The Omni-Tek Tailors
have been having trouble with Rollerrats lately,
and it just so happens that you could make yourself
useful! The reward? One of the newfangled, fancy
(although a bit smelly..) Omni-Tek Special Issue
Armors! We'll show you the ropes! |

This is Edgar. Well. Actually, the OT Tailors
have no names, but reliable sources tells us this
one is called Edgar. Okay, so fine, we made it
up. Anyway. The OT Tailors have been having a
problem lately, it seems that they are in dire
need of some Rollerrat flesh in order to make
the Omni-Tek clothes they sell, and it so happens
that they could use your help. Now fancy that,
eh?
The OT Tailors can be found scattered around various
OT settlements and cities on Rubi-Ka, and we heartily
recommend that you go look for the one located
in the middle square of Omni-Trade. Strike up
a conversation with him and you'll soon find out
that he has a small task for you, involving the
killing of a multitude of rats.

Before we actually start doing the mission, there's
a few things you should know. First off - the
rewards that the tailor will give you depends
on your breed. If you are Atrox, you will get
Black Suit parts, Nanomages gets Executive Suit
parts, Opifexes get Intern-Ops parts and Solitus
gets the Grey Suit parts. The parts are not nodrop
and have no breed-requirements however, so it
is possible to trade them away.
Each time you get the mission, you will receive
a random part. So be wary that if you are gathering
enough parts for a whole set. Shift-click the
mission icon to find out what the reward is, and
if it is a part you already have, you can delete
it and talk to the tailor again to get a new one
for another part. With that said - its not time
to get out there and look the enemy dead in the
eye!

And this is the face
of the enemy! Know it well.
Rollerrats can be found pretty much everywhere.
Larger groups of rats are hard to find,
but just outside of Omni-Entertainment in
Omni-Forest you will find some, and there
is a lot of rollerrats in Harry's Outpost
in Lush Fields as well.
Rollerrats are aggressive little buggers,
so if you are below level 5, meeting them
can be an ugly experience, since they hit
pretty hard.
Rollerrat's will not always drop the sought-after
rollerrat flesh, so you might find yourself
hunting them for a while. |
You will need 6 pieces of rollerrat flesh for
a complete set (the sets have no backslot or helmet
armor pieces).

Undamaged
Piece of Rubbery Rollerrat Flesh
When a Rollerrat dies from damage
in combat, it's normally due to its
lungs being punctured. The flesh that
covers its chest area is of a singular
quality - having
excellent strength and flexibility. |

|
Once you have all the six pieces you need, it's
time to head back to the Tailor and start handing
them in. Remember - if you get a mission for a
part you already have, simply delete the mission
and you can grab another, hopefully for a part
you don't already possess. Once you have gotten
your nifty new set, simply put it on and you'll
be the pride of Omni-Tek!
As you can see from the above pictures, the sets
reminds a lot about the regular sets you can buy
from the Omni-Tek Tailors or indeed from the Clothes
Booth in any shop. However, they do differ substantially,
since these are the armor variants of the clothes.
Lets take a look at the stats shall we.. All suits
are complete (ie, includes two sleeves).

As you can clearly see, the suits are definately
geared towards the different breeds, although
in no way are you forced to use one suit. As mentioned
before, they are not nodrop so can be sold or
traded. As far as the individual suits goes -
the AC's are low, although so are the requirements.
It is a nice enough armor to get started in but
lack of true protection and upgradeability keeps
the judges from holding up all 10's. The life-expentancy
of this armor we would say is mostly geared towards
level 1-5 people, which is odd since the average
rollerrat will steamroll people around that level.
Nevertheless, it should hold you until you can
get your hands on some real armor.
