Four days without a post. I feel like I'm part of a dead thread....but that's just my ADHD talking.
I'm gonna try to continue to collect a MATERIALS LIST and edit armor values as needed.
Ross, do you have any suggestions for the current armor values list as I've got it?

Everybody, post any materials you know of, please! And/or provoke Ross into getting me a materials list

[SOLDIER First]

Aluminum, silicon, tin, copper, bronze (and/or bizmuth bronze, unless they're the same thing), aluminum brass, gold, silver, iron, pig iron, steel, carbon (plating), titanium...

And these are all mostly real.

[Lenglon]

hardwood, softwood, leather, silk, bone, cotton, wool, hide, dirt, paper, water, canvas, tar, rope, ice

[Madman198237]

Thank you. But......
With details, please. I'm way too lazy to come up with decent details myself.
Anyway, I'm gonna go dig up those old lists about armor values and materials.
And here they are. Plenty of spoilers for those who don't want to see greatness average-ness in action.

Spoiler: Armor! (click to show/hide)

Clothes - 1 ballistic
Cloth-Padding Armor- 1 slash / 1 pierce / 1 blunt / 2 ballistic
Leather Clothing - 1 slash / 0 pierce / 0 blunt / 1 ballistic
Leather Armor- 2 slash / 1  pierce / 1 blunt / 1 ballistic
Chain mail - 3 slash / 3 pierce / -1 blunt/ 3 ballistic
Metal Cuirass - 5 slash / 4 pierce / 3 blunt/ 5 ballistic
Lamellar- 4 slash / 3 pierce / 4 blunt / 4 ballistic
Brigandine- 4 slash / 3 pierce / 3 blunt / 4 ballistic
Plate mail- 5 slash / 4 pierce / 3 blunt / 5 ballistic
Ring mail- 3 slash / 2 pierce / 0.5 blunt / 1 ballistic
Splint - 3 slash / 2 pierce / 2 blunt/ 2 ballistic

Spoiler: Materials (click to show/hide)

Tin-extremely soft for a metal, almost useless for a weapon.
Copper-Not much better, but able to take a mediocre edge for a short amount of time.
Bronze-Definite improvement, harder, stronger, but not brittle.
Iron-Ranges from soft, but harder than bronze, to so hard that it's brittle. Hard, medium weight, very common.
Steel-Iron with carbon in it. Most commonly-used metal in the world. Highly useful, many forms. Varies based on carbon content. Hard, medium weight, extremely common, incredible number of applications.
Orichalcum-Incredibly rare, usually made into Essence of Orichalcum, almost a superconductor, fairly high-mid weight, very hard but not brittle.
Adamantine; SPECIAL; hard, very dense, nearly indestructible, incredibly rare, takes a lot of heat to forge, needs an extremely skilled smith, and is hard to forge.
Mithril; SPECIAL; hard, incredibly light, well-nigh indestructible, incredibly rare, requires extreme heat to forge. True Mithril: Incredibly higher purity, as close to indestructible as you're likely to get, even more insanely rare, incredibly light, harder than diamond, can be over-forged into something brittle. Requires extremely proficient smith to craft.

Spoiler: This is the spoiler where I attach meaning to those materials. (click to show/hide)

Materials armor values; or suggestions on the specific qualities a material would bring to a piece of armor. Like uselessness. And infinitely large amounts of protection from boar-spear-skewering. Note: Applies only to metal armor. Obviously.
Tin: Why? Why would you even make a tin armor suit??? WHAT COULD POSSIBLY HAVE POSSESSED YOU?!?!?? I give it approximately 0 stars. Tin is very heavy. Makes a soft, heavy, cumbersome suit of armor. That is also made of a rare metal, just for good measure.
Copper: OK, not super. But at least it's lighter than tin.
Bronze: Yes, finally! A useful metal!
Iron:

I'm leaving now, so I'll finish this tomorrow. Probably. Hopefully. Maybe.

Rurail:
STAB - 7
STAB - 18, 2 HP Holy Damage
STAB - 17, 3 HP Holy damage (B1- 20 HP left)

Daeth:
PANIC/FLAIL/LUNGE: 16. B3 bites the dust!
Mute: 11
Cacophony: 15 - B1 eats 11 HP with 9 to go, B2 reduced to One Hit Point Wonder

Jewel:
Resist Death: Natural 20!
Windup: 18 (Tier 3/4)
FALCON PUNCH!: 14, B1 is blown to dust

Thales:
Grope: 10 versus Evade: 18 (Nope!)

Sylvari:
Quickwipe: 13
Assist: 18 versus Evade 18

Thales:
Grope.2: 13 versus Natural 1

Both:
T8 Dual Strike: Thales 15 + Sylvari Natural 20 versus 15: Servitor is spectacularly redeadified

[Rolepgeek]

Cool.

Though the muting was supposed to be more of a drawing in of power, like how a beach will have the water recede before a tsunami hits.

[Ross Vernal]

Also:

Jewel has gained a level from experience and bonus XP!
Thales has gained a level from experience!
Everyone else in Beta is over halfway there, and should expect to level up early in the next fight

Thales and Sylvari have developed a shared technique - Dual Strike. 12 HP Fire damage + 12 MP Holy damage, single target, 8 MP per person

Now to write the dang thing. Haha...

***

I was rolling to see how much power got drawn in, more or less. The answer was "slightly more than usual but nothing unexpected", otherwise there would have been a damage bonus.

[Rolepgeek]

Ah. Sadface.

In the next fight, then, some sort of near-death experience or other justification for becoming a Seer/Listener and tuning in to the Eternal Harmony mid-battle would be nice.

[Ross Vernal]

Got some alpha posts up.

Oh, you'll definitely be able to. Imagine the noise that comes when your little party siege-breaks.

[Xanmyral]

Well, on one hand, Jewel almost died. On the other hand, he nat twentied that death roll (I thought it was a d100 though, so this may be for something else though). And blew that one wraith into dust (after he got stabbed twice and hit with a massive spell)! I should falcon punch more, obviously.

[Ross Vernal]

It was "fight back against the effects of the Death damage" roll. So that means the arm isn't dead numb anymore, whoo! Not that you need it at the moment...

[Xanmyral]

Ah, so that's what that was. Hey, still, its the first nat twenty of Jewel and its for saying "no" to somewhat-debilitating effect, so I'm happy. Yah can't stop the rock.

[Madman198237]

In other words, "NO DEATH DAMAGE FROM YOU!"

Gotta love updates. It would appear that I have no time for any changes to armor stats tonight, and so, I'll do it later. Apparently, saying that I'll do it tomorrow is bad luck.

In relation to the card game, did Lionan ever get gods selected?

If the character follows a certain God, the results of the draw are subject to change.
