Fire AND Ice resistant scripted (nice scripts) maxlight 7x robes

[crb]

This was a tier 5 prize from EG that I've enchanted and whatnot.

some pink cotton robes banded with dancing roltons along the hem

temporary 95% resistant to fire for 400+ fire hits



Virilneus gestures at you.
Some pink cotton robes banded with dancing roltons along the hem partially deflects the onslaught of the fiery attack.
Virilneus hurls a roaring ball of fire at you!
AS: +578 vs DS: +396 with AvD: +70 + d100 roll: +20 = +272
... and hits for 7 points of damage!
Minor burns to right arm. That hurts a bit.



As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the pink cotton robes in your hand...

It has a bonus of +35 from a normal robes, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it is cloth type armor.The pink cotton robes seems to have some sort of unusual protection against damage.

As your song penetrates the pink cotton robes, you determine that it is incredibly resistant to fiery attacks and very resistant to frigid attacks.


The frigid attack resistance is permanent and came with the armor. I think it is around 30%.

I imagine this armor could be good in the shatter where you're dealing with both fire and cold. Or, you know, the cold will help with environmental damage from krolvin invasions, pinefar, icemule, etc.



>anal robe
You analyze your pink cotton robes and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

You can tell that the robes is as light as it can get.
>weigh robe
You carefully examine the pink cotton robes and determine that the weight is about 4 pounds.
Roundtime: 5 sec.


Scripts:



push my robe
You push the hood of your robes back over your shoulders.

pull my robe
You pull the hood of your robes over your head, shadowing your face.

turn my robe
As you turn sharply on your heel, the loose folds of your robes billow about your feet.

spin my robe
You quickly spin about in a circle, causing your robes to rise up in a swirl.

gaze my robe
You gaze piercingly at your robes, mesmerized by the weave of the fabric.

remove my robe
You carefully slip out of your robes, taking care not to drag the fabric on the ground.

wear robe
You carefully slip into your robes, letting them fall regally about your body.


Yes, the alteration sucks, but alters are easy. Pretty nice robes otherwise.

mb 20m

so... you expect these to sell for almost half of what 10x veniom hcped robes sold for because you had your ranger add temp resistance to them.

lol Virilneus

Good luck on 20m.

I've sold plain 7x robes for 11m multiple times.

These are nicely scripted, which I think should add 3 or 4 million, the temporary fire resistance is 1 million.

The real value though is in the permanent cold resistance. Do you know how often permanent resistance adding merchants appear? I think the last one was in 2006. Their resistance service always included a vulnerability as well. Do you know how much they would have charged to add cold resistance to 10x hcp robes? A little north of 40 million silvers, and they would have included lightning vulnerability on it as well.

Do you know how much it costs to add resistance with PPs? Trick question, it isn't possible.

Permanent elemental resistance like this is worth at least 5 million silvers. Cold is especially valuable as you can get dinged with it a lot as an environmental affect. Depending on what you hunt, these would offer better protection than 10x hcp. That is a fact, don't blame me if you're ignorant of game mechanics.

Plus, while you're likely never be able to to add permanent resistance to those 10x hcp robes, this robes are right now further enchantable if you have potions, or with pps, and you CAN pad them with PPs, or by winning droughtman, or by gostahl's dicing, or by any other padding merchant that comes along. You could also have them flared. You can't add permanent resistance with any of those methods. Permanent resistance is in fact pretty much the rarest form of armor buff.

So ya, I kinda think they're worth 20m.

Maybe if you're smoking fucking crack you thought you sold 7x robes for 11m multiple times.

Let's do a little inventory of Google to see what some various 7x items have sold for, i'll pick the first two because I'm lazy, but I figure considering how many MAers poop them out every couple of months they're probably going down:

7x brig 8m
http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=56697

7x brig with resistances and a vulnerability 6m
http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=50166

Exaggerate much?

How about the dumbass alter? -2m

Do you know how often permanent cold resistance drops off of critters?

You you know how much it costs for class? You can pay for school my friend, but you cannot buy class.

Or you just you know... use 602 off a scroll like a normal person and become completely immune to elemental effects and well as less damaged by a variety of elemental manuever attacks? Don't blame me if you are ignorant of how game mechanics actually work, instead of how you try to bend them to work.

Maybe we can pass a petition around and get it fixed though.

Like every other set of robes that drop off critters with permanent resistance.

