[2020] T92 Fix coming Monday

I'm going to wait and see how well it is implemented before getting excited. Knocking 5% off the ongoing cost of the armour (especially the range gear) isn't going to cut it... needs to be a pretty big change to make it on a similar level to Masterwork.

Jagex seem a bit conservative with armour balance so I guess we will have to wait and see.

I really hope that the creation/repair/augment process is somewhat logical. There are too many confusing steps as it is.... we regularly see posts were people wore a DTD armour before augmenting it and are now screwed, etc.

As an ironman will it be reasonable to make it and sustain it?

I love Melee as much as the next guy but its getting a bit old feeling forced to use it because its leaps and bounds ahead of the other styles for accessibility.

If it’s not part of the update, could you make it so in the future T92 armour won’t degrade on reaper/slayer? This would be a huge step towards parity with custom fit trimmed masterwork, and even if this requires “custom fitting” elite Sirenic/tectonic and making gloves and boots, I know this would be really helpful.

For one, it would encourage people to try out new bosses they get assigned for reaper, and it would also make the armour partially future proofed when T95 armour comes out, as you still have an option for slayer. Having the double charges of CFTMW would also help.

Something else that may be worth considering is having degrade you dust armour not lose charges in practice mode of bosses.

Of course, I can’t know what the update on Monday holds, but it’s just that melee has T92 gloves and boosts, an awesome set effect, the cheaper repair cost (which is being addressed on Monday) and the slayer & reaper benefit.

Unrelated but augmented ports armour is “worth” 120m for death and wealth evaluator, while unaugmented is “worth” 12m. Additionally, elite death lotus darts aren’t currently keepsakeable I like their regular counterparts, and Sceptre of the Gods doesn’t create a replica for keepsake box while Holy Cithara and Inferno Adze do. Could these also be looked at?
