Hi all,
 
Have searched through a lot of the forums for adventus armoury stuff but haven't found what I am looking for.....So posting up a few valid points and hopefully have some dev feedback soon....
 
Having finished my Epochos crafting and gathering enough crafting vouchers to start buying adventus patterns and designs, I've made a few notes:
 
1) You cannot tell what stats are going to be on the Adventus gear until you craft the item (thankfully, you can sell the design/pattern back to the vendor for the amount it cost you)
2) Adventus gear "costs" a lot more to get (uses Data Fragments, ingots etc) so you'd expect this gear to be better that the Epochos.....from some of the stuff I have seen - it isn't, and in most cases the Epochos is better.
3) There are levels to the Adventus gear you get, and so you have to get the "lower" tier Adventus gear first - this is a good thing, but not every slot is catered for by Tier 4 Adventus (CW4)
 
So, I'm kinda stuck on the Epochos stuff and I don't want to progress my Armoury crafting anymore until I can be sure that the stuff I make will be upgrades......
 
Anyone read any feedback on what may be coming post patch or if this issue is highlighted and acknowledged by any devs?
 
Thanks in advance!

			COMPLETELY BROKEN! I can only speak for tailoring though and specifically chest (possibly legs). The lvl 50 improved chest piece I made with a refined core has the exact same armor value as the Adventus chest and I cannot get close to the same stats. What a waste and just made me mad for an hour as it burned 2 sign of fusion - eldan and 7 data fragments.

			Not.  I don't know about Engineer but for Warrior the only Adventus items worth crafting are the tank legs and tank shield.  All the other tank slots and DPS gear is Epochos or below for the best stuff.	
----
			 Crafting is just plain broken at the moment. I have just stopped spending time/money/effort crafting anything for tailoring.  I can get better stats on most of the Fibermod stuff for a fraction of the cost. Not to mention that the slots keep changing their efficiency value.  When you start to craft the red slot is good, you plug a chip in there and it somehow changes to bad, and the green slot that was average is now good.

Imo, crafting wasnt ready for launch but they where out of time to change things. I wouldnt doubt if it was completely different in a year or so.
 
@op, I'm also an armorer. Sadly alot of the adventus is crap, but some of it is really good. Its just gonna be a few weeks before you can make the good stuff.

RIght now for both Engineer and Warrior armor the best in slot items are regular Galactium stuff or Epochos stuff.
 
Adventus will be good once we get more powerful cores, specifically epic and legendary quality cores (and after they make the itemization changes). You should focus on getting your data fragments and unlocking all the recipes. But you will be gimping yourself wearing Adventus gear as there are better options elsewhere for the time being.
