Anyone aware if loot gen/random loot armors come in this color?
- Thread starter Helswrath
- Start date
just checked, will need to right click and open in new tab to get the image to work, will work on fixing it as well.Doesn't need to be this exact same style, but bulkier armor would be preferred. This is my first time posting, so apologies if the image doesn't work. I'd also be looking for a head cosmetic to match, ideally a simple crown that wraps around the head.

Gravekeeper’s armors from Lamordia have a good bit of purple in them.
You can view all the named item cosmetics in the game, including coffers, expansion bundles, and store cosmetics by category on this page:
Lootgen is something you’ll have to look through as you get them.

I picked out some purple armor that kinda fits what you're looking for.
What do you think?
You can easily check how Named Items look on the wiki, but with randomly generated gear it’s not listed there, so it’s hard to know if certain color combinations even exist, let alone find them.
It’s not a random generated item, but there’s also a purple armor in the DDO Store.

The problem with lootgen is that visually the original can be radically different from its own mirrored version. I have some lootgen docents that have very cool visuals when equipped, but after mirroring they become mundane garbage, alas.

Not sure if you were asking me, but if so, I’m on Shadowdale.
They’re all pre-U14 unbound items. They’re pretty rare now, so I can’t give them away, but if you tell me your character name I can mail them to you to borrow.
You can just send them back after you make a copy.
I also have a few other unbound pieces, so I’ll add them to the old armor thread too.
I added a bit about this in the old armor thread too, but there are some lootgen items that don’t copy correctly with mirroring.
People have mentioned cases like Fist Mk I getting worse, but it can also go the other way and end up looking cooler.
I think Stonemeld Plate was one of those before it got fixed.
Every time Lammania comes up, I buy a bunch of mirrors and test things out.
I can’t really do that on live since mirrors cost money there.

*sad fashionista noises* I'm on Thrane but I appreciate the thought. I've been trying to find one like the second from the left for awhile. I keep getting either the wrong color, wrong under armor, or its just the neck piece not the rest of the upper layer accessories. In my efforts I did end up with an awesome one like in the far right of your pic though:
This is what I've acquired so far:

Hey Aelonwy,
I check for those changed visuals in the new system from time to time too.
The kind of plate mail you’re looking for can still show up on higher level armors like planeforged or mountain plate, but for some reason they often have fewer parts even though they’re supposed to be high level.
It’s possible that a full set version with all the parts exists in the current system, but I don’t remember ever seeing one.
That said, I did recently get two full plate mail pieces with all the parts.
I’m pretty sure they came from a Red Fens quest reward, I think Last Stand, and a Harbinger of Madness chain reward.
Marketplace Sharn quests are too low level, so they almost never drop full plate with all the parts. Red Fens feels like a much better place to farm.
Since that look wasn’t particularly rare before, it might be easier to find what you’re after there rather than relying on the new system, especially if you don’t need to trade it to another account.

I really like the middle/third one, if you're on shadowdale what would you want for it? Happy to glam it and then send it back if that's fine with you.I picked out some purple armor that kinda fits what you're looking for.

Alright, I can mail it to you so you can glam it. What character name should I send it to?
It’s pretty hard to get these days, so I can’t really give it away, sorry.
Just send the original back after you’re done copying it!

As a die hard Tourney Armor aficionado, here's a couple other color and underlayer combos to peruse. I can't get your initial pic to load so not sure if they're what you're looking for, but I think the Purple/Black combos look pretty cool. If you're searching for more I find that Half-Plate is where most of them drop, although the 2nd one is a Planeforged Full Plate (Level 32).
(Also why do my Imgur pics post with the weird border? Anyone know?) (Edit: Fixed, thanks!!)

I picked up this purple armor recently too.
I like Tourney Armor-style gear too, and I’m currently wearing this kind of Tourney Armor cosmetic.
With a Black Sash flowing and wielding an invisible Great Sword, this black and silver shining Tourney Armor looks insanely cool.
When you use Imgur’s “COPY LINK” button on the top right of an uploaded image, it gives you a framed link, so it shows up like that.
If you right-click the image itself and copy the image address, you get a direct image link, which is why it looks like what we’re seeing.
Basically, it just means we’re using different types of links.

are you on thrane and willing to lend out that 2nd set?
