This is so cool yesterday the 28th of March 2002 i finally got this BP that i always dreamed of having since i began to play 2 years ago. Woot traded 2 centi longswords and 1 mithril bp. woot personally i estimate the price to this item at the same as a fungi tunic but i wouldnt even trade it for that nor a scepter of destruction or any other crappy crappy crap crap. Its mine and forever it shall be ) woo im happy i thought id never get one, pretty cool my ranger with mithril armor and this bp. nice looks! and its 4hp per tick for the guy below that said it was 5. its 6 when you are seated and 5 when you are standing but, since without a regen bp your hp regens by itself anyway its 1hp tick standing and 2 for sitting. since this does 5hp stand than it means it has a 4hp tick regen RUBICITE AURA ROCKS(not coz of the regen coz of the wooot cool name of it!)

Achitaka the lucky guy that has gotten his dream BP

wow. i must say: YOU'RE ON CRACK!

This thing is NOT worth the same as Fungi.

Also, no one would be dumb enuff to trade you fungi for this bp but the fact that you wouldn't rather have a bp that has 3 times the regen is beyond me... smoke much crack? im confused.

Iksar wearable
# Dec 24 2001 at 11:50 AM Rating: Decent
It is NOT Iksar Wearable. I know I tried a Level 1 Iksar Warrior just to see. "Your Race and/or Diety cannot equip this Item". The Regen rate is 5 HP PER TICK.....NOT 3......It is the same as the Iksar Regen BP. Again, I compared the Iksar BP and this on 2 different chars, both beat down to right around 100 hp's (both are right around level 40) and are Human, both Paladins. One wearing Iksar regen BP and the other wearing Rubi BP, both healed up at the same rate. both reached max HP's with a few seconds of eachother. Both were wearing absolutely no other piece of equipment and had nothing in there inventory except 1 backpack with food and water.

Just thought you would all want to know. btw, Im NOT selling mine. Not even for 100K =)

Price
# Jul 13 2001 at 8:57 AM Rating: Default
On my server, like full sets of Rubi are turning up all over the place and the are going for around 12-15k a set, 12k usually. So, 10k for the bp alone is ridiculous. I would love to get a set for my twinkie warrior just for looks though =)

RE: Price
# Dec 05 2001 at 5:06 AM Rating: Decent
Only the bp has the effect of regeneration, all the other pieces has nice ac and the cloak has 5plus agi, but those ac stats fine plate can give, plus fine plate can dye red which have exactly the same looking, not surprise that the bp is 10k while all the others round up 2k.

Firstly to answer your question iksar cannot wear this breastplate unfortunantly =(. I recently acuired one of these off some desperate guy that wanted the junk on my druid hehe lucky me =D. Anyway I'm selling or trading one of these on the Rallos Zek Server taking any offers looking for monk and druid gear =D send me a tell my name is Slashar

Well rubicite used to be near state of the art is now pretty much crap as far as stats go, but still sells for a fair amount as a rare item. A SSOY is now pretty useless as well for example. A rygorr tunic sells for 1k and is 18ac 10str 20mana 5svp and 1. wgt. Fungi tunics are more common than this used to be (and still is) and gives 15hp/tick regan standing.
Price?

Hey, I used to be adicted to EQ. Im affraid to get back into the game..... This is really funny b/c I have a level 50 Warrior with full Rubicite. Im wondering what the game has changed into after about 2 years of not playing it. Im on the SR server and Im pondering about starting up my account. What do you guys think? It would be weird to have an old hero back into action with what was once the BEST armor a player could get.......

I think its cool to see people in full ruby. I saw a high elf pally in everything but the helm the other day and all these n00bz were asking him about it...
RE: Old Player
# Jun 13 2001 at 6:47 PM Rating: Decent
to tell the truth i say you shoudl join back in having to quests and velius to play with you could have a full set of Cobalt just no bp and use the ruby bp to be the biggest Pimp on the server so join back in foreel and ASAP!
Price

For those of you argueing over the price of the RB BreastPlate they go for as much as anyone wants them to. I have seen people pay more for this item than you'd imagine. With its effect, sleek design, chain class wearability, its decent AC, and the fact the item no longer drops makes it almost priceless. People will sell these to someone will to pay a rediculous ammount. I've seen them go for MUCH more than 11,000pp.

