I think tons of people would have a problem with that because they're way too uptight. I think any guy running around in an armor "dress" would sheerly be doing so to because they wanted to or to be silly. I say bring it! Either way we'll have happy people!

You know who your talking to right? I have literally to much moonmetal for my own good as a freedom player, as some of you PvPer would say. Nothing is stopping me from crafting it right now but it doesn't make sense that less than 1% of the players can craft it. The fact is, this is one of those updates that hardly anyone can play with. You can argue all you want about why moonmetal should stay on PvP; however it's literally the strongest material in the game for weapons/armor. Not all of the freedom players are going to stick with iron weapons. Not all of us are in the dark about the benefits of the metal. Make it more readily available for players. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a bug that theoretically allowed more than 5 affinities in one skill, not a total of five Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
