Damn nice shirt.

>It was successfully adjusted for weight.

OCH!

>good protection and fair damage absorption for impact attacks.

Thats most likely where fit my shirt weight hit. Probably lost some contruction as well, just not a full level. Absorption cap on that is hhh, not hhf.

How many fit weights did you do? What weight would it be if you fit final (it looks like the regular 5 bar mix), instead of messing with fit weight?

I think you have more chain and mech than I. The lowest mod hinder high absorb shirt I've done was 190. You may see stuff I wouldn't because of that.

They are both nice. I'm quite impressed that the shirt you fit weight on maintained its construction -- which is usually the first stat smashed.

Have you tried a 150? <evilgrin>

Out of curiousity, would you try it again with fit hinderance? I'd like to see by how much the hinderance is reduced.

This one is no huge secret. 3.0 density mix:

4 dust mix
4 dust mix
4 dust mix
3 dust mix
1 zinc bar mix
2 iron bar mix
2.5 dust mix pour

>Also, those shirts I posted I usually give to people for free over in TF.

In prime, those shirts range from 18-25 plat, depending on the armorer. I sell them for 25, but I usually throw in some 18 stone LC greaves.

For the greaves, use the standard 6(7) volume ingot mix, and pour into the wire mold.

>I tried that and couldnt get it to work, it failed.

Need kertig, or other rare metal to create a fair hinderance shirt. Less than mod, in other words.

I've used that mix forever and a day, and they are 150. Are you using Crossing or Ratha dust? I had heard M'Riss (or Mer'Kresh, I forget) dust was lighter, which could account for the difference.

Its no good if its heavier, really.
