Boots and Gauntlets

[Mhorham]

Whats the deal here? Why are they not craftable within the first one or two tiers of Tailor and Armor Smith?

As an armor smith I cant make a simple pair of boots until full plate. I can't see any reasoning for this. And why can our tailer make shoes but not boots? Who want to wear a stupid pair of shoes with a full set of banded armor :confused:

Think about this Logically, A pair of boots are Tailor Made in IRL and Takes alot to Rework the leather and so on, Imagine doing that with Metal, MUCH MUCH harder to achieve. If your really in need of some footware go to Black knights and Camp some bootzors

I don't think a pair of boots is going to be any harder to make than elbow protection. Its all just leather with plates or scales attached for the most part anyway.

I am glad they finally added leather armor for lvl 50 tailors at least. That was a long time coming. But it is still odd that, as an armorer of modest abilities, I can not make a pair of matching boots or gauntlets for all the other complex pieces I make.

yeah but if were talking rl..If your skilled enough to make mail then you should be able to make boots.As for taliors.They have been doing it for yrs lol.They really need to rethink the crafting system.They need to start off with cloth to leather to mail to plate.Everything in that crafting tree until that crafter can make it all.Then they can upgrade to the next lvl.Im sorry but if you can make cloths then you should be able to color them.Add dye(money sink).And on armor they could add a flux or something to change the color.There are so many ways they could change the crafting to add depth and it needs it.
