Fine Plate Armor

[LittleSorcerer7]

Selling fine plate armor of all sizes. PM me what you need

[Xumosa]

out of curiosity whats this worth?

[maultar]

I was told 900 but I have not figured out actual cost yet.

One sheet of folded metal runs about 20.5 plat. The average mold is about 5 plat give or take. There are 13 pieces to a set. Some pieces require 2 sheets and 2 pieces require 3 sheets.

4 pieces at 25.5 plat = 102
7 pieces (2 sheets) at 51 plat = 357
2 pieces (3 sheets) at 76.5 = 153

Total cost excluding water flasks and fails and padded leather = 612.

If the smith has to pay for padding then it goes up from there. So for all the effort and heartache 900 to me seems not worth it. Total AC is 127

I've made a few pieces already and the fails are not as bad as you would think.

[Lanaden]

Correct me if i'm wrong but I think the going rate back in the day was 1pp per for banded, 2pp per ac for bronze and 5pp per ac for FS. I know that cost is gonna run higher here since there's a smaller crowd.

[Pyrocat]

I've seen full set go for 900

[vinx]

ive seen people sellin for 1500 for full set, but this was early, like dec-jan.
feb it was around 1200p and havent seen much advertising for full sets the past couple months.

Seems the going rate for bronze is 1pp/ac. Just bought some yesterday.

I need a small fine plate bracer and large fine plate mask as per my PM. Please /tell eldub in game!

[eldub]

Hi, any updates? Please let me know when you are in game and what your character name is!

[VincentVolaju]

So wait, its 90pp for 110 AC from Bronze, or 900pp for 127 AC from Full Plate?

Is the extra 17 AC worth the 810pp?

Im thinking of starting a Warrior and I have a full set of Wu to sell which is worth 900ish, so buying a set of Full Plate would break me. Maybe Full Plate isn't the best idea for a new warrior?

[maultar]

It's worth it if you wanna be leet and have the best of the best. You don't have to, but you want to :) And cost on FP is 600-700 if you include leather padding cost.

[VincentVolaju]

Oh only 600-700? Hmm, well leaves a couple hundred for weapons still I suppose. What are some good newb warrior weapons?

[Malrubius]

Sorry for the ultra-n00b question here from an old-school caster...

I understand that FS is crafted.

But Large Bronze is dropped, right? So you can't generally just go and buy a full set (like you can with FS). Instead, you need to get it piecemeal from grovelling in /auction. Correct?

[astarothel]

Correct. FS also has a better AC to weight ratio.

People do sell full sets, or at least full visible sets anyway. Look out for them.

on that note WTS full set of medium bronze :D

[VincentVolaju]

Emm, I think for broke I am and how noob I am it would be best to just go with the "Cheap but decent" set which is Bronze heh. So now I just need a full set of Bronze... I just wish the guy above me was selling small as I plan on making a Dwarf =(

[LittleSorcerer7]

My Characters name in game is Taledar, and I do have about 160+ish Smithing just for the people asking. :)

Correction 136 AC for a full suit of FP. Thanks to whoever told me in PM. Again that's if your town sells all the molds.
