Ok, Due to real life getting in the way I have not logged in in a while, Until last night! first thing i see in chat is a fel keep for sale, I go take a loot and its one I have passed while mining a million times and though... I would love that place! bought it!

OK now for the real thing! I have always hated not beoing able to use much other than leather / woodland for making suits... when filling some iron bods las niight I had to do a double take on the resists! Did they FINALLY give metal armour a rework in terms of resist!!! if so this is amazing!

It might just be that I have not looked at the restst of the pieces for so long that they seem hihk but I am pretty sure I am not mistaken! Can anyone confirm??

many many thanks,
Loken

I don't think they have altered the resists for a long time, but there is an armour revamp in the works and they are trying to make metal armour useful again.

Where is your Fel keep? Just interested.

Like hen said the rework is on TC right now and none of the changes are final as of yet

I donlt know if they have reworked resists anytime in the past several years for metal armor. However assuming they don't pull it *I doubt they will* But ingots did get an upgrade in the latest update to the newest publish on test center. :) http://stratics.com/community/threads/uo-com-updated-publish-81-on-tc1.295967/ Post number 11 helps explain it more as well.

This was a big help thank you, I am going to wait until I have done some messing around before I start any serious suit making but I can't wait to make my assassin a suit. Really looking forward to making something other than leather / woodland!
