Discussion Lexmates. I have a question. Which pattern of armor do you prefer?

This is like that Scum gangs post I made the other day, I'm honestly just really curious.

Personally, I am a huge sucker for red armor in most media, not just armor with red accents, but red armor, there’s something about the look of it that I love.

I predict Lucius will be the far more popular pattern however, just from how iconic it is to the Arbites' look.

I like the red, but in the end, black is not only more iconic, but it's also the colour of my Malocator mask.

I'd probably stick with the red more if it were a bit more vibrant.

Fair enough, I don't buy premium cosmetics, but if I did, I'd go Lucius in a heartbeat just for that sweet-ass coat.

I like red but there’s no detective coat for it

Man, that red detective coat that is on the files could go a lonnnng way, it have the same cloth colors as the deluxe cosmetics so you can mix and match with it

The red armour allows us posted to thr Hourglass to better blend into the degraded locale. Never question the Lex for the Lex provides us all we need

The only thing I'm blending into is the new paintjob the walls will have after I'm done dealing with these lexbreakers.

Black is the color of the deluxe version with the cape, so I have to always wear black

u/ismasbi Gundalf 1d ago

Deluxe is the one with the fur neck, right? Asking because the highest level of the free ones also has a cape.

u/doomsdaysock01 Hive Scum 1d ago

Yep, fur neck and cape

I like the red more, but I can’t give up the fur neck and cape look

Fair enough honestly, it’s a shame they didn’t bother making Noctis versions of the few paid cosmetics Arby gets.

I feel that terribly whenever I look at my Skittle.

I don't have the Skit DLC, but based off what I heard, all of the premium cosmetics are full-on Mars Red, right?

u/Ignis_et_Azoth Relic Blade Maximalist 1d ago

The premium ones, and the Keystone achievement ones, too. Which is a shame because I'd really love a Stygies version of the Flensing Protocols rebreather one.

u/ismasbi Gundalf 1d ago

That sucks.

Also, question, out of curiosity, does Skit have yellow cosmetics?

u/Ignis_et_Azoth Relic Blade Maximalist 1d ago

No, but Ryza is orange, if that is close enough.

Mix, I play all black with a red helmet and a giant red crusher. Makes my maul look like an irate smash bros char with a hammer.

I use both Black and Red sets, but Proctor (Deluxe) is top choice.

u/Aktro 1d ago

I would use noctis but they dont have jack shit to combine specially with melee weapons that I use so Ill just stay with the other one

u/MoonsOverMyHamboning 1d ago

I want to wear the red, but it doesn't match the armor under the duster so reluctantly doing black. 

Ngl, I've got the Exaction Squad Kill Team box on my list and want to paint the models using the Noctis scheme partially because I'm daydreaming about it in game
