the tooling doesn't, but i'm very sure that the other things do give rather awsome effects. _________________ A bright-eyed Thekko Ku Kalla dressed in a dapper sailor suit takes to flight and careers through the air toward the Modan Kucho and slams into him!

The tooling is just for looks, we all want to look purty don't we?!
Though the other items do add some very nice additions to player-crafted armor.
Spline:
The articulated spline is a contained kit of pins and glides that improve the flexibility of armor.
Zdathi spikes:
A Darjuan invention, these cruelly serrated, razor-sharp spikes jut at peculiar angles from a suit of armor, proving a potential menace to an opponent that comes too close.
Armor keel:
Looking like a U-shaped fin, the keel stretches along the torso and back of a piece of armor, greatly reducing water drag.
Storage cavity:
Comfortably sealed inside one's armor, the storage cavity is capable of holding small items. _________________ ~Well behaved women rarely make history~

I should also add -- upgrades are only one-per armor, will not provide a benefit if you're hindered in any way by armor (excluding splines and cavities), and are only useable on armor pieces that cover the body. _________________ Mickey Brunner

is there a difference between putting spikes or whatever on say, armor, as opposed to tunic + vambraces + greaves + tasset?
or by body is that upper body chest/back?
also, is there a difference between someone with crappy skill attaching them versus someone with ultra-awesome skill?
seriously, cool additions. i'd buy spikes if i had money right now, which is why i hope siva takes that stuff to echak or whatever, heh. _________________ A bright-eyed Thekko Ku Kalla dressed in a dapper sailor suit takes to flight and careers through the air toward the Modan Kucho and slams into him!

Answering these in a slightly different order, so as not to get ahead of some responses.
Quote: |

Anything that, in some form, covers the torso.
Quote: |

You wouldn't be able to attach them to vambraces/greaves/tasset (per above), but even if it were possible, the effect of the spikes isn't a stackable/groupable thing; it either has its desired effect from one item, or it doesn't. _________________ Mickey Brunner

The spikes don't seem to be working on my armor.
After Mellie put them on and offered the armor to me, I accepted and got hit with an error message.
Taking it out to kucho and letting them pummel away at me didn't have any(noticeable) effect upon them.
I'll give it another go a bit later.

yeah, i'm not seeing the stabbity effects either.
Code: |
This armor is fashioned from material the equivalent of hard leather jazeraint. It was crafted by Yaru Dex, 25th Icorae, 251 NC. This armor has been upgraded with zdathi spikes. |
Code: |
[Abandoned Park, Narrow Path]
The stream to the south is visible now. The vendure is even thicker, no doubt due to the increase in nourishment in the soil.
You also see an eosheai.
You notice exits leading north and southeast.
A white chovn follows you.
You begin to advance towards an eosheai.
An eosheai begins to advance towards you.
You continue to advance on an eosheai and are now at pilum range.
You continue to advance on an eosheai and are now at melee range.
You stop advancing, since you're about as close to an eosheai as you could hope to get.
You lie down.
You think of Trevor Rage in a tutu, let out a blood-curdling scream and faint!
You are stunned!
Roundtime: 3 sec.
Striking swiftly, an eosheai rakes a claw at you. In short order, he lands a superficial hit to your chest as you fail to dodge the attack.
[You are balanced, in great shape, well rested, stunned, and prone.]
You shake off the stun.

You are stunned!
Roundtime: 3 sec.
Moving deliberately and carefully, an eosheai rakes a claw at you. He lands a superficial hit to your back as you fail to dodge the attack.
[You are fairly well balanced, in great shape, well rested, stunned, and prone.]
You shake off the stun.
Featuring a fluffy body and equally fluffy tail that is nearly as long, the eosheai appears to be completely harmless.
You feel much better. |
did the same thing with an asapi a few times, too, and got nothing. _________________ A bright-eyed Thekko Ku Kalla dressed in a dapper sailor suit takes to flight and careers through the air toward the Modan Kucho and slams into him!

are the spikes a pierce-damage version of all those mage shields (and can it happen even if things miss at melee)?
i hope you're happy, now, you've made me go and start wearing crafted armor. the advantages are too many! ![Wink](images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) _________________ A bright-eyed Thekko Ku Kalla dressed in a dapper sailor suit takes to flight and careers through the air toward the Modan Kucho and slams into him!

Sort of; SENSE the armor. Note that this includes all melee attacks, including things like knockout, assassinate and backstab. There's no resist on the spike damage, so you've at least got a fighting chance of leaving a memorable gash as you go.

No.
