    That is pretty strange. I didn't even examine it closely enough to notice the apparent addition infraction (the 4 extra armor points). Well, it is still unofficial. Someone may have made a mistake.

    I was thinking that, without the 35%, it would have a base armor 35% lower and a bonus armor 35% lower... but I didn't check other armors with this type of bonus to see how they typically display.

    Edit: After checking the Defender's Belt on the wiki, the way the ToH is shown in that picture just doesn't make sense. The way they display the bonuses on the Defender's Belt does make sense. Oh well, I guess it'll get sorted out eventually.

    Remember this?
    This is why we want the base stats back.
    And there is no 100 base armor. You can't see base stats since they introduced that loot compare crap. You can see base stats only on unidentified items. And that is not the case with this cape.
    These are the stats.

    base armor : 30
    enchantement : 180
    total : 210
    + 35% = 283.5

    just an educated guess :)

    That is correct. There is no base armor 100. It is 30.
    This is why they removed the base stats. So the players would have no clue what are they giving money for. :D

    It doesn't solve the problem that you need to purchase the item before you do this, but you can see and fogure out the base stats from the upgrading table (where you upgrade with the glyphs)

    Read my post here ... and see if any differences in both pictures.
    Before R134 all base stats were transparent and no one needed any additional gadgets and scientific skills to figure out what are the base stats of an item.

    I read that the first time it came around. I agree with you that the base stats should be visible.

    From what I can tell 139 is again a pure fluff patch. Achievement tables? What about those of us who have killed every boss in game already, some hundreds of times, and the thousands and thousands of monsters/mobs we have killed. Do we get a cookie for that?
    Even the stellar gold contest is now rigged. Granted the prizes are what they are and the winners will be grateful because free stuff is always nice, but we know which guilds will gain the most points and we know who the strongest players are on each server who will be the top point earners.
    The only distraction in game that makes it worth logging in now are the Jesters. 20 mins with them and you've got 4 hours worth of farming done in gold, cot's and andermant income. The rest of these patches have been just useless for the endgame player base.

    I'm surprised no one is discussing that you can now buy knowledge with andermant.

    Yes ... I am surprised too. They are discussing about anything ... but they(not all) don't realize what effect buying knowledge books would have. It is a shame! Because after this R would go live ... we all will end up crying. :mad:

    EDIT: And i don't even care about crappy ugly looking cape.

    Honestly the Knowledge books purchase doesn't bother me as all the benefits of knowledge are comfort and quality of life elements. So if someone wants to buy their mount skills it does me no harm. They had already watered knowledge and honor points down when they introduced the mentor bonus.

    But of course you are saving money. :D
    Mount skill is just a side effect. Now players from day 1 will have +30% HP and +30% base damage. That is "comfort and quality of life elements" too? Not to mention that now gold is not needed for rising knowledge levels.
    For mentor bonus you have to have more experienced characters in order to get it. Now every noob can rise the knowledge tree from day one. That is so sweet! Ahhhh what a balance of pvp.
    That was the only feature in this game that one had to work hard for it ... even older P2P players had to work for it. Now everything is based on money.
    "if you got the money, honey, we got your disease".

    So much for trying to fix the overpowered twink problem in game. As a P2P I have to say that selling knowledge is just wrong and we can only hope that DSO rethinks it. Balance? Where? Never going to happen in any game aspect and this will just make PvP even worse than before at the low levels.
    But in all honesty if this comes into game, I will not farm for knowledge books to get any future new knowledge, I'll buy them. I just hope that it doesn't get that easy.
    Now the post about buying honor makes sense lol. Until PvP gets balanced...(NEVER going to happen) then why not let the masses buy it? Better than DSO losing players out of PvP frustration. But then we'd all have lvl 1 Field marshals then wouldn't we? But then wouldn't that make balanced PvP matches???
    I really wish knew what direction this game was actually going.

    Now the premies get free honor lol, so the whole game direction is actually being turned into a pay 2 win. I didn't mind spending on the game personally but refused to lock into a premium acct. But it looks like I may have to. But I'll bet that the cost of Premium goes up in the near future too, just wait and see.

    With R139 they enable buying honor points. Seems like they desperately need medical help.

    Yep, game design seems to have been taken over by greedy babies or greedy retarded politicians (just an observation, not aimed to hurt any feelings) because there is little coherence or sense in the recent changes, but a lot of money sinks apparently. Actual issues are seldom addressed, devs claim one thing and then do the exact opposite, reasonable community wishes are mostly ignored... From what I've read, the new release will deepen the chasm between f2p and p2w but it's advertised as a release which will even things out. I won't even start on the last few releases, the obnoxious gear compare thingie or the last event, colossal fiascos in my opinion. At leas don't advertise the game as f2p, come clean and say it's pay to win because it obviously rewards cash more than skill or dedication.
