REVIEW - Armour System

[Sierra Katrian]

We get where you are coming from, Dan, and we have considered that standpoint. The reason we went with this method was 1) uniformity across the AP board. 2) we want people to fight strategically. Not just the brute fighter going in, hacking and slashing until they are depleted, coming back out, getting smithed and then doing it again. We want there to be consequences to fighting blindly and without allys or a plan.

Heavily armoured people can still fight in the same way they are doing now, but you will have to be very carefull and keep an eye on your armour. You can still get refit to full as long as you don't breach, so your style of fighting will have to change and this may allow others to have fun fighting as well. This method will also allow the NPCs to catch their breath in between waves because smithing will take much longer, and fixing breaches will be top priority.

I also feel that the RP will be more real, and the terror that lightly armoured people feel will become a reality for the heavy armoured people...And rightfully so. Things should be scary, no matter the armour you are wearing. Aren't we playing UW for the fear and excitement?
