    I noticed fullplate got set to decay. Do people with custom fullplates need to worry about that?

    No. People who had customised fullplate before the change got theirs made resetting and non-decay.

    And you won't understand the cause of your grief...

    Greetings! In regard to issue 71346, it appears that a small bit of coordinating needs to be done to properly introduce lacquer, so please stay tuned for it's inevitable introduction! For now, it's sadly unavailable!
    it's available, just in small quantities in two select locations.

    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

    Yep, have already spotted it while out roaming for steel.

    Me too, and it is unbelievably expensive!

    Just spotted this in my score:

     Smith Rank                : Blacksmith (0%) 

    Hope that's not accurate, though, because I've forged about 200 things since getting to blacksmith.
  • SenaSena
    I'm also at Journeyman Smith (0%), and more than half my forging was after reaching journeyman.

  • TrevizeTrevize
    Seems the % was added but it's not working yet.

    Still, I like the fact they plan to add it there.

    Blacksmith (0%) : Yeah this can't be working yet. I've forged a ton too since hitting this rank 3 RL days ago.

    Looks like they also changed your ability to see descriptors in future rankings (and everyone without armoursmithing can only see apprentice now...which makes selection of descriptors a bit difficult for customers requesting custom armour). 
  • BluefBluef Delos
    And they re-inverted the descriptors. I wish I'd know this before I started forging (Announce on changes, pls @Tecton)?

    I use letters for descriptors in forging and for charges in heraldry, for clients (limited of course to the style said person is looking for).

    I noticed that. Glad I caught it on the first forge and only had to re-forge once item. Still, much better this way, more intuitive.

    A use for adds! You want armour? I can make it in the following fashions:

    I don't think having every single armour and weaponsmith to put up an ad is a great idea. It will just clog those up. It's also annoying and inconvenient to have to send a letter to every single person who inquires about smithing. This change favours those who can display their wares in shops.

    Who said every single armour and weaponsmith had to? It is not like ads are getting much mileage in the first place.

    How would adds be clogged when you're only looking at a specific one at a time when a forger directs you to one so you know their capabilities?

    You're right. If the 20+ smiths each make an individual ad with their own list it won't make the ads cluttered and annoying to peruse at all.

    Messages seem fine for showing people what's available. It might be hard sending a list of every option if you're a master blacksmith, but if you can narrow it down (only the ones for the item they want, only the free/cheap options, only the ones that don't cost steel, even the ones fitting a particular style/aesthetic (although that would have to be done manually), etc.), it should often be reasonably brief.

    You could also carry around a journal as a sort of shopping catalogue you can hand to your clients, which lists every descriptor and its costs and other details. Or an ad. There are plenty of ways you can make it work.

    Loki's tear change is great, thank you. I might actually make a decision on tradeskills now!

    (That decision may well end up being all of them)

    Seems like a Forging List Known and Forging List Full would cover it easy enough.

    While I personally prefer leaving things to discover, we have been moving more and more towards full disclosure (in no small part due to @Sena :stuck_out_tongue:) so I wouldn't have any problem with it either.

    That's because it was switched the first descriptor into the second slot, which was a bug.

    Also, I'm glad that now everyone can't see all the descriptors, and you should only be able to see descriptors up to and including your current Blacksmith rank. It's just clutter otherwise since you can't forge them.

    It was motivation for me personally. I looked at all the things I was going to be able to make and thought, "Oh man, I need to rank up." I don't feel as strong a desire anymore. Guess I should have copied the list while it was available.

    I can't think of any reason any sane person would accept any other armour.
    Get your hands in the air and back away from the descriptor.
