DirtyBirdie Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 How does this even make sense when the War Hero gear DOES carry the set bonus? So i basically just spent all that time/mats/money crit crafting a full set of BM, spent about 80k each for 5 augments, spent 50k on the schematics, bound said augments to myself in gear that is now USELESS which means i will have to pull the augments out and spend even more money... Lets do some math 50K schematics + (80k x 5)augments + (~40k x 5)augment removal + ~50k mats = ~700k Where in-game is it mentioned that this is the case/why would there be a valor requirement on orange gear that is essentially the exact same as the stuff you can get @ level 17? So you can run around in a chocolate vanilla swirl robe (sage gear)? That is some brokeass brain dead logic if you ask me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycao Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 They clearly said that the set bonus for BM gear is in the shell and WH is in the armoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComeAndSee Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Where IN GAME did they clearly state that? They said it months ago. I thought it was common knowledge by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitsinni Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Where IN GAME did they clearly state that? When you start THE GAME to get IN GAME click PATCH NOTES. The idea was never to buy the orange gear isntead of the regular WH. It was stated it was after you buy the regular WH and want an elitist color choice on your armor you can buy it to have the different color armor then transfer the mods.

DirtyBirdie Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 ... Im still not getting a response that states exactly WHERE in the game, currently or in the past, that it tells you this info. And why it would have a valor 60 restriction on it if its just a vanity shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the advantage of having augment slots seems alot more inticing than color choice... fine "patch notes" is somewhat valid i guess. Still seems braindead that one would work and the other wouldnt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a nice flow chart for you to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveandDieinLA Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hey man, just think of it this way: You are going to need all that orange gear anyways, especially the gloves and boots, which can only be crit crafted as BM of WH shells. When 1.2 hit I got a full crit crafted set as fast as possible, and I ripped out all my battlemaster stuff to put into them. Yeah I didn't have the set bonus, but like you've said, the augments are what its all about. The WH gloves and boots are both failry cheap, and with them you can get that 2 piece bonus back quick.
