I don't have them in front of me, so I am posting the stats from memory (and work).

Dark Assassin Boots
AC 15
+5 Dex +5 Sta
+15 CR +15 MR
Rogue Bard

I am not 100% sure on the +5 Sta. I will have to login tonight and try to post these to the site. I am 100% sure about the resists though, because I remember my jaw hitting the floor when I got them. I am wondering if they are going to get nerfed though. It seems that none of the rest of this armor has such good resists. Could it be they stuck it all in the boots, rather than spreading it out? Or is it an oversight? MAN, I hope like heck they don't get nerfed. (which means they will)

bards are traveling musicians whos main focus is their art, secondary comes their troubadore side, telling tales, they belong in a bar singing, playing, and storytelling while I get drunk.. :)

Dont get me wrong, I understand that Bards and Rogues have alot in common. Mabye its just me but it realy bothers me that bards can do almost everything i can do on top of their already incredible skills (pick lock, sense traps, disarm traps), and now they can be Dark Assasins? lol Bards wearing dark assassin's armor, its not a realy good armor for them but still, whats next, is VI gonna give em Backstab too?

Bards, Rogues, and Rangers are all closely related Classes

the reason for the similarity between Rogue and Bard goes back the old Dungeons and Dragons days. You had to play as a warrior up to a point, then as a rogue up to a point before you started getting bard skills.

IF you follow history and story line between bards and rogues. Bards are the ones in public that makes the contract for the assassination, so your not discovered. So learn your place, and let the bard do its job in the nice shiny stuff /grin. This world is not singled out because you have different titles.

kinda curious ...

I am kinda curious the linkage between the rouges and the bards on this item ... and how they then toss in the ranger into the mix! I guess they are trying to match the item with rougish bar-room people who tend to spend a great deal of thier time in said establishments.

So really how does this work? The bard makes the contract, and ranger tracks the fellow and the rouge backstabs him?

Happy hunting!
not sure...

I'm not sure what recommended level of 50 means. does it mean you cant use it till lvl 50?

The recommended level of 50 means that anyone who is below level 50 will not the full AC boost. The stats you see will only be true for those of 50 or more seasons.
