I can't seem to find a screenshot of this. I remember it looking like plate, but the only commentary I can find is on the allakhazam page for it:

and the reply:


Umbral like the SK PoF Armor? in that case it would be like normal plate with a dark color but not solid black.

This is not correct. On that database Velious plate 1 is for all items that have the plane of growth armor graphic such as this PoG Bard BP http://lucy.fnord.net/item.html?id=25487. In that database the only appearance for normal plate is listed as plate. Thus meaning that database isnt worth shit because it claims that the Vindi BP has a velious plate 1 graphic http://lucy.fnord.net/item.html?id=25044 which as clearly proven above (even by your own admission) it does not. Type in any of the class pog armor in that database and it will show up as a velious 1 graphic.

The fact that you had one on live doesn't back anything up because you provide no proof. The graphic probably got changed before you looted yours. Please don't post stuff and link databases that you clearly do not know how to read.
You might be right , but as I wrote. I wore eradication BP myself for 2 years and it had velious look. Maybe it looked different the first 6months , but when I had it , it was velious look. This is all I wanted to provide

Vindi BP did infact have Velious plate 1 graphic. But this came late (around 9 or 10 months after Velious release) check comment 4th Oct. 2001. from http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=5521

""The look of the Chestplate of Vindication has had it's graphic changed to something similar to Velious drops. Yay no more EBBP [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]""

I had totally forgotten this.

Im gona correct myself here, reason for this; I don't think it even existed the first 6 months of velious release. I have done some more research on this bp, and did not find any evidence of it even being spoken of before June 29th 2001. Which is 6+ months after release.

That is the time period where NToV gear got huge stat boosts in addition to Kael drops receiving large boosts/modifications.

More evidence that Breastplate of Eradication currently has wrong textures:

http://www.agonyguild.com/cgi-bin/menus/index.pl

Here you can see that Prybutok won a Breastplate of Eradication

and here is how it looks http://www.agonyguild.com/events/apr.../pryprimal.jpg

Mind that velious textures are off, but as you can see it should not look like umbral or what it currently is looking. You also gotta remember that the velious textures was turned off by default on live and if you had a crappy computer you couldnt have it on, because you would lag to much.

Here are some more screenshots, these are taken from Legacy of Steel archives:

Ogre sitting next to AoW (Very hard to verify this one from regular Champion's armor, but its darker grey):
http://legacyofsteel.net/gallery/200.../aowdead_3.jpg

http://legacyofsteel.net/archives/20..._zone_dead.jpg

http://legacyofsteel.net/archives/20...ursed_dead.jpg

And yes, some screenshots are from 2002 era (Luclin). But it never looked like it currently is looking here on p99. The comment from Allakhazam about it looking like Umbral is false and it has always been false.

This is how I remember it looking and probably anyone els that played in the 2001-2002 era.

I will continue the search for more evidence until this is changed, because the current textures is not classic.

Here is a screenshot of Vorkon (Main tank in Stasis on Prexus Server) with Breastplate of Eradication (Grombok here on p99).

Left picture is Velious era and right picture is Luclin era (Side by side comparison)

I was one of the MT's in Stasis, I got my Eradication BP about ~4 months before Luclin.

Quite possibly a graphic swap? I remember Vindi BP being Grey not black though.

Yeah the Vindi bp was Grey at first, then it got the ebbp look which it has here on p99, then it got Velious textures like 2 months before luclin. So yeah, it got changed 3-4 times.
