Whats the word on the new armor in the patch?

- Added additional Novice and Amateur armor recipes to Blacksmith and Outfitter instructors.

I'm at work and cant check. Are there actually complete sets of gear? Like copper/tin etc?

One would think so. I tried to log on before work to check, but the servers were still down :-/ But the only Novice and Amateur recipes for armor you could add would be Head/Legs/Chest pieces.

Which would also give a point to having Amateur Dusts of Might and Arcane Spikes. Otherwise, these would be completely useless. Guess it just took a while to get to this point. I hope to test this out tonight when I get home ;)

I wish I could help you blacksmiths out.

I logged in at lunch (level 9 outfitter) and found about a dozen more recipes. Head, arm, leg, hand, foot etc in both light and medium versions. We had maybe 3 recipes for each armor type prior to patch, this seems to have filled out most of the rest of the "noob slots" that are typically empty even after adventuring quite a bit.

I made the Qalian Jute Head pattern, netted myself a grade A 6ac +3 int hat. Figure its better than no hat at all.

Hope the smithies made out with cool toys to make as well :)

Woot this is a good sign at least. Thanks for the response.

Nice! Looks like I will be playing with some stuff when I get home.

Dust of Might is for legs only, gives a proc effect that boosts all stats for 15s.

Dust of Arcane Spikes is for chest pieces only, giving you a proc effect of a DS.

These DUSTS are for Amateur, then POWDER is for Apprentice. So if they didn't put these recipes in, these dusts would have been useless. I guess they were just making us play the waiting game :)

I have high hopes that we can make all tier 1 and 2 armor pieces now, woot!
