or can we just summon our own armor?

-Munch-

Preventing damage entirely would be too much. Reducing damage taken by 1/3 or 1/2 might be okay.

I don't know about it being the domain of any one guild, such as Paladins or Warrior Mages. Anyone can already achieve this if you have the right armorsmithing techs.

> I would rather that the spell gets completely rewritten to actually be useful though. The only armor damage that is an issue to me is shield damage. Body armor isn't a problem.

As I've said before, I'd prefer the spell to remain the same and Armor to be rewritten to make a buff to armor ranks actually useful. On the surface of it, the spell looks great - a buff to 4 skills, which is most of a tert skillset! One of the best tools in the WM arsenal is that we have buffs to all 3 defenses, and in SoI, no less - 2 of which are tert. If Armor gets fixed, I don't want to be looking back and saying, "Man, I wish I had the old YS."

The other side of that is that Armor prime/secondary means very little right now outside of the Paladin plate thing. An armor tert guild is unlikely to get a big improvement to the way they use armor before that issue is addressed.

IMO, if you've got ideas for armor or the YS spell, the best thing to do is post ideas for what armor ranks can DO in the Combat folder, and how WM's can plugin to that.
