seen a few drop. One actually dropped to me.

[Nightarcher]

Ok we get it, there are sparkles woohoo.

Now what are the set bonuses!?

:)
