DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Question for the armorsmiths
« on: September 30, 2023, 10:35:50 am »
īton, one of my armorers, just came up with an artifact aluminum segmented breastplate.
First, you made a breastplate and not a single low boot. Good job īton.
Second, that wasn't the plan. I had explicitly forbiden all metal bars except for steel but after īton brought her steel bar to the workshop and was busy gathering other material for the decorations I allowed the other metals again so the rest of the metalcrafters guild would stop yelling at me about all their jobs being canceled. She took the opportunity to pull a fast one and took an aluminum bar (her favourite metal) to replace the steel bar that was already in the workshop and earmarked for her artifact. I didn't even know she could do that. Bad job īton. Good thing her favourite metal wasn't tin, I guess.
Third, and this one is for you, is it any good ? I mean it is good, the thing alone is worth more than all the kits of my main squad combined - and they aren't wearing the cheap stuff. But is it good as an armor ? From what I understand the "segmented" part just means it is extra fancy so the question is essentially does anybody knows how aluminum x3 compares to steel x2 ?
