Hey Just a quick heads up, if those armors include a damage and/or speed bonus for damage type, you can go ahead and stop. Otherwise I'm hyped for some bug fixes and improved textures.
the only thing that change in the combat poll was needle got remove from r90 CD..lolol. Revert is a lost dream. and GG heavy
Then what do you propose they offer? You cannot just add a bunch of new armor and say "oh here you go, have a few new colour variations of studded and robes that cost higher tier materials to make, and ultimately offer the same as metal armor". The maximum number of possible options with just protections versus encumbrance have been exhausted with metal armor from chain to dragon, there is no relevant gaps in between, save for one tier between full plate and infernal to make veilron and neithal used in an armor set. They need to offer something that shakes up the rigid 2012 meta, and enhance diversity. Different effects will accomplish this. There is no reason to panic. Just because New Dawn fucked up and overdid it, doesn't mean BPG has to repeat those mistakes. Leather armor could just boost physical damage without boosting attack speed for example, just like robes could just boost magical damage without boosting mana regen on top. As for this 'combat revert' stuff, the player base is different now, with a lot of EU players. I'd suggest a re-poll or just leave it, it's mostly fine as-is, any further back to DF2012 is a negative for most of my guys.
@Metalkon before ppl riot here about combat balance, can u talk a bit about what u guys are doing with armors and combat reverting?
