New armor for Legionnaire - DR. - 02-02-2015

Well i had this idea which i did tell Winter and he did say "Sounds good" that we make/put in some armor for
Legionnaire/maybe Ranger as they both have the same problem and this problem is that (manly Legionnaire)
they have the Pilum,Very Heavy Throwing Axes, Dragon Breath! and cant out run a lot of stuff
what im getting at is this armor will be light so my guess it would go in the level 14 armor smith with trans etc
so it maybe a other option to trans as trans would be the heavy armor for hard/rag and this light armor for normal/kiting 
so i need some one to help me make this/do it Tongue
make the "Banded Mail Armor" in a different colour e.g. Heraldic?, White Blue, Black ,Dark Purple

Please, anything but that one, Corndog. D:

I can have a look at the banded later today, and see if I can make some decent other colors, if they aren't around already.

Gonna make a heraldic version of it if you want.  Tongue
Just gotta find the time for that. (Doesnt take too long though, might gonna post a screenshot later today..)

wouldn't a heraldic version of banded mail look too much like Yuri's Brigandine or whatever it's called?

if not, then please do, cause that would look cool.


or maybe another option could be one of these armors that i already asked permission for to use in the mod?

Woodz, I luv u! Fantastic idea!

Re: New armor for Legionnaire - Elmo - 02-02-2015

how about banded mail armour with cross colours like this...

Maybe Red + blue/black to stick with the Swadian colours or maybe  a slightly darker Swadian symbol on the top right part of the chest piece?

Real nice one, Elmo, gj.

However, I'd love to see a decent heraldic. I do feel we're missing heraldic armours for commando. There is the Heraldic mail (50) and Heraldic Trans (72), the later crazy expensive for a tiny +2 update over regular Trans.

For non-heraldic in between we have: 60 strong marketplace armours (fantastic value for money) and Swadian Heavy Lamellar / Striped 68 strong, still very affordable. Then the price goes high for Trans.

So if we're talking about a Lagionnaire dedidcated armour, I do think it should be Trans level in strength and cheaper or similar cost and a bit stronger (72 perhaps). Like mentioned above, I'd like to see it heraldic.

As for original idea from Woodz, I am not sure if a dedicated Legionnaire armour should be light (means also weak, since making it strong and light looks off-balance to me). Surely, it could make Legio able to kite perhaps, but I have 2 remarks on that:

1. if a Legio should drop everything except throwing weapon and go kite, then we already have a perfect kiter - MP. I do not feel we need an infantry substitute...
2. what is so fine about Legio is that this is a very versatile character: can fight in melee with high success (if equipped with a decent 1H), can shield well (if equipped with a decent shield), can throw if behind cades and not shielding... If also brings good support item, Legio is very helpful for the team in a variety of ways. Why try to reprofile it? Job for infantry is just to stand ground IMHO.

PS.  please, do correct if I missed some armour options.
