The robe and (separate) hood dropped by orks give a very nice robed warrior/jedi look. But like the formal uniform in MxO, just doesn't offer much protection.
-
They aren't our traditional white, either. I also imagine any sort of assassin type group will start wearing them. However, I think are options are going to be a lot more limited than Matrix Online, so with that in mind, it does look cool!
-
I'm hoping these can both be crafted in multiple colors....including white and black.
-
From what you've described, it sounds pretty sweet but if we need variation maybe use different colours for different ranks? I know we're supposed to be equal but maybe it will provide better variety. :)
-
what I'm also hoping is that players can create what is dropped by mobs as well as quite a bit more and in more variety
-
The other thing to keep in mind is to be able to keep a balance between what can practically be worn by tanks/melee player, and also by the spellcasters. Obviously a robe is going to offer a lot less protection, but on the other hand, it will allow casters to charge their spells in less than half the time that a lot of armor will. In a full PVP game like this, practicality really does have to be key.
-
Or just be able to switch to your battle gear in less than 2 seconds!

Something to note, when I played in the beta I noticed a slot in the top-left of my characters equipment screen that was made for a robe of some kind. Obviously whatever clothing that slot corresponded with was designed to be worn with/over armor.

This is something we handled quite well in MXO. We had our formal attire as well as our battle gear as our fomal uniform was not optimal attire for operational use.

Ah, well provided the game does allow for quick on the fly armor switching, then it shouldn't be a problem at all. I just wish I could get in game and check these things for myself...
