Monria VU 4.3 - Armour Updates

[Eugenio Anhithe Wilde]

Armour Face Masks

• The Armour facemasks have been converted to helmets and the 3d model updated.

The Horns of Z'agol

• The Horns of Z'agol should now be facing the correct direction.

'Horned' helmets

If you are lucky enough to obtain an unlimited helmet, you can now hand the helmet and horns of Z'agol in to Pinthas to obtain a 'horned helmet' combining the qualities of both.

Note

We are currently investigating a way to detach the horns from the helmets so that they can be reused for the different Elder god helmets.

Thanks

I like that the Cthulhu face guards were converted into actual helmets.

Here are some pics of Shadow wearing her Malgar (Shoggoth) helmet and harness.

The red eyes really compliment my daily outfit Really cool update. Now I can't wait to get a UL helmet so I can merge the horns with it!

 

[Leshrac KAINE Necros]

The Monria armor we released last year comes in both (L) and (UL), and while the (L) pieces are dropping all the time, the (UL) armor pieces have yet to be discovered.

The helmet for each of the 4 sets of armor are the same and textured to coincide with their respective mobs, the stats for each the same and relate to their respective mob.

The helmet has Cthulhu-like facial features to blend with Monria's Cthulhu-based storyline.

Are the UL pieces not dropping due to rarity (no one has triggered the RNG), due to a condition not being met (players haven't met the requirements to trigger them dropping), or shut up Julien, that's a Trade Secret?

Hey Julien ... the UL armor is a very rare drop, and unfortunately, I can't say anything beyond that. There are 4 pieces of the UL armor in the game right now because we gave them away at our St Patrick's Day event last year.

The person who has the helmet is busy trying to collect the rest of the chapters because when he does, he will be the first to be able to turn in the helmet and horns to merge them into one helmet piece and retain the 3% reload speed.

Are the horns still avatar bound? And if so, will the upgraded horned helmet also be avatar bound?

First of all, pardon the bump of old VU-thread. Second, I actually don't know, but I'm going to assume it's still bound, since it would make no sense in any way if it wasn't. unfortunately. A tradable shade helmet with horns would be a very high value mid-level item and I really don't see MA allowing that

 

[DarkMoonEnigma]

The Monria (L) and (UL) armor, as well as the Horns of Z'agol are tied to the Monria official storyline. While the armor is tradable, the Horns of Z'agol are not tradable and are bound to the avatar. We appreciate the value of what a horned helmet might bring, but acquiring the Horns of Z'agol is a process that, while frustrating for some at times because the chapters are a rare drop, it's an achievement that many get quite excited about. They can only be merged with an UL Monria helmet, which is also a rare drop, so acquiring one of those takes time as well.

We don't want to reduce an already high-valued item (not necessarily associated with a ped value) to something tradable and take away the value of the hard work that players put forth to achieve this goal.

There are other examples in the game such as the Viceroy armor tied to Arkadia with a multilevel process to collect ingredients in order to get the armor pieces, and then a process to upgrade the armor. Every planet has their special items that have great relevance to their theme. As a small moon, we do our best to also bring significance to not only elevate Monria's lore, but to present options that tell our story as a destination, as well as a welcoming community.

Your suggestion is appreciated, and thank you, but for us, it's not always about creating content that brings the highest bid for an item ... instead, it's something tied not only to Monria's storyline, but the continuation of Monria's evolution that honors and recognizes how we get from here to there.

Everything we do as a team is with a well thought out purpose.
