Title: Blackened armors
Post by: zagibu on November 17, 2012, 06:49:51 pm
Blackening metal was a technique used to make it more resistant against rust. The metal parts were cooked in dirty oil and developed a black glossy finish. I tried it myself, and this is the result.

Would be a nice variation for plate amors, since they can't realy use the different colors of cloth like lower tier armors do.

Now we can have good knights and bad knights  :)

Edit: Wasn't there also anything like "bluing an armour"?

Yes, but I think it is quite a modern process that was unknown in the middle ages.

did you already have contact with the devs about this? this shouldnt just be a mod, it should be a game feature like being able to buy the black armor for a little higher price

Yep awesome work as ever mate. Keep it up. :)

it would make playing a plated knight surely more diverse.

i vouch for you, pal.  :lol:

Why even higher price... plate is already expensive enough... just make it like the gilded hourglass gauntlets. Same price, same stats, slightly different design.

Add black armor dye as an item we can buy on the website and dye our armor, my time to roleplay a black knight is closing in.

Change the Second mode on 2h swords to throwing instead of lame polearm-mode. Like the Black Knight does in the first fight ;)

make em more expensive and give them a bit more armor. Pretty kewl Indeed.

Haha! It's funny, I was about to try to make the Milanese plate armor into black armor like you did. But I think you did a better job then I ever could. I might've actually left the chainmail on the armor alone though but meh. bump.

If this gets implemented can a recolour of the Gothic Plate pants be included? I had blue pants client side for a while and it looked a lot better than the dirty yellow.
Title: Re: Blackened armors
Post by: Camaris on March 25, 2014, 06:47:35 pm
bump for recolour standard pants + new black armor

Its same as wearing black in High School just to look different,melancholical and "deep". (Not judging here,everyone was a teenager once.)
Sorry but I think it should stay in high school,not in medieval battlefields.
Damn emos ! :D

The emos wear the strange armour.  Blackened armour was really done, not to be melancholy, but to save scrubbing the rust out.  Also it would make you a little less obvious on the battlefield.
