Thread: New engi belt please

  1. #1

    Question New engi tool belt please

    Short description:
    1. I'm engineer
    2. Engis and traders can do TS
    3. They both are using tools for TS
    4. There was a good item in newb SL quests.. here it is. The good thing in that belt - it is possible to store tools in it, as in backpack. I really loved my belt on low lvl trader, but it became useless when i put 6 slot belt on.
    is it possible to make new TL7 (with 6 memory slots) belt based on new Xan belt platform for NOT ONLY traders, but engies too with backpack ability?

    long description:
    I mean my friends always asks me why I have only few free slots in my inventory. It is because I have a lot backpacks with tools and misc tradeskill junk, pet trimmers, etc. I'm already using my social back slot with Notum Threaded Backpack, but why I can't put my tools on my belt? I'm engineer? Engies can put tools on belt! They always do it!
    Please, FC, made smth like an upgraded version Xan's Viral Belt Component Platform what have a backpack function. I'll be really happy if I can put my tools into my belt.

    You can made this belt from already existing xan belt, but engi or trader should combine it with smth strange to get new version (like a gem from Dark Ruins ). And may be add some tradeskill bonus on it, may be like this:

    or at least belt without TS bonus, but a Xan belt with backpack please!
    This will not make engies or traders OP, it is just adds a new useful function to belt.

    tl4-5 are much more in need of new belts, and engi's arn't the worst off for inventory space.

    but I don't really have any reason to oppose this either

    While belt with some TS bonuses would be nice, it is not really needed either. Like Maxisfix said, TL4-6 could use some more belt choices. Maybe even make some other belt choices than the Xan belt, with different bonuses to not have one superior item for most.

    As of inventory space, I got all TS tools on my trader, as well as pile of other gear with me and still got 12-15 free room in inventory. So its all about sorting your stuff efficiently.

    I like this idea though the guys are right about lower TL's needing belts more than higher TL's. I too liked the fact that traders get the utility belt from the SL starter quests.

    I'd like to see stuff like higher QL Belts of Justice around, Dantian Belt of life be 6 slot not 5 and that Belt you can get from the AI quest (Overcloacked?) bumped up to a 6 slot with some extra stats on it.

    Lots of people are saying aO doesn't need this... I think it does. AO needs more items that are around "just because they would be". It needs more items that arn't the next uber assalt rifle, but are just a little something that is nice to have. Non-gameplay-enhancing upgrades to existing items seems a perfect way to achieve this, adding little extras to items that are nice to have even if they won't win you your next fight.

    So I say bump: bump to the origional post and bump to anything that pisses off Harcore PvPers because they see anything that doesn't help them kill as useless. Just because that lot are the most vocal doesn't mean we should bow to their every cry.

    Actually most of them are pvm'ers that think they like pvp because of BS

    Building the game out in items again is a good direction, its part of what made the game really good a few years ago. But there is room for stuff that is useful even if it isn't better then the current items.

    I'd said it is more about usability. it is just good to have tools on belt under your hand. so bump for my idea!

    this, it's a shame to get a belt trhat is not better than totw belt from a quest like that.
    BTW, I'm TL7 and I'm still wearing 6-x slot belt, what I got on same time as i got TOTW belt

    Bump.
    And give Crats a top hat that they can use as a bank and wear in social for when they outgrow their briefcase of holding.

    And give MA's a backpack for special attacks that actually allows you to place them on shortcut bar from it!

    I have read now, multiple times, that FC dev resources are spread thin and that we should not be asking for stuff unless we really need it. I cry cow excrement (toned down cursing...for your reading protection) on that. For two reasons. First, this is my game, just as much as anyone elses and I should be able to ask for the stars, even if I am not going to get it. Second, TSing is the most ridiculous waste of my resources in this game. I understand that things need to be made. I have all the gear to do it and the skills to match, so this is not a rant from a TS hater. TSing is something that serves no purpose for advancement of the TSer in this game, period (yes, now tell me about the billions you made from doing it, while I laugh at you and make more selling pred armor). So, as a bone to the peeps who spend money, time and IP doing something that the devs felt was an integral part of the game, but which does nothing to actually help the TSer advance, give me a belt that holds all of my TS stuff (with gear and tools, it will take more than normal sized bp, in case their are no devs who play TSer).

    Also, not asking for stuff, even stuff we do not need, gets us stuff we do not want...case in point...7x team blockers.

    there should be TSing elements that contribute to Pvm/PvP, like welding a cannon to your chickens head with one bullet (ME and EE), giving it a "alpha", or making the dogs slober more acidic makign a dot (requires chem). shouldnt be as good a a pure PvP engi, but be better

    Big bump for higher QL Utility belt as found in the SL starter quest and the Xan equivalent of it. With engi/trader or even without the profession lock.

    While we're at it, make them visible

    Bump for this one, simply because it would be a fun item (and would save me an inventory slot).

    I'd definitely wear it!

    I'm up for a Tradeskill belt though I'm not sure if making it from the upgraded xan apf belt is the way to go. Maybe something as simple as combining a Profiteer's Helper with a 6 slot belt would be a realistic option for creating this belt. Then you can just copy the mods from the Helper and you're set.

    Making item that most wouldn't even use isn't any way sensible way to go, fc has done it too many times...

    This is a very good idea for both traders and engineers possibly fixers aswell.

    The profiteers helper idea sounds cool.

    The game needs more unique items for all the professions to give them a more unique aspect to their gameplay.
