I really don't know exactly where to put this, so please redirect (or correct) me if necessary, but...

I believe there's only one store in Zoluren that sells chain hand armor, and I only saw one or two sets in Therengia and a few in Ilithi. Compare this to say leather armor, which has three different sets of gloves in Crossing alone...

I'd like to see more storebought chain hand protection, for those who can't afford/don't like forged chain armor. I'd especially like to see non-neutral chain hand gear in the ironworks up in Haven, 'cause sometimes you don't want it to switch to the highest skill.

I'll probably be in forged armor before too long, but not everyone has that option.

Excellent idea! It's very difficult to find non neutral chain armor accessories. Not only HC and LC gloves, but LC headgear that protects head/neck/eyes. I would appreciate an expansion of the chain armor selections in the armor shops throughout the realm.


You have been vanquished. That is all.

It would also be great if the stores could say what type of each armor is, or make each piece appraisable, so you don't have to waste all your money buying them to find out.

If they update the shops to include more LC/HC gear in Zoluren (which I would encourage)...

How about actually adding cloth and bone armor to non-premie shops?

Those damn goblin cloaks are a pain to wear when you are trying to back-train multiple armors.

Talk to a Paladin. They have the hook up.

Ah yes, I always forget the Paladin guild shops.

Regardless, I think the inclusion of cloth and bone armor in standard city shops is way past due. That was my point.

yeah, my character actually had to pay for it to train it. My character doesn't like paying.

Steal the money from a Paladin, then give it to a Paladin to buy the armor(if it's the same Paladin, it's even better).

That way, you're not paying for it.

There is another shop in Riverhaven near the crate that has more chain and plate armor and has it listed nice for you. Although I have searched every shop and talked with a few folks there seems to be nothing that is LC that protects the head neck AND eyes.

Ratha or Shard has a Balaclava I think that is LC and does neck/eyes/head.

Yeah I know. I was messing with you but apparently you are taking it serious.
My initial suggestion was off the cuff.

Nah, I just hate to see misinformation spread. Just an over-reaction caused by a select few posters. (Not you.)
