Talk:Necromancer Monument armor/Female

new images and handwitten template
Uploaded new images which I think are way better than the old bleached out ones. Had to hand-copy the template code because the skirt is really wide from the back, and I didn't want the character to look tiny on the other images to make them all consistent. This is the same as Necromancer Elite Cultist armor/Female. Hope y'all like it. RoseOfKali 08:43, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Yay, now we have serviceable images for this armor!--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]Giga †ħŕášħ 08:44, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Just wait 'til I get to Dwarven... Those are so bad it almost makes me wanna cry. >_< But I gotta buy me a bone dragon first. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 09:05, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Color
Is it just me, or is this armor somehow..."not black"? When I look at myself in the inventory, it looks fine, base color is black etc. just like it looks on wiki. But in the actual game, no matter where I am or what the lighting is like, my armor appears much more brown-colored. It makes me sad because it doesn't come cheap, and I thought the dye preview/wiki images never lied. :C

I will upload a screenshot once that feature of Wiki is working again. >.> (T/C) 04:57, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I think this armor accepts dye colors slightly off from what you would expect, it's kind of weird. I would have just dyed it silver, what a waste of black dye on some trim...  I also switched to FireFox until they fix the IE issues, uploading works fine in it.  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 06:13, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, black+white is the rest of my armor set (Fanatic), and it seemed to be the closest match in the dye preview. (I think it does very slightly affect the color of other areas, too) I get the correct colors in dye preview, inventory, and also on character selection screen...everywhere else, the black of one set and of the other differ noticeably. I thought about just changing for the rest of Monument Armor, but don't like the other pieces. Oh well... at least it costs less than FoW armor, which I need just the leggings piece for my Warrior, because nothing else will match with Ancient Boots' base black without being a skirt. >.> [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 06:36, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Lol, well, aren't you a mixer? But anyway, Fanatic armor has very peculiar dye scheme that is not very common between other armors, so I can imagine it being pretty tough to match that one.  Monument is closer to the Elite Cultist set in coloration.  If you'd like to see those two sets mixed in any way, I can arrange that for you. :)  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 07:18, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I prefer to spend my time hunting for the perfect armor set rather than boring things like elite skills :] Hmm. Elite Cultist's does look strangely similar, so perhaps I will change my normal Cultist's pieces to that. (5 Black and 5 White dyes wasted :O) I dunno, though, because I really liked the "glow" effect. Eg Image:Dunames Dark Witch.jpg. Can't get that with Elite Cultist's / Monument.

 * I personally think they mixed up the Elite and Standard there... Fanatic's just looks so much better than the Elite Custist, and I don't see why you'd want to mix much of anything into it. What piece are you mixing?  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 19:14, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Well...if I cannot get the Monument armor to match color, then I figure that I need to make the Cultist pieces match, hence switching to Elite Cultist. It has a different feel to it since it has less "rivets"/"stripes" and more "embroidered" design. So I guess I will do Monument boots and legs, and Elite Cultist torso and gloves. (Monument torso has ugly collar thing, and the gloves look silly) Black+White dye for all pieces, because that's the color I like, even if it is barely noticeable. :>
 * The good thing is that I never have to worry about scar patterns, since for my Necro they are all basically invisible anyway. That has saved me a lot of money over time. Same for Monk. Hair is underrated. :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 19:19, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * You should give silver a try. ;) Also try some other mixes. Green+purple or blue+yellow or brown often give interesting results.  I spend like half an hour mixing dyes whenever I get new armor, to see what I like best. :P Also, don't forget about gray, I've used it in mixes before.  You might be able to cook up something that matches the current color of your other pieces. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 19:40, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
