Game Update: March 14, 2010

New Armor System. To see which professions can use which types of armor, read: help armor


Here are the basic slash, thrust, and blunt damage absorption percentages for a full suit of armor of the given tier:


cloth leather chain plate
Tier 1 5% 10% 15% 20%
Tier 2 7% 13% 19% 25%
Tier 3 9% 16% 23% 30%
Tier 4 11% 19% 27% 35%
Tier 5 13% 22% 31% 40%
Tier 6 15% 25% 35% 45%
Tier 7 17% 28% 39% 50%
Tier 8 19% 31% 43% 55%
Tier 9 21% 34% 47% 60%
Tier 10 23% 37% 51% 65%



There are 6 core armor locations. Here are the percentages of the above absorption rates you get from each location:


head - 10%
shoulders - 20%
body - 30%
hands - 10%
legs - 20%
feet - 10%




If you have armor that existed before this recode, you need to do a combination of typing "fix slots", removing your armor, and putting it back on. Once the "score" command shows you are getting some slash/thrust/blunt resistance from your armor, you should be good to go.


Fixed a bug with the trade command that was not allowing the second trader to add items to the trade.


Fixed a bug that was not letting woodcutters earn skill points beyond 10.
