    Since they are constantly adding newer stronger armor every few updates, given half a year later after adding new armor styles, people would once again ask for more. it'll all get burnt up in creating 1-3 new armor sets then nothing else can be done for doing events/logins, and since half the server mix/match this stuff for lockstyles, its odviously working in terms of people wanting them.

    Its not that i disagree in wanting new armor styles, honestly i get bored with some of the combos i have for lockstyle somedays, however i personally don't mind seeing the wacky combos others do with the event stuff that come out

    Its the same with trusts, they said they only have a few slots left, and that the AA trusts will be some of the last for it, altho it might not fill it completely, it'll bring it closer to the final number, i just hope the last ones aren't completely useless ones tho

    Armor is far more technically complicated than weapons. Weapons don't have to have different texture files per race, while armor has to have different race/gender versions AND weapons are static models while armor has to be able to deform do to movement. The vast majority of items released since RoV was completed have been reskins, not new models. They've already explained the whole PS2 devkit issue, so I get why they are limiting themselves to the rare new cosmetic weapons. Think of it this way, if they were "real" weapons, that would mean that the source would have to be appropriate for it's level which means that it would be limited to players (who are most likely) already participating in endgame content. Going with cosmetics gives everyone a fair chance to get it if they care to lockstyle it.
    Personally, I'd be happy with some simple palette swaps instead of straight copies of existing gear when they add stuff like new Ambuscade/Omen/Su3 gear.

    IIRC, after the AA trusts, there is room for 1 (maybe 2?) more trusts in the dats. That's it. :x Personally, I'm hoping for Prof. Schultz as a Light Arts SCH to fill the gap of solid healing trusts. I think it would open up the UC system to allow us to choose someone other than YO/Apu if they did this and would be more interesting than just about any other character choice I can think of. His combat-capable model is already in-game (SCH Limit Break) so it would be a matter of making only the AI. ^^ Can anyone else come up with any characters (with existing combat animated models) that have had a presence in-game since Dynamis? XD ("Schultz Stratagems")
