Why am I quoted as having ps... Sorry for long quote etc.? I disnt even say that.

Anyway, as to the vote, historically legionary armor was light enough to move on quickly yet protective. So I would go for the light armor, the lighter you are the more easily you will swing and fight in melee if your movement range isn't restricted by weight. The heavier armor can be left to the other classes.


Re: New armor for Legionnaire - Mr Killer - 03-02-2015

In my opinion legionnaires already have enough gear and stuff to choose from when you compare it to other hero classes such as ranger who only gets one new armor and 2 new bows and arrows to choose from (which are usable by every archer hero class). Or when it is compared to an hero class such as Aventurier who only gets 4 new swords to choose from while legionnaire gets 6 new swords, 4 new throwables (not including the bad ones), but also has access to the second best armor in the game for swadians. My point being that legionnaire has a lot to choose from already unlike some other hero classes.

If there was to be a new armor implemented for legionnaire then I would say it should be lighter but with less armor as already said here. My question would be how would it help legionnaires though? If you were to get lighter armor it may help throwing accuracy (don't know if there is armor weight penalties on wpf in this mod or if there isnt any), it wouldn't help you when you attack the nords outside the cades that much because although it would let you backpedal faster you ballistamen would do more damage to you and most of the times you run out there you are the only one and you will most likely die. Running out there with a team however it would not help you to have less body armor since it would be more likely to be 1-2 hit rather than 2-3 hit by nords (depending on the gamemode).

A place where the lighter armor would help you would be when you are soloing which I thought was supposed to be destroyed as this is a teamwork game. I myself may and probably am wrong on some of this stuff as I have never played legionnaire before but I have seen many people play the class and I myself as a Royal Guard have done some of the things legionnaires sometimes do (getting nords into melee, mobile shieldwalling, etc.). I believe an new armor for legionnaire is not needed nor would it help the class in fighting with a team.

omg like i said if you don't like get trans for me i play to much and most of it is helping tr1-tr3 level up on normal so like i said i would trade my trans for a lighter one with less armor any day but i know people that just do hard and rag rans all day there the people that get trans 
i see this armor as being the armor that you buy/make and you have trans or Striped Armor etc as a back up


Re: New armor for Legionnaire - Looter - 04-02-2015

Legionaire gets pikeman throwing weapons and a now small selection of swords ever since its swords were given to buff other classes, reducing its variety plus the fact it currently gets no new armors/shields, that In my opinion is not enough. The throwable situation is the same with the above mentioned one with archers and bows, they only get the same stuff a pikeman hero could use yet with even less skill than a t4 archer using a heroes dropped gear, which doesn't help its situation. Adding some light armor would add variety and getting it would be personal preference, not harm the players who like to grind away on hard/ragnorok, they can keep their heavy armor if they like.

Throwable situation of Legionnaire is good enough, they have more throwing skill than T3 pikeman. Also acces to dragon breath making legionnaire OP.

About armor i also think it should be light but strong enough for hard and ragnarok. Same stats as trans with different weight and usable only by legionnaire only

[/quote]I also said that legionnaires have more than enough choice in weapons and other things too compared to some of the other hero classes out there. Even in normal you would shield and use barricades for the later waves and use tactics that are used on hard/rag runs. That was just my opinion on this topic.

6 swords is a lot compared to the 1 new armor ranger gets, the 2 bows that warden gets (usable by all archer hero classes), the 4 new throwables master peltast gets (3 of which are usable by all pikeman hero's). What my point is as I have already said is that legionnaire already has more choice than some of the other hero classes out there so shouldn't they get some new stuff before legionnaires do?


Re: New armor for Legionnaire - Sargent Q - 04-02-2015

Because there is models being made for this.  Or rather textures.  The biggest issue the devs have with adding new gear to the mod, is that they don't have models.

ok i see were you are one of the fist this i said ranger could maybe were it if we make this armor with eg ranger in mind i think it would look like this but my main problem with this Is it would be to weak for leg
or this 2nd armor (heavy armor) that one 1 person wants at the time of that  could be a ranger armor that rangers need


Leg-Ranger armor                  Ranger armor                      Trans
Weight 15-20                        Weight 25                          Weight 35
Body armor 60-64                  Body armor 60-64            Body armor 60-64
Leg armor 25-28                  Leg armor 25                    Leg armor 31

and Q is right that why i wanted to start with a model that already in game as it easier to change some things then start again so i found Banded Mail Armor which is not really conman and  Guardian Armor which is less
