- - Miscellaneous: Imbued Field Plate (Bertoxxulous) should have Gnome (/forums/showthread.php?t=182783)

A couple quotes from cleric forums which seem to imply gnomes having deity restricted Bertoxx armor. The only armor I could find in the data base that could possibly match that is the Imbued Field Plate (although the year was 2003, so maybe they were going off of old Alla data at the time):

I picked Gnome because a gnome cleric is just about as "unique" as you can get in the game(I think there are 5 to 10 on Xev over 50). Tinkering is fun when I have the time and money.

Brell is my diety just because bertoxx cultural was harder to find. Not that I even wore any cultural I wish I would have went bert now.

Quote:

Brell because my gnome warrior is also a Brell worshipper, so I could share cultural between them. If I'd known that Brell armor lacked wisdom on neck and boots, I might have gone Bristlebane, but I didn't know. Worked out well, since imbued Rubies (Brell) or Black Sapphires (Bertox) are needed for gnome cultural.

Human cultural is one of the more verstital for lots of different races to use

Karana human , half elf , Wood elf

Rallos zek: Human, Barbarian, Half elf, Hafling, Wood elf.

Rodcet nife : Human, Wood Elf , Half ElF

Innoruuk: Human , Half Elf

You forgot Dwarf and Gnome :D

(shameless bump)

Oh, actually, I never noticed this but Dwarf warriors on this server can't be RZ. Is that correct? I wonder if the armor is wrong, the ability to select is wrong, or it's just a classic discrepancy. It does seem odd because I thought someone told me any warrior, regardless of race, could be RZ.

Edit: Hmm, DWF def supposed to be on there.

Edit2: Ah, classic inconsistency:

It's religious armor, too. Dark Elf Warriors can worship Rallos Zek. What gets me though is.. No Dwarf can worship Rallos Zek, I guess because their main religion is opposed to Rallos Zek.. read the EQ stories to know why. I can't believe Verant doesn't know this, and we do

Sorry about the self-debate :)

Bump

To recap:

-Classic bracer SS showing gnome, only question was if other pieces had, which was raised by comment wondering if other pieces had lost gnome
-Secondary evidence on both Alla and EQtraders saying that all pieces were gnome wearable
-Anecdotal evidence from EQClerics with posts talking about gnome cultural which required black sapphires

ah you are right vega forgot gnomes 8), and yes dwarf cannot be rolls zek here.

Bump

I've done a bit of digging, but haven't found much more. Is it possible to get another dev comment? Is this still insufficient on evidence or is this just one of those things that hasn't had much time to get looked at?

Fixed, pending update

-All pieces of Imbued Field Plate (Bertox) are now gnome usable
-Removed PAL from available classes
