Time To Discuss Barbarian Cultural Armor

What you are seeing in this image, is banded mail. Though it may be that some other armors have the exact same graphic.

Banded looks the same as chainmail: both have the fashion style of "Chain" (see https://wiki.project1999.com/Banded_Mail and https://wiki.project1999.com/Chainmail_Coat).

Again, that's based on Magelo (ie. live) data ... but again, AFAIK Verant never changed either Banded or Chainmail (or pretty much any other armor) after Velious.

You tell me to clutch my pearls when I kindly advise you don’t appear quite as civil as you claim.

You advise me to look back on how well behaved you have been to over posters and your first reply to someone you tell them to stfu.

I appreciate you feel you could have acted much less civil, you are likely right, but take a moment to reflect - you’re trying to push the project into changes that go against it’s core and you aren’t being entirely nice about it either.

Do you really think this behaviour is going to help achieve your goals?

If you think EoWinter is too rare then you need to find evidence toward it dropping more commonly in era instead of mouthing off against people trying to set things straight or help you.

The devs seem unlikely to give a second glance to a thread making unsubstantiated demands full of pages of ranting, don’t you think?

I guess you dont read? I was "uncivil" only to those who were uncivil to me first, and that is the only reason, so I am confused as to why you are only focusing your unwanted attention on only my comments.

This is a classic case of an instigator being ignored while the person responding to the antagonist is the one being harrassed. So, ill just say this to you too. STFU.

jimjam's one of the nicest and most level-headed people on these cursed forums.

seeing someone get this mad over barbarian cultural armor is objectively funny, but maybe you should take a step back and realize it's a bad look for you.

or not, we dgaf lol

He may be nice, but that doesnt mean he should stick his nose into where it doesnt belong or act as some community moderator. I recommend you follow your own link and click yes.

You seem to forget that you started this whole thing: Jimjam asked a perfectly reasonable question, and you attacked him for it.

You’re talking about a race of judge dredds

Lets review shall we?

1. The question he asked was more like an assumption than a question. Assuming that I said something I did not say or imply. And my response was appropriate and civil, pointing out that false assumption in a subtle, but mildly humorous fashion. Harmless.

You’re writing was very ambiguous mate, just asking for clarification you looneytoon.

In his next post, he resorted to calling me names.

3.

Perhaps I've taken it too personally, but I didn't find your discussion so civil.

After name calling me, he accuses me of being the uncivil one.

Now im getting angry at his little insults, and responding accordingly. So I guess, random person, im saying the same thing to you now as well. STFU or stay on topic. <shrug>

It’s a public forum. I’ve played a barbarian shaman both in 2000 and here (and takp) and like to use the everfrost / permafrost area. I’m committed to the idea of trying to recreate classic not some Frankenstein update of it. I’m sticking my nose exactly where it belongs.

Standing up for myself without being aggressively confrontational is not acting like a community moderator. I’ve given you a button to press if you don’t want to see my posts in your threads.

Back to the point, so you’re saying you think Essence of winter should be added to the everfrost icegiants as nonclassic custom content? Yes or no?

Lava rocks (dwarf cultural?) drop off much lower level mobs in lavastorm as well as the Naggyb giants. Perhaps, if we are changing EoWs as post classic custom content they could be put on mammoth type mobs. They’re peak wintriness imo. The calfs nicely match the lavastorm mobs levels too.
