huh?[edit]
Why is weight an issue? You are not seriously calculating with the time needed for hauling?? --Confused 11:38, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- The reasons would be to do with the encumberance of either the soldier wearing the armour or the merchant taking the armour off you I guess.Garrie 13:01, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- The table is only about selling armor, so no. Traders don't care about weight encumbrance, so thats not it either. I now think the idea is the weight limit the traders have for taking stuff with them. Still an odd calculation. Why would i produce heavy armor that is in demand when i can't sell it then? On the other hand i never had problems with reaching the weight limit...--Confused 14:26, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- You might not have had problems with reaching the weight limit, but I have. And even if you can get all the stuff the merchants bring for without reaching their weight limit, why not give them more than they want anyway? It's not like the pieces of armor you make while training your armorsmith are good for much else (except for melting, but I find that's more effort than its worth). So let them carry it away and leave your armor stockpile with more space. That's my opinion anyway, and I made the table in excel originally just for self-reference. I thought others might find it useful as well so I posted it. I hadn't thought about the time needed for hauling, but that IS a benefit, even if it's a minuscule one. --Mjo625 18:53, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- Well then lets just agree to disagree and point out the reasons in the article :) --Confused 00:02, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
