Talk:Monk Flowing armor

vellum expensive?
it's not THAT expensive is it? Certainly not in the 7k range... -SolaPan 02:40, 23 March 2006 (CST)


 * It used to be very expensive. I know when I made mine, I spent 80k for vellum + armor cost. LordKestrel 02:52, 23 March 2006 (CST)

I blew 200k on 2 sets, don't know the price now, but that was then 03:01, 23 March 2006 (CST)


 * 350 rolls of vellum at 20 gold each (artisan's price) is 7k pure crafting cost - to that add the 1750 each of wood and dust you'll need for crafting it. If we assume a price of 3 gold for wood and dust that'll be another 10.5k. Still only about 12.3k per armor piece. At the material trader vellum is at 190 gold right now. If one was insane enough to buy at that rate, he'd pay 66.5k for the lot. -- 03:21, 23 March 2006 (CST)
 * So it's not that bad then. I'm going to modify the note. -SolaPan 03:30, 23 March 2006 (CST)


 * A couple of runs through the Underworld, Talmark Wilderness, or Tombs and you will have your wood and piles of glittering dust and still probably make that 7k it cost to purchase the Vellum from a materials crafter. --Gares Redstorm 03:33, 23 March 2006 (CST)

Reverted anon edit
Anon had added text saying this was preferred armor of 55 monks. I know many 55 monks with it, I know at least as many using low end (my revert erroneously implies the low-end is the preferred - not true). This is one armor that works, just as well as some others that are frequently used. --- Barek (talk &bull; contribs) - 21:51, 25 April 2006 (CDT)
