Ched made the following statement within this post within this thread:
"Ranked Warring has its own rewards system, I'd say the most interesting and unique rewards Torn's ever seen, the culmination of many years of work : Weapon & Armor caches."
A few years back (I think it was roughly 4+ years ago) someone made a post revealing new sets of armor had been added to the database. This post included pictures of the armor (it may have even briefly had links to the Torn pages showing each item; I can't really say that definitively though). I haven't seen much said about this since that post was made. And I'm uncertain if the thread still exists (I could be wrong, but I thought people said it had been deleted).
These armor sets, if I recall correctly, had unique attributes applied to them. I think there were four sets shown. But the only one I seem to recall is a set known as "Riot Gear." The unique attributes were things such as a boost given to your speed and / or dexterity, but it came at the expense of a lesser degree of protection when hit. In contrast, another set might have the highest level of protection when worn, but it came at the expense of lowering your speed and / or dexterity. I don't recall any info pertaining to new weapons being presented.
I'm wondering if anyone else recalls this. I'm also wondering if people in general, given what Ched stated above, are expecting these Armor & Weapon caches to contain new items (as opposed to multiple pieces of armor or weapons which already exist).
Are you guys excited by this prospect? In addition to that, if these caches are to introduce new items into the game, are you concerned about them being introduced through the method of prizes related to ranked warring?
