Troll Blacksmith "Smith" reward is too weak on the armor side

The new troll rewards system is very nice, though the most expensive "Smith" option is rarely useful for armor.

The player can have the Blacksmith smith 3 items for them. They always get to choose from 2 random weapons and a random armor generated using Dwarven Metropolis tier distribution. The items have 15%/55%/20%/5% chance to be upgraded to +0/+1/+2/+3 respectively and are never enchanted or cursed.

At this stage of the game we are usually looking forward to a plate armor, and may have one at +0/+1. Often enough we can upgrade and reforge for 1500 favor and come out with +2/+3 plate.

Now the Smith option, for 2000, has a low chance of producing such an armor and often only produces a Scale mail, rarely a novelty at the troll's level.

Perhaps the armor item should be guaranteed to be a plate?

  • Went down to hunt an extra plate, came back to upgrade+reforge to +3, and there is still favor left for another reforge 🙂
