It's probably been mentioned before, but I'd say a Gas Mask would be a nice addition to the Roblox catalog. And, perhaps a functional one, but not as a gear. Such will be explained below.
BEFORE READING THE IDEA BELOW, PLEASE READ ~ALL~ OF THE IDEA BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR CRITICISMS, SHOULD YOU WANT TO MAKE THEM AT ALL. (Hopefully the caps got the majority of your attention.)
Also, I've thought about an Armory category within the Catalog. Armor would reduce damage concerning certain genres of battle-gear.
The armory's sections would include Battle Plates, Battle Leggings, and Battle Hats. Battle plates are for covering the chest, and perhaps they could reduce melee damage, or something of that sort. Battle Leggings would of course be for the legs to reduce ranged damage of certain gear weapons, etc. Battle Hats are of course self-explanatory, but perhaps a GAS MASK (reference early on) could block some damage from the gas that is produced from the Speed Stunter gear. Other items could increase speed, or perhaps an anti-gravity trait, or even a reactive trait that returns a bit of the damage that you received to the dealer of the damage.
Armor could be "blocked" by a setting on any game that anyone creates. Therefore, you could limit armor all together, or perhaps you could allow Battle Hats and Battle Plates, but not Battle Leggings. In other words, the creator of the given game would have control over what enters his/her game, just like gear.
I suggest this because people sometimes have big trouble fighting of explosive gears or perhaps gears that cannot be dodged or reflected. If armor could be allowed in a game, they could perhaps wear a "set" that would reduce the damage from particular weapons that often ended up killing them in the past.
Armor will of course give players with more money a bigger chance of winning duels or fights, but that wouldn't change the fact that the same thing happens with gear. Therefore, nothing would truly be changed.
Please feel free to criticize or support the idea, but I believe this could be quite the addition to Roblox. Plus, Roblox needs another update that grabs peoples' attention, like the Dynamic Lighting update. |

First off, an armory is a place where weaponary is mainly stored but they often have some armor inside.
Yes this would be a really nice advantage to have againts some gear. This would be helpful in many war type games. I Like your idea.

I'm beginning to think that this should be separate from the Catalog, if it were to be created. Like, an Armory tab.
Yes, yes. I know that these armor-items can be purchased and must therefore be in the catalog, but I'm not sure if they would add an "Armor" section next to hats, gears, packages, etc. |

I also believe there should be weak spots, so people would be able to start aiming for the face, or whatever might be exposed/isn't covered with armor. Plus, that would start improving people's aim with ranged weapons. |

| Ouch, this would be hard to pull off for the administrators. If a game disallowed you to enter without the armored hats, then you would be bald? It would make things much more interesting on Roblox, as PVP would start to evolve around these armors. I support this, but I have no idea what outcome it will have in the end. |

Armor... another suggestion to turn ROBLOX into MineCraft... Is this MineCraft? Sorry I thought this was ROBLOX.

Minecraft has basic sets of armor that only reduce damage on certain rankings of material. Does Minecraft have reactive armor? Does Minecraft have gas masks? I think not. Please stop using unnecessary forms of criticism. Thanks. |

@Almighty
Apparently armor isn't allowed in Roblox because of another game. That's like saying "World of Warcraft is like Everquest because it has armor." If you think Roblox is just like Minecraft, go jump down a blocky hole to the End, k thx. |

Oh I see, so then you want to turn ROBLOX into a RPG game like WoW, or Runescape, where you have "magic" armor that fights back for you.
Oh yes, that is so much better.
Plus I wasn't really critisizing unnecessarily... I'm a pretty respectful Forumer, I don't go and say "st0op1d id34 br0." You need to learn to react to Constructive Critisism, and not cry about it like a baby.
Your Welcome for the Constructive Critisms.

And unster, I'm not saying what ROBLOX should have and haven't, I'm just saying that adding armor, wouldn't really make it ROBLOX anymore...

"You're Welcome?"
Get over yourself.
Minecraft armor only reduces damage, and it has no other purpose, aside from aesthetic appeals.
Your criticism is merely an opinion, and is therefore being overlooked. |

Not really the thank you I was expecting, but eh, shows me right for trying to educate you guys.
You also seemed to ignore the fact that I compared your "magic" to World of Warcraft and Runescape (to be honest, I'm not sure if Runescape even has armor, so that could be an ignorant statement on my part, go ahead, jump all over that). So, yeah, attacking previous points, is usually a sign of a lost argument.

Attacking previous points? I'm debating my own ideas, not your criticisms. Stop trying to educate me over a forum. You're not a teacher. And if you are, you have better things to be doing, like grading reports or whatnot.
I'm suggesting this for usage, not for aesthetic appeal. This is armor. Not package ideas. Learn the difference, please. |

| If you dislike my idea to the extent you're leading me to believe, I will kindly ask you to stop posting on this thread and do something slightly more productive. You're just picking an unnecessary fight over an idea, and I therefore have no further desire to listen to your criticisms. |
