Pointed Hats are a lot older than that.

I'd like to use an occasion and ask for clarification on a few things for me.

Greatrobes get pretty much the same, if not better stats than chain mail.
On top of that you can get two enchantments (can you choose from all types of protection? Magic, electric, fire, cold, poison...?).

So they seem superior to chainmail.
Unless their wound protection is worse somehow?

Can someone enlighten me?

Chainmail coif have better stats then robe and rest if chain armour, around splendor robes.

Splendor is waaay better than chain. Greatrobes is just a little better, but can be proofed. The main advantage of chain is that it lasts a lot longer.

Ok i forged few sets of chain and scale mail and checked shops for greatrobes and here is what i vgot:

I have found such:

scale helmet: 36/51 44/42 43/43
scale jacket: 33/48 46/39 44/45 46/42 46/39
scale leggings: 45/43 35/46 46/45

chain coif: 46/49 52/60 51/59
chain shirt: 46/46 39/42 35/50
chain leggings: 42/47 48/48 42/52

enchanted greatrobes: 36/52 54/36 44/50 46/51 44/55 47/43 46/44 51/47 45/49

So as you see diffrence aren't huge. But cost of them is. Here are avarage stats of those that i found and comms need for public designs of armours.

scale helmet: 41/45.33 3 leather 3 steel
scale jacket: 43/42.6 5 leather 5 steel
scale leggings: 42/44.66 5 leather 5 steel

chain coif: 49.66/56 3 leather 15 steel
chain shirt: 40/46 10 cloth 35 steel
chain leggings: 44/49 5 leather 25 steel

enchanted greatrobes: 45.88/47.44 prices in shops 10k-18k

So my questions are:
Should chain armour be only a bit better then scale armour and cost 4 times more?
And why chain armour is more expensive then greatrobe? they have almoust same stats, if greatrobes not better, and greatrobes can be electric and magic proofed?

I belive that chain armour should have stats around 60/60.
What you all think about it?
Any word from divine?

EDIT: ok i made topic about it here http://lusternia.ire-community.com/index.php?showtopic=6017
