The DarkLight Raiders

[Anonymoose]

Really? I thought the Darklight armor WAS the gear they wore. Afterall, in 1.0 the gear was found in the dungeons themselves, the same places the Raiders visited. Though, in 2.0, the Rev Toll merchant sells Darklight, is it the stuff they wore or the "stylized" armor?

Now that you mention it, it does sound like a pretty big assumption; I should change it back, I guess. It seemed like the best way to reconcile the fact that 1.0ers beat CC/AV and got Darklight, and then 2.0ers beat CC/AV and get nothing of the sort, whereas Rowena's apparently has enough to go around that she's set up a tent in the middle of Mor Dhona and that the darklight pieces aren't even the same pieces they used to be. SE's worked pretty hard to avoid direct retcons, so I figured that assumption was a happy medium for now.

However...

Ethics aren't really Rowena's thing. She gets her rare wares from spelunking adventurers and basically plays the Trading Game until she gets a pile of Allag artifacts to ship back to her mysterious Ishgardian benefactor. The relic armor (iLV90 AF) seems to be part of this benefactor's personal collection, but for now, yeah, let's just go ahead and say the Darklight was taken from the corpses of dead Darklight Raiders... though why Sibold hasn't come out there and made a scene about it, yet, is beyond me...