Have fun trying to buy one.
#Anonymous, Posted: May 01 2001 at 2:23 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) This armor sucks. The AC is friggin 19. i wouldnt pay 1k for it. It looks cool and thats it. My charred guardian is almost as good.
Actual value of these
# Mar 13 2001 at 12:44 PM Rating: Default
These breastplate run about the same as the Ceremonial Iksar Chestplates. The reason they run so high is that they are rarer then hell. They are also a plate type armor that can be worn by chain classes.
#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 06 2001 at 5:23 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Hi. My name is Majorre Muneebaggs and i would like to buy one of these, but i wouldnt want to cheat anyone so i am offering 1,000,000,000,000,000,000pp for it! Look for me on your server =)

you know what gets annoying, when peoeple try to ***** up pricing for an item becauses they beleive, it is priceles, or that noone sells them anymore.maybe its true for thier server, but not for everybody, so i think everyone would appreciate if people wouldn't go around ******** up prices

does anyone know the REAL price of this BP? i expect it costs a lot more than its worth, since its so rare and everything.. if anyone knows the real price though, that would be nice. :)
RE: pricing
# Jun 13 2001 at 6:50 PM Rating: Default
the real average price is about the same as the iksr bp 10k-15k not saying the the Iksar bp sells for that anymore but still

On my sever rubicite was droping off of random mobs, but i only think 1 bp droped.
#REDACTED, Posted: Jan 13 2001 at 4:54 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I doubt the price is that high.
RE: PC
# Feb 05 2001 at 5:48 AM Rating: Default
yeah it probably is... the rubi BP with regen effect doesn't drop anymore.
#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 30 2001 at 6:01 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) No its not that high... Click price check and you will see /sigh Why do people post about something they have never seen nor heard about:(

# Dec 17 2000 at 5:31 PM Rating: Default
since this appears as plate when worn i assume that iksars cant wear. the pic above is damn old, waaaaay before iksar and kunark (notice the "pending lore", heh). everything i have seen says that iksars can use...and if they can im not complaining :)
i only ask cause the AC for this is great, and it would be nice to have nice ac items on a race that gets an ac bonus, among other things.

Classes that normaly can not wear a plate can wear this armor, why race would not be able to.

I know shamans and ranges can wear it. Both are non plate classes, so I am sure Iksar can as well.
RE: iksar-usable, NO
# Mar 05 2001 at 9:45 AM Rating: Default
Envy, lust.. not sure what makes people post "factual" information about something they have never even seen.
If you have one of these BP, you will notice that they no longer list race as "ALL". They specifically list each and every race in the game EXCEPT for Iksar. Sadly they are not able to wear this plate looking piece, much like many others. Serpentine Bracers, Silver Plated legs, etc, etc.
RE: iksar-usable
# Jan 12 2001 at 9:58 PM Rating: Decent
This item is no longer pending lore. It isn't even lore. It gives +3 HP per tick. It IS wearable by Iksars, which is either an oversight, or just a nice thing VI did. Either way, IKS WAR, SHD & SHM can wear this and the effect stacks with thier innate regen ability. A VERY nice item for a race that was not supposed to wear plate. Of course, it no longer drops in the game and is hard to come by. But you can pick them up here and there.
RE: iksar-usable
# Dec 24 2001 at 11:42 AM Rating: Decent
Is is NOT wearable by Iksar. I know, i tried on a lvl 1 Iksar Warrior just to see. Now I use it on a 35 paladin and it is 5HP per tick, NOT 3.
RE: iksar-usable
# Nov 29 2001 at 6:44 PM Rating: Decent
It's +5 HP per tick. I have one I know =P
