I have a named T4 Armor at my Improved Armor Bench… Njoror Battleborn, something…
I have the Feats to make Vanir and Epic Vanir…
But all he does is make the regular base Vanir, and Flawless Vanir.
Nothing actually says “Epic”… and when ever I type the word “Epic” into the search bar on the work bench, nothing comes up. So seriously, what IS Epic, and how do you know its Epic, if nothing actually uses the word “Epic” in it?
Oh, my platform is PC and this is both Solo Single Player and on a modded server.
Flawless requires a T4 armorer, epic requires an improved armorer’s bench. It doesn’t actually say “epic” in the name of the recipe, but it’s distinguished from a non-epic item by the purple frame around the icon.
Also, the epic recipe requires different materials from the non-epic one and the product has higher armor protection.
Others have explained to you how to make an epic armor (lvl 60 armor feat + improved armorer’s bench = armor with purple border). Exceptional tier requires a specific T3 armorer, flawless tier requires a specific T4 armorer.
Below is just a summary of all versions of the same armor piece depending on the grade and tier i.e epic has more armor and more durability than the lower grade version:
I have never said anything about base epic vs normal flawless, I said epic vs normal and gave a comparison chart for the ones who wish to see any other possible versions of this same armor. Don’t put any words in my mouth, please
So it won’t actually say “epic” on it, good to know! I think I understand how it works now, and thank you all for the replies! Based on this I managed to acquire a T4 Thrall that makes Zamorian and get the correct pieces made!
It still makes no sense, that base epic is worse than normal flawless.
But then again, so much in this game makes no sense at all… Like, why does Redeemed silent legion not have +3 on all armor parts? Like +3 acc at the helmet.
Epic flawless have 2 bars of temperate protection. Flawless aka normal only has one bar.
You want the armor that says Flawless with a purple border. Youll only see this with an improved armor bench and youll want a T4 thrall. Different armorers craft specific armors unique to them.
