Gnomish cultural...

[Kredal]

I hope you've saved up a bunch of your tinkered armor... you're going to need it again.

Using celestial tempers, imbued gems, mino blood, and some other general vender bought stuff, you will be upgrading your tinkered armor to match (in some cases exceed) other cultural armor, complete with the original tinkered armor effects. (:

When I get home tonight, I'll verify that the recipes that went live are the same ones that I saw on test, and post it all here and at the Tinkering Compendium.

I have to say, I'm very impressed with Frizznik's work on this, and I'm sure you all will be to.

Dark Blue is the new gnome war/pal/sk/cleric/rogue color. (:

Darn, and I just used up loads of holgresh fur making a fur cloak coz they were taking up too much room!

I love dark blue though, and I think it's great there's cultural chain too!

Anything for us Caster Tinkers?

*crosses fingers*

I have heard conflicting reports.. Some say they have heard of cloth armor, other of just plate and chain.

Smalltim, my enchanter, is waiting breathlessly.

deited this post, was so excited I listed Celestial temper as Celestial essence, sorry for any confusion

OK, then it's exactly what I saw... imbued gems are made by any cleric follower of Brell or Bertox above lvl 29 (or is it 25?) Bristlebane gems (peridots) were kept out because they were cheaper than either rubies or black sapphires, and because two recipes is enough for one finished item. (:

Nothing for int casters, I'm afraid. ):

Yo Kredal

So... it meets or exceeds other cultural armors? Man am I glad the weekend is coming up!

I'm so happy, I wish that I wasn't at work!! I can go home and start upgrading my cultural amors...

Anyone know what the difficulty is to upgrade this stuff? Is it no fail or high skill check?

I can't wait!!

Bah, now if Dark Elves can make chain armours that casters can wear I would think that gnomes, being superior in both looks and intellect would be able to make caster wearable chain armours.

Oh well, I suppose at least its something I can use to upgrade my cleric alt.

Bleh. Time for gnome casters to unite! Tinkered robes and pointy hats!

[hraveob]

we demand equality!

Both High elf and Dark elf casters can wear their respective cultural chain armors. What a bunch of crap if they opress we(e) (pun intended) short folk by dissalowing the same thing.

[Lilosh]

Agreed!!!!

Tinkered robes and pointy hats!!!!!!

Except for the fact that adamantite and mithril are reknowned for their lightness, thus the fact that casters can wear the chain.

[Kredal]

Yes.. take a look at the imbued underfoot armor. Now add int to it (because SKs use int)... and add the effect on the original piece (str, sow, invis, summon wrench....) and paint it dark blue.. and there's the new armor. (:

It trivs at about the same as the smithed high end cultural.

It's rechargable with a class 5 battery

And.... it's the reason the trivs on clockwork armor were lowered. See? They really do know what they're doing. hehe

[Goresmash]

Except for the fact that adamantite and mithril are reknowned for their lightness, thus the fact that casters can wear the chain.

Granted that those metals are light weight, but I think with a proper application of pistons, gears, support rods, and other tinkering bit the weight is not a problem.

[Yalum]

No peridot imbues? As if bd chain didn't suck enough already, this is only for the two Brell and one Bertox rogue per server?
