Hi,
I had a level 19 orange (mod-able) greaves.
I found a level 23 purple mod-able leggins instead,
they were both heavy armor, both - when empty had the smae armor value (32 I think),
and when I transfered the mods from the old leggins to the new purple leggings - the final stats of both were exctly the same.
so beside visually looking different, what's the deal?
why are the difference in the level requirement?
why one of them was orange, and the other purple... ?
I don't get this system...
Also -
I see a lot of diffident mod-able armor (on GTN) - with different item names, but they all has the same base armor value when they're without any mods.... so how come some are considered better then the others?
thanks!
