What if there was a fire and shock resistant armor for skelly alchemy line. Would'nt it be cool. So basically instead of purple and grey,its black and blue and the horns and are on the side and the shield is shaped like a giant skull. More info coming later. You may not like it but I do, and your free to post your own suggestions to make it better if you want. And if it sucks it sucks.

This suggestion is half-baked. You could of started out the suggestion with lots of info, so this wouldn't be half-baked.

And why should it be for the armor only?

OP

Dude, fire and shock resist on a shadow armor will become OP (Making valkyrie/fallen sets obsolete). Unless of course the armor has very high poison and freeze weakness + undead penalty. Nothing comes for free in SK, especially defences... with good stats there will bond to be weaknesses. If you are one of those pay to win palyers who want an OP weapons that win the game, then you have come to the wrong game mister. Because you can't buy skills with cash, you earn it with eperience.

Status resist explained:
Elemental armor-mostly resist to shock and fire
Piercing armor-mostly stun and freeze and a little bit of poison
shadow armor-mostly resist to poison and freeze and curse

The one exception for shadow armor is the fallen set. It has max fire resist with med ASI, sounds good right? But the thing does comes with big penalties, it has damage penalty on fiends and if you managed to get cursed while wearing fallen, the curse will LAST 40 SECONDS and all your item slots will be locked up.

Great bonus comes with great penalties. (nothing is free in SK(a bit like RL)) If you do want gears that actaully have a TINY bit of a edge over others, you will have to go through shadow lairs(AKA 3 levels of 'hell on hell' mode of spiral knights), even then, the advantage of those gears are negatable.

Poopy attitudes

Full details, the helmet with have the horns on the side and the armor will have spikes on the back of it going down, and the shield will look like a giant skull will flaming eyes on it. It will be called the Vile Skelly Suit or the Arcana Skelly Suit. Still more info coming soon.
It would be nice to have some other shadow armor with different resist other than freeze and poison.

When people ask for more details, they're asking fir stuff like stats and balancing mechanics, not how it will look.

-.-

Balance, you need to make the gear not OP and acording to your shield describtion. The shield's design is comepletely over the top...
Bad suggestion is a bad suggestion, if you try to add shock and fire to the shadow weapon, it will rener other shadow gear(in fact all the shadow gear) obsolete. So plz don't break the game like chaos set did...

I hate to see your effort goto waste but it is what is... great bonuses comes with great penalties and unless the vile and arcana skelly have some sick undead penalties and freeze/ poison weakenss, it will never be implemented into the game.

What if

Okay this is description,so what if it was just freeze and fire resist and had a fiend damage penalty and it has a little bit less shadow defense on it. The resist would be as much on the dread skelly set. It would have a attack speed low and its level 5 armor. Is this good enough, probably not though. More info will come later, maybe.

Suggestion forums don't work that way...

People in a suggestion forum are mostly here to review your suggestion, not to improve it for you. You are the one wanting X, you're the one that has to make X work. We can tell you what doesn't work, but we'd be damned if we work on your suggestion you, not we, you want in the game. Most here do not see a necessity for this set to exist, therefore their suggestion to improve it would be... not doing it at all.

In other words, yes, we do expect you to be creative and actually work on your own suggestion, not be a raging lazy bum that expect others to do the hard work so you can be satisfied with your overly fancy and overpowered piece of armory.

We don't need it, it would be broken, and people have the opinion that it would be unnecessary and broken. It's not their job to sell your idea. Hell, you even said yourself that "if it sucks it sucks".

Now either improve your suggestion or die typin'.

"Bye bye, Billy!"

If you want Shadow Defense with Fire and Shock resistance, then may I introduce you to the Divine Veil and Divine Mantle.

Given, they have no Normal defence, but if you're just looking for Shadow defence with Shock and Fire resistance then that's more than enough. The Divine Veil even has a Medium Damage Bonus Increase VS Fiends.

As for your idea, if it had freeze then it would be a bit redundant since the normal Skelly line already has freeze resistance. The ASI is just no; there's already enough gear that lets you have a lot of ASI (especially now with the Battle Sprite perks). And the penalty against fiends wouldn't be very noticeable since most people would end up that set on Firestom Citadel, which doesn't have that many Fiends. Maybe make that a penalty against Undeads instead.

Edit: Removed last paragraph because Kazujaxyz ninja'd me with a much better explanation as to why people should think their stuff through before putting it on the Suggestion forum :P

Okay, challenge accepted.

Start off on 3 star scary skelly set, you can craft it to either poisonous or firery skelly set.

poisonous skelly set 4*
A suit made of venomous skeleton, these skeletons insulate electricity well, how ever the residue of poison does affect a knight's performance
Have the same normal defence as sinister skelly (4*) but lower shadow defence.
The suit will have medium undead penalty (low on each piece)
It will have med shcok resist (low on each piece)
And a very high poison weakness (med on each piece)

Vile skelly set 5* (the upgrade of posionous skelly set)
Have the same normal defence as dread skelly(5*) suit but lower shadow defence
The suit will have very high undead penalty (med on each piece)
It will have very high shock resist ( med on each piece )
And max poison weakness ( high on each piece )

The vile skelly set will be suitable for shock fiend arena, one of the WOREST ARENA in the clockworks. But this can be blanaced if the arena contains a handful of undead or even deadnaughts.

P.s. how old are you... srsly, if you are one of those 10 year old who rages on the internet... you may consider reading the wiki 100+ times like me and come back and then we may be able to have a logical, gentlemen like conversation.

"I said if you guys don't like it,you could post how you wanna make it better"

Like I said, it would be too OP for FSC. To make it better, you completely change it or it doesn't get added to the game. quite frankly, we don't really need this.
