Suggestion for metals

Post by Penny »

Right now plat is pretty much the only metal used to make armor, because it has better stats.

Gold gives some luck, so gold is used a little too.

But otherwise the metals aren't used. Would it be possible to have different metals give
different bonuses (like gold gives luck)? For example verite gives a small bonus to LRC.
Valorite LMC etc etc.

Just a thought, this might bring the forgotten metals back to life :)
Failure is not an option, it's a standard.

Yes that would be very nice.

Something for weapons world be nice to. Since enemy of one kind of takes away the usefulness of a weapon hitting a certain resistant type.

The same can be said for the leather and wood types. Certain of the leather type like barbed and shadow are used for specific crafting, but most of the others don't have much use. The crafting idea could be expanded instead of bonuses; certain useful items that could only be crafted with specific leather, metal or wood types.

Right now the only use for most of these "off" types is to complete BODs. But since only a few of the crafting BOD rewards have enough value or usefulness to justify trying to complete them, most people don't try.
