Hi there, my name is Soral and I enjoy the hell out of fine business suits. That's pretty much the entire reason for this topic. The only other disclaimers for this is that this armor operates under the preconception of it being token rewards from an obviously yet to be developed Devilite boss which obviously would require more effort than the armor itself to implement. Also, while stats for the sets themselves will be outlined, the primary point is to make suggestions on the visual designs themselves. That said, allow me to proceed to the actual outline of the armor itself.

3 Star
Helmet: Dingy Derby

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "A dull, weathered looking hat that is likely to have more monetary value than its wearer makes in the typical work week."

My general picture of this item is a typical, likely violet (to match the color of the fodder tier devilites), fedora, perhaps with a prismatic rim to suit the player's personal color.

Armor: Dingy Daywear

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "This uniform, while providing solid performance enhancements, certainly paints its wearer as not much more than a working class stiff."

This I imagine as sort of a tattered and coffee stained suit, not all that great looking. Standard fodder devilite again as my color suggestion here, with a prismatic tie and a white undershirt (which would remain the constants throughout the upgrades).

4 Star
Helmet: Spiteful Fedora

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "A finely tailored hat that is both stylish, and ideal for head protection in conflicts with unruly employees."

A less tattered and finer looking version of the 3 star helmet, perhaps in the color of the Yesmen Devilites to signify the midling position of it in the upgrade tree.

Armor: Spiteful Suit

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "A classy suit that clearly is maintained by someone who can afford professional dry cleaning."

Here would basically be a more cleaned up version of the 3 star armor, again in the color of the Yesmen and with the prismatic tie.

5 Star
Helmet: Fiendish Fedora

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "Only the most stubborn executives can handle the power that comes with this magnificent headwear. To climb this far up the corporate ladder and stay at the top, you need a hard head, and a harder hat."

A fine, pure black/midnight fedora with of course, the prismatic rim. Truly, the classiest of all hats.

Armor: Fiendish Formalwear

Stats: Normal/Shadow defense, Global ASI Low, MSI Low

Description/Appearance: "Made from the finest Griever silks, this is the creme de la creme of style, and displays of corporate power. You'll feel AND look superior when you're telling your secretary to fire that broken cog down in accounting."

And this would be the ultimate evolution of this glorious attire. A black/midnight colored suit (perhaps with optional dark gray pinstripes), a white undershirt, and of course maintaining the prismatic tie. Also, an aura accessory slot for this armor would be ideal.

And that's my outline. Thank you for reading, and if you're a dev reading this, I hope you consider passing this concept along to your art guy :)

I love you Soral <3

Awesome idea, needs devilite boss :)
We'll call him "The CEO"

I got a suggestion for a token name : "Labor Trace"

Great designs man, we should come up with weapons too :)

Boss Idea That Took No Time At All

Yes, you fight the boss in phases!

Phase 1: He's invincible while sitting behind his desk, and he's constantly calling up other devilites to tell them their status/work quo and give them talks on their work ethics. Stuff is constantly rolling off of his desk, so you have to keep dodging devilite TV's, angry paperweights (which you can throw at the boss to cause him to inflict damage), and other little knick-knacks. I'd like to see something where you make a /rude gesture at the boss, and laugh at him to tick him off. That'd be neato, and like a secret way of fighting him!

Phase 2: His desk has fallen over, and you fight him while he chases you down with a flaminig hot cup o' joe that is so hot, that it can catch you on fire! It can speed you up though, so deliberate on getting a mug to the face if you want a temporary speed boost. Most devilites get their daily dose of caffiene this way, so if an unarmored devilite can, then so can an armor-clad knight!

This one has only him and smaller devilites. There is a window at the north edge of the stage which you NEED to break! The Boss is completely invincible at this point, so you have to get the boss to throw coffee at the window in order to melt it. Watch out, because if coffee is thrown at a devilite instead, it'll cause it to go berserk!. Afterwards, you need to combo the boss (which you still can, but you won't deal damage at this point.), and it'll become stunned. Keep attacking and demote him from CEO to *Splat!*

My only problem.

When you get to 5 star, you're expecting a higher evolutionary trait.

For example: Ash tail to Skolver/Snarb goes from Low to Med, or even From low attack to Med Speed for Vog.

Maybe the Movement speed low should be restricted only to the 5 star?

Ah, about that.

Here's my idea for a Devilite Boss (complete with relevant concept work); but you're welcome to come up with your own anyways.

As for suits, I have concepts for them, but at the moment they're only costumes.

Very good idea, but I agree the MSI should only be on the 5*.

Also, the 5* hat needs Pit Boss horns.

So very classy

Supporting. All. The. Way.

Well, though I think the stats could be fixed up a little. Just global ASI med without MSI would be good enough on the 5*, especially since it doesn't have any status resists. As I mentioned in chat, MSI should probably stick to the Mercuries.
If you still really think the MSI should stick around, the ASI should be downgraded to either guns or swords (preferably guns so we can go tommy-gunning all day), and maybe the Merc sets should be upgraded to MSI meds.
