(Noob Q) Tien armour...

[Shifty]

Who can buy / start with Tien weapons or armour?

ONLY Samurai/Ninja etc?

ONLY Native Tien at L1?

[Kelly Youngblood]

Anyone who can provide a copy of Ultimate Combat or a printout of the relevant pages from the UC PDF watermarked to him.

Abaslom is a big city after all, there are bound to be importers.

Ahh nice.

So in short, basically anyone :)

Keep in mind that while the eastern armors can be worn by anyone with the relevant proficiency (or without, if you don't mind the penalties), most of the eastern weapons are considered exotic. So you need the training or exotic weapon proficiency feat. Or, like with the armors, you can use them anyways and deal with the penalties. =)

You can find anything for sale in absolom....

ANYthing *wink wink*

I think it's closer to half, actually. There are some nifty martial ones.

More or less, aside from the lack of any simple weapons. Heck, the nodachi is one of the best in the book and it's martial.

My favorites are Nodachi and Four-mirror armor (great starter armor for tanks/heavy armor people)

Who would have thought having a larger handle would give you a better level of chopping force? Oh wait, the people in Asia that invented is so they could cut through the legs of charging horses. :P (well, theoretically at least)
