#1 Feb 20 2007 at 9:27 AM Rating: Decent
Let pool or knowledge about the new expansion and gear available. A couple of questions for those of you who know.

1. Will the same gear be available from the Pirate and Kata vendors?

2. What is the starting price of the lvl 70 gear? like Citizen stuff.

3. How many mission (how long) does it take to get to see the stuff for sale I have done at least 6 solo missions still nothing.

4. anyone seen any level 70 daggers and what is the price?

I don't know much, but if you search "energeia" in lucy you can see alot of the new gear, it appears the ones from katta (citizen or pratorian) are slighlty better than the pirate ones (smuggler or bucaneer.)

katta gear is better than the pirate gear.

there is 2 levels of stuff bought from katta merchants: Citizen's and Praetorian.

It takes about 200 orrux worth of group missions to go from apprehensive to indif which is when the merchants will start showing you the first few pieces of citizen's. They keep adding more pieces until you are ally which is when the entire set of praetorian's becomes available.

Solo tasks (library hiest at least) seem to be about 1/5th of the hit of a 50 orrux group mission.

Prices are fairly reasonable, if you are doing group missions you will have more than enough orrux to buy a few pieces. Praetorians ranges from 700 for a bp on down to 250ish for a bracer. Citizens of course is less.

From the information on Lucy it seem the stuff from Kata is 70 to 75 rather than the 65 to 70 from the Pirates.

I have been doing the wrong faction building looks like. I guess i need to get some groups for Kata and start collecting faction and orrux.

Thanks just the kind of info I was looking for.

The questions I have is:

What additional bonus in stats do you get from the powersources, or are the lucy stats with the powersource bonus?

Are there weapons sold on these merchants? (cause I have seen energian weapons on lucy)

How much orux does a piece of pratorean armor go for?

I spent all of monday doing progression tasks for the pirates, got up to amiable, and guess I need to go to katta now. That zone is very large and I'm not fond of large zones when I don't know where to go. I was very fond of the pirate tasks. Oh well, they were really easy for blue-red mobs. When you can get 3 adds on a pull of 2 (all DB at least) and tank all 5 mobs without dieing you must be in the wrong content, right? Risk VS reward isn't going to scale for crap in this expansion either, sunday I did some tasks that took 4 hours and got less doubloons than I got for 1 hour tasks on monday. Anyway thanks for the heads up on pirate gear being for 65-70 range.
Oh yeah, what is purity on this armor?

Someone in game said pratorean chest is 700 orrux.

Purity is how much benefit it gets from powersource. something with 65 purity would benefit more from the powersource than something with 45.

the stats in lucy are show without a powersupply. There are also 2 different "ranks" of powersupplies on the orrux vendors. one group doing lesser effects than the more expensive type. There are many many types of powersupplies, and their descriptions are very lacking. Many have complained that there needs to be more of a detailed description of what the powersupply does instead of just a "buy and try" approach that you have to do now.

The boosts of the powersupply are pretty good imo. I have a full set of praetorians plate on my cleric and with a powersupply that gives +mana and lessens HPS, it is about a 650 mana gain.
