I understand the need for it to have constant upkeep as a price for having armor. But going out a few times and having to find 4 more ingots of metal cause some super warg hit you with a griev suuuucks.

This black and white bicolored helmet is made entirely from bear hide and is
held together with sturdy stitching and metal rivets. Although it is brittle,
the helmet itself tapers down either side of the head with fixed plates, and a
noseguard comes down over the face, protecting the eyes. It has an integrated
leather suspension with an adjustable leather tie to alter the internal fit of
the helmet. It has an adjustable leather chin strap and a buckle to keep the
helm affixed to the head during a melee. Overall, it is shoddy armor, loose
fitting and held together piecemeal. It is clearly the work of a novice.

Tiamat wrote:Also, after suggestions from people, I have decided that $wquality will impact Deflect. At its best, it will give a +3 bonus. At its worst, -3 penalty. So players can decide to try to get that exceptional weapon (given their skill is high enough), for more moneys.
I would also like to explain how $wquality is determined. Currently for pquality, you are rolling a 1d(your skill) five times. For oquality, you are rolling three times. The code then takes your best skill roll out of these and matches that against the skill requirements per quality tier.
Pquality is:
exceptional - 40
well-constructed - 35
solid - 30
uneven - 25
shoddy - < 25
Oquality:
exceptional - 50
well-constructed - 45
solid - 40
uneven - 35
shoddy - <35
RNG will be a factor moreso for oquality, so keep this in mind before you devote a lot of manhours to hoping for an exceptional roll, if you're only a Familiar-level weaponcrafter. Exceptional quality means that you're either very lucky or you're well above the skill requirement needed for that tier.

Doesn't a blue skill check mean I'm well above the skill requirements? I understood blue skill checks to mean that it's so simple for you to do that you won't gain from it nor will you fail the check.
Or maybe I just have really, really rotten luck. Every time.

This gambeson is tan and has been sewn from deer hide that is supple and soft to the touch. It is a full, one-piece gambeson, fastened at the front with three leather straps. It has sleeves to protect the arms, a high collar to protect the neck and its length also provides some protection to the upper
legs. The armor itself has been put through the currying process, dressed and finished as well as oiled, giving it increased tensile strength, flexibility and partially waterproofing it. Overall, it is shoddy armor, loose fitting and held together piecemeal. It is clearly the work of a novice.

I believe the word we're looking for is "curing".
