COOL!
Think there will ever be house guards in the Golden Gift Boxes?

Amazing art but looks like it's a ranged Lance. Any other versions for non Rangers? D:

Anything for us FD rangers?

Does this art give us a hint of the variations for Paladin? If so, I'm thinking at least fire and earth are going to be covered.

@above: Lance bows! Instead of regular arrows, you shoot Lances

Those do look interesting, but I'm a little disappointed we're getting a second week with no Paladin or Dragonlorn.

Just for clarification, what's the distribution of items here? Based on the image it looks like 3 helms/faces, 3 armors, and 1 weapon for the total of 7. Is this correct?

A ballista? I'm all for it. Make it a highly inaccurate weapon that pays HP to shoot since it'll be strenuous to use.
Or just throw it, though you can't just throw a weapon and call yourself an Archer.

It does seem that the Dragonlorn Keep releases won't be finished by the end of summer. That's a bit of a shame.

Interesting! The "champion" helm's gold color seems to coincide with the Golden Holy Armor, which Hollow said will be revamped when the advanced armors are released.

I could be reading too much into it but this seeks to suggest that "Crimson Holy Armor" might also be another advanced variant we'll see in the future.

For mega luls just pick up the entire ballista and throw it at the enemy

That is the exact kind of absurd humor I'd expect from an AE game. It's sort of like using a blunderbuss as a melee weapon.

I want one. No more do we have to choose between horseback archery or lancing. We can do both at the same time.

I for one definitely support lance bows. I guess it would have to have a full inaccurate lean (heavy and whatnot) with more emphasis on STR

 We are going to need a little more time to get the cavalry armors ready, so this will be a Friday release.

Lance bow sounds like a fun fantasy weapon to make. I will definitely keep that idea in mind!

Lance bow eh? Are we by any chance talking about a variation/different type of the Gunlance? Just with a bow/crossbow instead of gun installed in it? If so i too am all for it

Hey Hollow, there's a typo with the new Lances. The Fire and Water lances say they unleash 'powerful LIGHT attacks' even though they are Fire and Water versions.

Also, why do the lances have magic toggles? That's.... unnecessary IMO

^I guess because paladins are magical knights. If anything it should be a melee/magic because lances are still melee weapons and you are swinging them into enemies, not throwing them.

(standard) Paladin Rider

FD Light armour. Has access to:
Summon Steed: Chase! - Weapon-based skill, 2 hits, gets eleComp to cost, uses CHA for stat bonuses. Locked to Light. Deals -35% damage and inflicts Element Vulnerable (to Light, x[1 + 0.25*hits connected] damage, 2 turns). The monster can resist with a save at a +0 bonus (inflict with CHA/LUK, resist with END/LUK).
Righteous Inspiration: Weapon-based skill, gets eleComp to cost. Two hits; the first heals HP equal to 1/2 of a standard skill, gets *0.85 for auto-hitting, uses STR/DEX/INT as appropriate for a weapon attack, with damage scaling based on how much HP you've lost, dealing -50% damage at full health and +75% damage at 0 HP. The second hit is locked to Light with a +10 BTH lean.
  • Summon Steed: Can this get a [Damage]/[Armor Lean] at least to make it a little better? I guess it doesn't matter since it's locked to Light so you could technically use any weapon you want. Since we don't have 100-proc no-drops, you can use that as a 'last resort'
quote:

Crimson Paladin Rider

Crimson: FO Fire armour. Has access to:
Summon Steed: Charge! - Weapon-based skill, 2 hits, gets eleComp to cost, uses CHA for stat bonuses. Seeks between Light and Fire.
Righteous Retribution - Weapon-based skill, gets eleComp to cost. Seeks between Light and Fire. Damage scales based on how much HP you've lost, dealing -50% damage at full health and +75% damage at 0 HP. Has a +10 BTH lean.
  • Very straight forward with a Health based skill. Interesting numbers though, -50% damage to +75% damage. Seems fairly cheap due to EleComp towards cost
quote:

Champion Paladin Rider

FO Light armour. Has access to:
Summon Steed: Trample! - Weapon-based skill, 2 hits, gets eleComp to cost, uses CHA for stat bonuses. Seeks between Light and Energy. Deals -35% damage and inflicts Daze ([50*hits/attempts *LIGHT resistance]% chance of not acting, 2 turns). The monster can resist with a save at a +0 bonus (inflict with CHA/LUK, resist with END/LUK).
Overwhelming Light - Spell-based skill, 2 hits, seeks between Light and Energy. Costs *1.4 as much SP, and deals +25% damage.
  • In the game it's an Energy armor and even has resistances that are better for Energy.
  • Should the Daze be based off of Energy resistance too then?
Overall, new gimmicky armors. I like that it's got a CHA skill option as well as a non-CHA so it's usable by all builds. Only thing is, if it uses CHA for stat bonuses, does it mean that the cost is 490 SP at PLvl 153 like with other CHA based skills? (prior to EleComp)

Armors are missing the Rider tag... when doing joust training it says it's not a rider.

It's worth noting that the Paladin Rider armor's skills are pretty much direct clones of existing Paladin class skills, but with additional element seeking.

Pure speculation at this point, but this definitely seems to me like a way for them to test out the eventual "advanced" class variants. I'm guessing that we'll eventually see Fire and Energy variants of the Paladin class armors once the class revamp is finished. (Makes some amount of sense, too: Fire and Energy are allied elements to Light)

Hollow, can we see more armor with custom color options? Would that be too time consuming to implement
You'd do FashionQuesters a huge favour for this
