Arkaine's Valour

[MachX]

a.Needless Post
b.How come nobody told me a mage could wear Arkaine's Valour with absolutely base str
c.How come nobody told me mages look mad sexy wearing said armour?
d.Are there any other armours that change your character's appearance like AV does (specifically lightweight mage stuffs)?

er... am I correct that in d you're asking "What other items change the appearence of your character from the one you start with?"?

well, if I am, then the answer is:
all mail armours (ring mail - splint mail) changes it once (the mage to the cool black thing, the warrior looks like he is using chain mail and the rogue looks also like she has chain mail)
all plate armour (breast plate - full plate mail) change it again (the mage becomes bright red, the warrior looks like a walking sheet metal factory and the rogue becomes fully plated up with a sort of brown looking armour)

Arkaine's valor is based on an arkaine's valor :blink: which is in turn based on a ring mail... hence the black mage

other armours that will change your mage and are lightweight;

Naj's Light Plate based on a plate mail (the sparkly red graphic), has no str requirements, +5 magic, +20 mana, +20% resist all, +1 all spell levels

now there's a mage item if ever there was one, although (I take it you're playing single player ) your chances of finding one will be very minimal


with regards:
B ) I wish someone had told me that, I wasted points into str on my mage...
