imo fishing for pansarscales is a waste of time prot is only +2 compared to platescales, just wait for crocodiles to be implemented.
armor looks lit tho ngl.
rng history is like tracking who won the lottery
It isn't just +2 i think its +6-7 points overall all across blunt piercing and slashing, but that alone is is more than enough to justify the upgrade IMO.
The cost on endgame gear for the final points is at it should for a good reason.
First so the dude on dirt poor gear has a chance of beating you even if the odds are on your favor, i love the fact that a 5 gold set is not that much worse than a 50 gold set and that one isn't much worse than the 500g set but there is still an advantage on investing further into your gear.
Second so the dudes that have more time on their hands than others have a reason to keep investing into upgrading their characters without completely breaking the game for the normal players, returns on time invested into a game should always have diminishing returns, otherwise you get something simillar to darkfall with no skill cap and whoever start a month later gets fucked in the ass for eternity because he is never going to catch up.
Third, defense in this game being flat instead of % makes huge disparities even when the upgrade is only tiny in paper.
If i have 200hp and There is a foot soldier hitting me for 40 on average he can kill me in 5 hits, but suddenly if he now hits me for 38 on average i can survive an extra hit, add healing to the mix and your effective HP is much better all around.
EDIT: Fourth, Vanity, its like buying a Ferrari, Mercedes or Rolls-Royce, you know you are wearing something not many others will, that it looks cool AF and that there is not anything better in the game that you could be wearing.
