i know that the developers havent created all the armor sets yet, but i noticed theres a vita suit star 4 recipe that comes from cobalt armor. it's called vita suit deluxe star 4. i dont understand why they are mixing vitasuit with the cobalt armor line but, what about vitasuit star 2. i have the recipe and i dont have anywhere to continue leading it. so i would really like if the developers could at least spend a little ti,e to event a vita suit star 3 recipe. i dont care if its crappy, i just want somewhere to lead my recipes.

Also, a lot of players have been anticipating winmillion which advanced from spur to continue to star 5. so if u could at least put that in your priority box. that would be awesome. oh well i hope the admin looks at this post. sigh

There have been plenty of requests for a 5* spur, so it's definitly on their to do list. However the vitasuit does need quite a bit of love, and both it and the radiant silvermail are missing helmets.

We could reskin the vitasuit 0* as something else with the same health bonus, and use that model for the 3* version. That way it would go Dark Grey, Light Grey, White.

that could work.

going dark grey, light grey then white could work as long as it keeps the red stripe and adds an aura or efect to it like blzz breaker helm or like ash tail then i would accept it as a 5 star. wel thats just me but all 5 star equipment should have an aura that isnt replicative. that would be awsome.

How about Medic aura for the

How about Medic aura for the 5* version? Has red plus signs wafting out of the centre of the armour. And the armour is made a little bit more white, or shiny, if possible.

That is how I lost my medical license

The reason Vitasuit is not its own upgrade line is to balance the health it gives; most will argue it acts as the Scarlet shield does in terms of increased health over defense, including myself, but is the health worth the lack of defense? Ancient Plate set is better for high health and gives more normal, why do we need Vitasuit/"medic"? Some people prefer having health over defense, even if on the frontline it turns out defense would be better; we have no healing weapons, why do we have a "medic" set? So people can have high health. No particular reason outside that. Yes, there are 0*, 2*, and 4* versions of Vitasuit. No, they are not their own independent upgrade line. If there were then the 2* would have to be the lowest star rank, the 0* either isolated or removed. If you want more health grind for Ancient Plate and be content with 5*.

A 5* for the Spur line has been attempted before:

Winfinity

There are other threads, search as you please.

Maybe

about the medic aura, i wish that could be possible, but its not anymore because a game called firefall has already come up with a medic aura. a little more shinier would be cool, i would like that.

you can have a medic aura because more health means more health u can share to revive fallen comrades. its not being a medic, but it's sure being a life saver.

Accessories don't give stats and they are cosmetic. Just for looks.

Healing items outside of pickups and pads have been rejected by OOO.

The vita suit line would then have to be like this.

0*: Proto Vitasuit.+ Proto Vitahelm.

New line either from cobalt 2* or it's own seperate. Not from Proto.

3*=Vita set.

4* Vita Plus Set.

5* Vita Deluxe Set.

"Healing weapon/aura"

To make my point clear: you act as a health deposit to withdraw from, not an active part of the team contributing to combat, there is no active healing skill other than reviving. There is no reason for an aura to have an effect outside cosmetic. I have yet to have a Vitasuit "medic" as part of the party I happen to be in at any time; it may happen amongst T1 fodder, but when it comes to T2+ it has little to no practical use. I must point out the phrase "i would like that" in this post as evidence you are basing your suggestion on personal whims.

I just think a vitasuit 3

I just think a vitasuit 3 star would be crazy in T2 LD. I mean just look at the way they are set up, as 0* 2* and 4*. Obviously the devs thought that having too much health in LD was a deciding factor in making the items. Just think if all the strikers took two or three more hits? Fun

What on earth is everyone babbling about?

@Blandaxt
"about the medic aura, i wish that could be possible, but its not anymore because a game called firefall has already come up with a medic aura. a little more shinier would be cool, i would like that."
So? Just because one game comes up with something doesn't mean another game can't have it too. This isn't Scrolls.

"You can have a medic aura because more health means more health u can share to revive fallen comrades. its not being a medic, but it's sure being a life saver."
How does a graphical effect have any effect on the gameplay of a medic?

@Luguiru
"Healing weapon/aura"
No-one said anything about a healing weapon or aura. We're knights, not paladins
I said MEDIC aura, not HEALING aura, and it was in the same post as discussing the visuals for the 5* vitasuit.

"I have yet to have a Vitasuit "medic" as part of the party I happen to be in at any time"
That's because it's rubbish and is missing a 5* version, just like how we don't see winmillion users very much.

@Mk-Vl
That's true. However, 1* equipment's stats increases dramatically once it hits 2*, and so does 3* when it reaches 4*. The armour gets heavily buffed when it reaches the next tier, and the same should happen with vitasuit 3*. Anyway, wouldn't putting any armour in Lockdown be better than just dusker? The vitasuit also wouldn't have any special defenses - there. Quite balanced.
