As of 12 August 2020 at 7:13 AM AEST (Sydney time) , Steven had leaked out the dwarven armour, revealing freshly crafted lvl 10-20 crafted leather armour set as below:

and asked for the images of the some of your favourite armours you've achieved in your favourite MMOs and discuss in the Discord with pictures.

While this has achieved the results, however everyone in #aoc-discussion has been going nuts with the armour spams in the Discord, drowning out any other message.

Please discuss the armour images and spam the images here if you want. Intrepid will definitely read this thread.

As Steven already knows, Lineage II did so many things right.

i dont like dwarves and i dont like this armor set and I don't like his face XD

but here are the best i could find all over the internet, please watch them as i scoured over 9 thousand photos to select these

Songcaller

Cant find any decent scale mail (Medium Armour) but Scale Mail is my favourite armour. Especially female scale mail.

Mykkala

I have a few that i like, but i do like a more feminine slim, light, elegant look. I have a few....

Note: These are all Cloth sets so no they won't protect
From AA:






From ESo:. Found quite a few looking through the Eso armors that i think fit with the theme. They look similar, but i like the slim look to these, not too bulky.















From Skyrim:

FFXI PLD Artifac. I played up to the 3th expension and the level of grinding it took to get stuff or just lv up... took me a year for my first 75(max lv).. i feel what is nice about the old ffxi and armor was that a lv 35 piece could be best in slot due the stat it give.. im missing that in mmo now.. its alway base on ilv so you don't have the feeling to get 'that' piece one you reach a certain lv. Btw i can't post the image but here's the link

I like that dwarf armor. Practical, muted, a little bit of flair in it's protective pieces. Not a total eyesore and definitely worthy of some low to mid level gear.

I agree, it’s awesome but practical and not overly ornate. And very dwarven.

When I finally completed my paladins last class for my armor set I went nuts fist pumping the air

EVERY SINGLE ARMOR POSTED IN THE DISCORD AFTER STEVEN ANNOUNCED

Do enjoy.

Ok, let's start with eso. I game a talk a lot of shiet about, but I like what they did with appearance customisation (expect that it became too ez.).
I feel very sad for the animators of that game. The devs completelly butchered all combat animations due to the glitchy animation cancelling feature.

These are some random assorted images that I like what the characters are wearing

Line][Age

notice how in a couple of pictures, the same armor changes looks when used on different races.
Also in some pictures you will see items on the group.
These are real items that appear if you are lucky and u kill a mob or raid boss. Whole items, on the floor(gear, potions, gold, mats, other consumables).
Never have I seen better loot icons/system in any game.
Also, it should be clearly visible which gear is the highest, based on design detail and projection of strength.

Btw change the title to something more clickbaitish: "Steven asks for your favourite game armors - post pics"
If it takes off, rename to megathread.

I know there arn't any "martial artists" .. yet... but always liked how armor looked on monks in EQ.

Hmmm, I'll give it a thought actually.

From my first ever MMO Shayia. This armor in particular, especially the design of the three long flaps that move freely with the fourth shorter flap in front for running room, has always been my favorite even though I haven't played Shayia in 10 years.

Camwon

I think Warhammer had the best Dwarf armor.

This thread has nothing on chat. Chat has like 1000+ armors in it.

Chat wants to have fun with friends. Devs might find it easier to check a thread for influence, IF directed by Steven. Do we want to help the development or chat all the time?

Imagine you are told "go look for those pictures in general disco chat from 6 monhs ago". Meanwhile the chat has scrolled to infinity.

Well steven did say to put them in chat...so I assume he will look where he said to put them...

Dont follow words blindly. See the essence of the task and try to do it as best as possible.

I think this is an important request. It MAY affect the look of all characters in this new mmo.

If you want to treat it as public relations gimmick, feel free to ignore it's possible importance and go to discord to socialize. Idk. I just think that armor looks are extremelly important in video games.

Btw I am not having a go at anyone.

I am praying to lolth daily that I can make Empyrean or Tulnar look as Drow as possible.

Any dark elf armor from l2 TBH...

I LOVE the aesthetic of this armor on the dwarf. Well done Steven and Co.

Dynasty Platinum Plate armor set + Warrior's helmet fashion item looks amazing on my Lineage2 orc.

I tend to like my armors a little flashy, but I have to say the armour you are showing off here works really well for the level and race.

Here is a little album of some of my favourite armour sets, that I have collected in Final Fantasy XIV
