Talk:Scout's armor

"Extremely useful for every ranger"? Not many rangers use preparations that often. The most common are Read the Wind and Apply Poison, and both have relatively fast cast times and last a moderate ammount of time. I would only suggest it over Dracescale and Frost. :) --Sagius Truthbarron 01:06, 30 March 2006 (CST)

Does this give the bonus while you're casting the preparation or while you have a preparation active (i.e., is it pointless or rather good?) Starlight 16:00, 22 June 2006 (CDT)


 * Did some testing and it seems to work while the preparation is "active", I tested at the Nameless Obelisk first without preparation. Others are willing to confirm this thou. Something to note is that the Mask does not have a preparation bonus and is then easiest to test with without. The obelisk should do 120 damage without the mask when hit in the head. Around 21 otherwise. User:Anryla (7 July 2006 15:23)
 * I did a test to see if it was global as well and my test came to the answer that they were not global.

In aspenwood, I tested this out myself (noticed it by accident). I took 13 damage from Unsteady Ground while not activating one, which was reduced to 11 when I started activating. Then I tried on some guys Fire Storm, taking 11 when not, 9 when I was activating --Gimmethegepgun 20:54, 25 January 2007 (CST)


 * So..is the armor ONLY applied to the activation of a Preparation and not being under the effects of one, or to both? GrammarNazi 02:48, 9 February 2007 (CST)


 * Actually I'm not sure. It would have to be tested. - BeXoR  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 03:02, 9 February 2007 (CST)

 * The armour bonus only applies when a preparation skill is being activated, not when it is active. Just tested with Wild Blow in a scrim.  So I dont see why you would ever want to use this insignia... Buzzer 00:06, 27 February 2007 (CST)
