Heyas all,

I recently was playing my Troll Shadow Knight (my highest character at level
10 =) and was exploring the Rathe Mountains when I happened upon 3 tents
each with an Ogre or Troll NPC vendor at each one. I checked the first one,
it was your usual inn-type shop. Went to the second one, a stock of leather
armor. Ok then, I check the third, and apparently some player had dumped a
suit of Bronze Armor on it. So, I check it's stats and quickly learn that

#1. It's much heavier than plate
#2. It's the same AC as plate

So I go to check the prices, expecting the usual 5800+ platinum plate costs.
After doing a near double-take, I realize the total cost for the set is 210
platinum. So, I quickly run my Troll hide to Oggok and grabwhat little plat
I had (36 or so) and bought the Tunic and Collar/Gorget.

So, getting to my question, this stuff may be much heavier, but a 5600 plat
priceslash for weight? What's the deal on that? Since I couldn't afford a
full suit now, I was interested in picking some up, and was told I could do
so in HighPass Hold. Where in HighPass can I find it and on what monster(s)?
And was this price a fluke, or is this the going rate? If so, why would
anybody ever buy Normal Plate? I do realize a full suit (and I added it
together) weighs about 86 pounds, which is quite hefty, is that the only
reason it is so much cheaper?

Thanks a bunch,
Rukkak
