discuss, cuz i think there are split opinions bout this matter
If it was me, would be using the level 30 Adamantium Chain. Gains a few points in imbue over Mithril Chain, and has 5% higher bonus. More expensive too, of course, and we degrade faster, due to higher con.
Was that what you were referring to ?

Yes it was, and thx for your view.Darzil said:
I made a set for a player, i charged 1.3 p for it, but if i am to make more sets, i would like ~2p - would that be a reasonable price? i made mithril improved mail af 62 (just saw that its alot more expensive than adamantium chain) but isnt it worth it? also for the looks?
Feedback plz (im new to AC, so im fooling around)

2P for a thidranki armor is a bit to much? i usualy buy af 31 armor for my thidranki chars, 99% ofc.
last time i bought i paid 200g for chain armor, level 31 99% full set.
give enough points for imbue and it aint all too expensive!

Ok, just done a bit of numbercrunching for you. They are ordered in Imbue value, as all will top out at 48AF at level 24. Note Adamantium armour has a 5% better chance to be missed (unless this bonus has a level cap - I've not seen testing either way). Time to make is an estimate. It includes Tailor/Armourcrafter time, but not time to buy materials from merchant. Cost and time are average times.
Obviously you'll want to add profit onto this in order to make your time worthwhile you making it. You can see that MP is about five times the cost to make, but ten times the time to make. I can't justify making MP on those grounds, as people won't generally pay more than 5x the amount for MP at Thid level, only at top level. You can also see that Mithril MP Chain/Mail has less imbue (and bonus) than Adamantium Mail, at higher cost and time to make. If you're really pushing the boat out, then MP Adamantium Mail is 1/3 price of MP Mithril Improved Mail (Manish's favourite), with better bonus and same imbue.
Looking at these, Adamantium Chain or Mail is the best bet. Mail costs about 80% more, has one more imbue point, and looks better !
How you work out your profit is your own business. 50% markup on Mithril Chain 99% and it used to fly off my merchant, and that was months back. You may want to work out a price per time deal, especially if you're going for MP and want the money. Personally I'd only try to make 99%, and just mark MP's up a bit when you get lucky on them. Profit on top level MPs is higher, and they only take twice as long to make.