I found a set last year of robes with permanent resistances hunting, and I barely hunt.

Apparently other people have too... (http://pshops.lichproject.org/items?s=some+flowing+yellow+satin+robes)




So ya, I kinda think they're worth 20m.

So ya, I kinda think I will bid you good day sir.

You realize of course I very successfully merchant items, right? I mean, mr. 9 posts, schooling me on this, okay, you realize I kinda have a lot of coins as proof. You know, hundreds and hundreds of millions. There are always poor people who bitch and moan, but the price eventually gets paid. Just in the last year I've easily done over half a billion silvers in transactions.

Now, just because people sell shit for cheap, as in your shitty examples here:


7x brig 8m
http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=56697

7x brig with resistances and a vulnerability 6m
http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=50166


does not mean everyone does. I've sold, for instance, 3 sets of kiramon scale brig, two resistances and a vulnerability, at 7x, for 13m. Three times I did that.



Exaggerate much?


Only about my penis.



How about the dumbass alter? -2m


An armor concealer can be had for less, as can an alter for that matter.




Do you know how often permanent cold resistance drops off of critters?


Not very often. When you do get a critter resistance drop it is usually slightly to disruption or something, which isn't very valuable, and it is usually tied to some other modification which makes it not enchantable.



You you know how much it costs for class? You can pay for school my friend, but you cannot buy class.


I'll keep that in mind.



Or you just you know... use 602 off a scroll like a normal person and become completely immune to elemental effects and well as less damaged by a variety of elemental manuever attacks? Don't blame me if you are ignorant of how game mechanics actually work, instead of how you try to bend them to work.


And you can always use 202, 507, 102, whatever off a scroll as well to get DS, and yet people still pay for DB items... OMG THE LOGIC CONFUSES ME!

Really? Moderately resistant to disruption, unable to be enchanted, is worth the same to you as enchantable very resistant to cold?

How about an actual comparison:

This set of 4x very cold resistant, 5.5m
http://pshops.lichproject.org/items?s=some+arctic+leather+resistant&commit=Search

This set of 5x very fire resistant, 5m
http://pshops.lichproject.org/items?s=+some+crimson+silk+robes+&commit=Search

Then there is this armor:
http://pshops.lichproject.org/items?s=+some+doubly+thick+pyrothag+brigandine&commit=Search

Which is 7x, has three resistances, and is for 31m. I think its a screaming buy at 31m. In your brain a 7x is worth like what? 6m? So Teegan, another person who knows nothing about gear value, is asking for... 7m+ per permanent resistance?

I tell you what, if I had a character in brig who hunted teras I'd buy that armor tommorow. Then again, I'm not poor.

See, let me explain something to you. Elemental resistances are very very valuable because certain hunting areas of the game issue attacks predominantly in one elemental or another. There is no area of the game where most attacks are disruption, or disintegration. But there are areas where they're mostly fire, or cold. The bad manuevers you can't just spell tank to avoid anyways.

I'm sorry your unenchantable disruption flaring robes suck.

monks bump

[Showal]

Lol anal robes.

[Reltov420]

Selling some 7x robes without a stupid alter. Only 11 mil! /threadjack.

[Lord Orbstar]

I have a nice set of 4 pound, 4x shimmering blue robes with Permanent Modera te resistance to Fire, Electricity and Cold. ya. all three.

Virilneus, how hard was it to enchant with resistances on or is it the same as normal? My plan is to enchant them to 7x or more if i am lucky then HCP pad them. Monk Master armor. they will be worth....alot.

oh and threadjack bump. :thanx:

[the quick]

this is great..just laughing at this thread

[Menos]

Was going to green rep you for having reasonable prices, but I have to spread it around first. So bump it instead.

very nice robes, resistances do not interfere with enchant at all, and you can add ranger resistance on top of permanent resistance, so you could add nature or steam to yours.

I like Shaft's avatar. Opinions are like assholes, some people have one an others two. The value of a item is what will be paid and what the person who owns it considers its worth.

This is the problem with the country, people have lost thier minds. We all should respect each other even if we don't agree with them.

An I really like Shaft's avatar

monk bump. Both 7x sets of plain robes I had for sale in pshops sold (for 11m and 12m). This is the only 7x set I have left for sale (or anyone has for sale, AFAIK, no more in pshops).

[Franknozly]

in OP, you said in shatter, you mean in scatter. That's all.
