Ethereal Armor: Barely There, Protection Everywhere! Real Money for Imaginary Items in a Virtual Universe?! Are you Serious? That’s a reaction commonly encountered when describing the uniqueness of Entropia Universe to ‘real worlders’. Considering that the items being offered for Entropia Universe’s 2015 year-end sale are not only imaginary but also invisible, those types of reactions might become even more frequent! Introducing the Exclusive, Limited Edition Ethereal Armor Completely transparent, Ethereal armor keeps the apparel beneath visible, while providing supreme protection against all types of damage. A slight shimmering effect is apparent when in close proximity to an avatar wearing Ethereal armor, but foes in dangerous PVP areas might easily assume that such an avatar is unprotected. Twenty-five sets of the soon-to-be legendary Ethereal armor will be available in the Entropia Universe Webshop for $5000, starting on Friday, December 18 2015 13:00 UTC. In addition, a single set of Unique Ethereal Armor will be made available on the same date and time in the Entropia Universe auction, with a starting bid of 50000 PED. The Unique version offers even more spectacular protection and durability than the normal Ethereal armor, as detailed in the list below. Ethereal Armor: Durability: 5500 Penetration: 34 Impact: 30 Burn: 42 Cut: 30 Stab: 24 Cold: 7 Shrapnel: 15 Acid: 7 Electric: 7 TOTAL: 196 UNIQUE Ethereal Armor: Durability: 6000 Penetration: 44 Impact: 33 Burn: 46 Cut: 32 Stab: 26 Cold: 8 Shrapnel: 19 Acid: 9 Electric: 11 TOTAL: 228 Payment Options The Entropia Universe Webshop accepts credit and debit cards and PayPal. For purchases of the Ethereal Armor you can also pay via Bank Transfer. For Bank transfers please allow a few days for manual handling before the Ethereal Armor is delivered to your Avatar’s inventory. If your card limit is lower than required for a desired webshop purchase, please contact Entropia Universe Support. Source
Stupid. $5000 for an invisible armor? It was crazy enough to pay ~$1200 for my Lion (F). An armour wich looked good. And that Lion (F) was one of two. Way more unique than one of 25! It's just crazy to pay for pixels. Way more crazy to pay for no pixels - lol. Seriously! Pay for changing stats only and show nothing? ROFL! I can't believe they are that unabashed. But hey, probably there are 25 morons out there and buy that bullshit. Well, the Lion offers 109 points protection only: But 125,000 bucks for nothing but change a few numbers? If this works I have to bow against MindArk for their ingenuity and coolness. Hey, this is my new "Mena Oris" from TESO wearing Ethereal armour. OMG! She is naked! P.S. From the picture above: most important as always: BIG TITS! YEAH! P.P.S. Got very stylish Christmas gifts from Arkadia btw ... ROLL EYES! Was checking the armour stats of the Lion there ... Seriously ... me with THAT hat? The folks at Arkadia Studios must smoke really hardcore stuff. The buggy looks good.
What's next? Kill Atrox with an invisible blade and invisible movement. Just standing at Atrox Beach, wearing nothing, doing nothing but killing the mobs? LOL! Than set it to automatic run and go to bed? They pervert the old original game.
