Do you keep your old armor?

A lot of us get extremely uber upgrades (or seemingly extremely uber) at some point in our career. But when you upgrade that piece of equipment, does your old 'uber' item stay with you? If so for how long?

This could apply to a set of thorny vine or even a set of forest stalkers or even luclin items.

You missed the option of Yeah, I keep it for a while but then hand it down later.

I always keep an extra set of no drop gear for CR gear. My droppable stuff either gets handed on or gets sold if noone wants it. Some stuff that my wife can use that I've got has gone from me to her when I got an upgrade.

i will hold on to no drop stuff that was really kickass at the time i got it. Thorny Vine Chestplate, Briarzephyr are two examples.

droppable stuff that i would no longer use i will pass down or sell.

I keep my old quest armor.. the Skyshrine stuff.
I've got a handful of decent weapons banked too.. ND crap.

I will never use it, but it's there just in case.

Hand down droppables or sell if no one wants.

ND stuff hang on to for a bit and then usually destroy it.

I still keep a set of CR gear but haven't actually used it since early Luclin. I would have probably handed it all in for exp if anyone would have taken it though.
Still got a couple of VP weapons banked for nostalgia reasons

I still carry around my hammer from VP.

Malevolant Runeblade (BoBDE Mk2?) is the only lammy-lookalike I ever had

Had that badly-scaled DD-proccing sword too. Looked like you were slapping stuff with a guppy though cos that stupid thing was wider than it was long

I think anyone who was around enough to have done Fear/Hate back before kunark probably keeps a spare set of CR gear, especially given that Dalover/Shyness crew were selling the corpse summon spell for 10k a copy. Back then if you wiped and had no backup gear you were basically fucked. Nowadays, with coffins, easy zone ins, and graveyards, you would have to be a total retard to lose your gear. Howver, given that I am a paranoid old school bastard, I keep a set of my old Thurg armor and enough passable gear to fill every slot, just in case.

CR gear went out with mage armor =) I remember one of the last xanupox akheva raids where we CR'd all the way to shei in red.

Aabidano · Post by **Aabidano** » March 30, 2003, 10:47 am

I've got some misc no-drop gear I haven't gotten around to destroying, mainly becasue I haven't needed the bank space. All of my hate armor that hadn't already been destroyed got turned in to the PoK bubbas. The droppable gear I have would probably get handed down to someone if I got an upgrade, upgrades are pretty unlikely though

I kept a set of CR gear for a long time, and only had to use it once.

And I've still got a few pieces of gear given to me long ago, like the uber lizard scale cloak Geno gave me and my SolRo quest stuff

I kept my Fear armor for CR gear too.. still have it, also still have my Fear axe, Hate whip. Even have my Short Sword of Morin and Orc Impaler

Do you keep your old armor?

When you get an upgrade for a once 'uber' piece of equipment, do you still keep the old one?
