may want to just make the reapair costs into metal other wise most players wont bother with it. few hits from a dino breaks it.

I'll second this. I think most things only cost 1/2 of what they take to make in order to repair.
Any way to do that?

Dude no! :D
This is a very high tech armor and it is downright r3tarded for it to be cheap. If you can't afford it yet, that is a whole another story, but don't push the mod dev to ruin it for all of us.

@P0K3r if you are reading this, please do NOT reduce the cost. Please! Thank you! :)

Agreed. People just want ♥♥♥♥ on a silver platter handed to them.

My only issue is that I have to waste time crafting flak armor every freaking time. I get that its an additional resource cost but if I just have to craft flak to make it then I'd rather use engram quality flak or even riot. It's a waste of time and makes little sense having to make ANOTHER SET OF ARMOR with which to repair this armor

i can understand a bit of cost. But i play on a annunaki genesis modded server and a few hits from a semi high lvl dino breaks it. Run around after repairing the armor to get hit by a lvl 500ish dilo to break the armor. Basicly this reduces its fesability. Sure its high tech. But there a point where repair costs do out way using the armor. If the armor isnt used much on a server then the ownders will most likley remove due to excess mods. I'd be fine with taking out the flak costs but leaving as is kinda makes it worthless to most players who explore.

Highly sure this mod was not designed to work with Annunaki. Besides. Every user on server loves their set of armor, and feels the cost is fair. lol

If you don't like it, don't use it, but to repeat myself, don't push the guy to ruin it for everyone just cause it is too expensive for you.

What could solve your problem is adding ways to get high tiers of it (not just primitive). Reducing the cost would only destroy what is an incredibly good mod.

maybe if i could get ascended version it would be fine but as it stands the durability is just to low
to be useful, much less useful than ascended riot gear for sure. a few manta hits later and this armor is broken which negates all the cost and special powers it has cause well... its broken!
for comparison
journeyman riot gauntlets, armor =235 dur=429
primitive tactical tek gauntlets, armor=150 dur =135

all you sadomasochists saying dont change it can go stuff it, there is literally nothing that makes repairing armor after 2 hits fun on any level, especially this armor

please please make it 1k armor and 1k durability at primitive level, and add ability to research higher teirs somehow
then increase the costs to 10x as much, remove the need for flak a replace it with metal accordingly

im fine if all these settings could just go into a settings.ini , since basically everyone wants their own flavor.

less meta please, make ark armor amazing!! and at least let me get a days use out of it before it breaks.

I think the item shouldn't have a higher armor value than Riot gear. Which is slow and encumbersome because of its heavy armor value. The Tek armor should be between Flak and Riot in terms of armor value and durability value.

I would even go as far to say that the Durability does in fact need to be increased. Would make sense that I put care into protecting the vital parts of a technologicaly advanced armor system with...armor...I did have to have to use a hefty ammount of metal ingots to make this Tek set after all.

But as it stands, solo play on Annunaki modded server spawning in ascendant gear has it breaking after a few hits from a beaver, manta or elite dimo. I would expect a bit more use from something this advanced and costly. It breaks on par with chitin it seems. And its made out of a LOT of metal componants.

Designed for annunaki or not, annunaki is the TOP mod, period. Some synergy options would go a long way towards continuing to popularize the Tek armor mod.

actually yeah this sounds much better. If it had durabilty of say 2k -3k then the repair costs would be worth it. Didnt think of that good suggestions guys.

i need to increase the cost (for my server) how can i ?

I just want to mention again in case the mod dev is reading this that it is not worth it to ruin this mod just because a few whiny kids want everything delivered to them on a silver plate, as Harbinger put it. I guess I can see where the bit about replacing the flak armor with metal comes from, but apart from that you all need to learn what "balance" is. Rarely encountered in mods, probably because there are always those wimps who want a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flying armor with a flamethrower for cheap...

This is not supposed to be a tank armor people. It is literally IN THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ TITLE! This is a TACTICAL Tek Armor. It is all about its tactical features not punching a Giga in the face and walking away without a scratch...

so glad some people know what constructive discusions are about..... Sure no one uses it for taking on a giga. But it should be able to take more than 3 hits from a dino before breaking. Every one can get hit from a dino getting off there dino. Doesnt mean they were taking on a giga they just got unlucky. If the durability could be altered by the server admin would be a good way to help those on the high end servers.

@nwatch_ we are just asking for a configurable mod, so u can have it your way and i can have it my way, what balance is to me is different from what it is to you, its relativity sir and thats the whole point of modding, we are simply asking for expanded functionality, not for it to be only played one way, but in any way.
