Swordmaster Armor overview (from live server) + artwork + video

[Haskr]

Hello, I found this awesome armor list on Imgur and wanted to share it with everyone else.
I think those are all armor sets from the live server, also they are the male version.
Since I started a male Swordmaster right now, I can tell that it is not so easy to find the male sets.

Also some random SM artworks I found, they look really cool, enjoy!

And at last a video from 2008 with Paul Barnett speaking about the Swordmaster Career (proto-jedi! )

I really love how they went and worked on boots and in the end they are covered in 90% by the dress

Haha that is so true!
Thats why I like the second artwork, were you can actually see the boots, the Swordmaster looks a bit like a Knight of the Blazing Sun.
I really think they planned some armor like the second artwork one, were you could actually see the boots.
However, I do not think that is actual ingame armor, maybe some high geared SM can tell.

E: Also that stuff the Highelves make their armor (and weapons) from is called Ithilmar. It is the Warhammer pendant to mithril from the lord of the rings: Very sturdy yet ultra lightweight and resistant.

I think thats either on ruin or devastator i cant remember. Its definately ingame.

I mean Conq chest of RoR version is not in the screenshot.

pretty sure ror appearances were changed a bit from live counterparts.

[Osred]

They use doomflayer appearances. Mythic used them from what were originally going to be the conquerer set appearances, according to one of the devs. I think Torq mentioned it in the preview thread.

It seems there happened some kind of rework.
I found this image regarding that:


I never played live to that extend, so maybe some veteran can tell us when and why the armors where reworked.
I think the difference in names (Conqueror Set looking different in RoR than in Live) is because the developers of RoR chose to name the armor sets differently (or puzzle them totally new together, that I dont know).

Edit: Also in my openic picture: the name of the set left from warlord is missing, so I have no idea what that is. (the one with the back piece)

Nice find! I hope there is some for SWs lurking about the halls of the endless internet.
