I like the new armor but I kind of dislike that you have to pay to have it fixed. I would like it if you had to get a certain item or something to repair it with.

Also I think that 15 hours actually isn't as much as Jagex says it is. I would like 20 hours.

Its only my opinion though...

remember, the game needs to be balanced...

Do the armours come broken or 100% charged lets say?

its a good way to balance it out, at least its not like 1hour of training then having to repair it.. 15 hours is a lot of training.. You can get tons and tons of exp.. But if the armor keeps getting worse each time your hit, then its not worth it.. After about 4 hours it would be worse than dragon armor, 7-9 hours it would be worse than rune armor..

Also this is kinda how it is in Diablo 2, with weapons and armor, since you use them all the time you have to have them repaired, at 100% they are stronger and so on. Although in diablo 2 it doesnt cost 100,000 coins..lol

i think this game is getting worse and worse... all these new updates isnt fair to people who have played this game for a long time... because it just keeps getting easier and easier for noobs, i think this is bull.. i hate this update... and i hate all the other stupid noob helping updates... they all suck :twisted:

and by the way diablo2 sucks too...really bad

In diablo you can get cash easy....

I really like this armour, helps me get closer to my goal of dragon armour.

Dragon armour will still remain the best armour. Remember there is still the dragon full helm and pl8 that has not appear yet. Dragon will own.

bad for some, good for alot. new armor is worth it.. 15 hours of training is actually alot.. and less than 400k to repair it all? thats not bad, 15 hours would easily get me around 2mil+ combat exp in str, att, def, or hp.

By the time you finish using your armor, you would have made all the money to repair it just from drops

Correction on my earlier post. This armour are much stronger tha Dragon and cheaper by hell of alot. Whole set of Torag is only 18 million. Just compare the defence stats for :-

Dragon Full with D Sq is +280
Torag Full with D Sq is +344

I last twice as long at Gargoyle with Torag amour. They hardly cause a dent on me.

Well I really like this update. When I become member (perhaps next month) I can finally buy the dragon armour. I heard they are really dropping in price... I was already afraid that I wouldn't be able to buy them...

rune boots, d sq, whip, guantlets, torag pl8, legs, helm, gets you around 345 max def.,..either way, still good.

375 def if you have rune boots, dragon sq, guants, whip, Torag pl8, legs and helm. (not 100% sure on this one) Cuz remember Crystal Shield is better than d sq. Untill the stats degrade.

fullset is down to 12-15mil now.

**Update is coming, dunno if its today (monday) or when. But the armor will be updated, stats will not be changed, just that the armor will need repairing..

The armor will last 15 hours a combat training, and during that whole time, the stats will not change on it like a crystal shield. After 15 hours it will cost the full amount to repair it i think. We will soon see.
