Dear OOO, please make dual Piercing/Shadow armor and helm so that Elemental weapons are viable in Lockdown.

Topic.

First of all, I have weapons of all types, so no, I am not whining about being unable to use my weapons. I play exclusively T2 right now, and in the beginning my Striker loadout was Twisted Snarble Barb/Fireburst Brandish/Nightblade/Antigua and my Recon loadout was TSB/NB/Shadowtech Alchemer Mk II/Antigua. Soon my Recon became my Striker set as well, as I literally had no use for the Elemental sword. Heck, I barely even need Piercing. Nightblade tears through just about anything―Jellies, Wolvers, Gunslingers, and Cobolts are the most dominant armors in the metagame right now, and if I see the odd Shadow defense armor, I just pull out my TSB.

Making ONE good set of Shadow/Piercing (NO NORMAL DEFENSE) armor would counteract this and make Elemental and Normal weapons (almost) as viable. Please make it useable in all three tiers. This game is best when a variety of weapons are viable. That's just not the case in Lockdown right now, and I wish it were. Most swords are either pure Normal, or Normal/Elemental, and at the same time almost all armor is like that as well.

Thank you.

I can't speak to the

I can't speak to the metagame, but there is a Piercing/Shadow 5-star armor listed on the wiki. No corresponding helmet, though, and the damage bonus vs. undead is presumably not much use in Lockdown (at least at present).

We have a 4* and 5* Piercing/Shadow mail armour, but that's Tier 3, not Tier 2.

I also think it's a shame that the variety doesn't strike until you hit Tier 3. I haven't played much of Tier 2 Lockdown, but from what I'm hearing now it doesn't sound all that.

The only one is silvermail at

The only one is silvermail at the moment. I really think there needs to be allot more shadow armor in general. Demo is low elemental, wolver and gunner are low peircing. angelic is balanced shadow and skelly is high shadow, but you can't find much low shadow high normal armor in teir two.
@Antistone
Do you think they should make vs. monster bonuses = additional damage points of that monsters weakness? Like med feind bonus = low or med extra peircing damage on all your weapons? At the moment crown of the fallen is useful becuase the feind penalty is nonexistant in pvp.

Also, +1 for radiant

Also, +1 for radiant silvermail starting at 3* as opposed to coming from drake scale mail, AND having a helmet that starts at 3.

I think it would be cool if

I think it would be cool if they added some sort of radiant silverhelm but gamesrock22 has a point. If you equip supposed radiant silvermail and helm, you are less worried about GF and piercing (yay!) but now DA kills you in one hit :(

Monster Bonuses

@DrLequack:

There was an idea in this thread about the bonus vs. monster abilities that I thought deserved more attention.
