justpersia Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 [hide=THIS][/hide] yeah so... It looks a lot like a dragon plate. The shoulders are very different in the fact that the dragon chains shoulders take the shape of your default shoulders and the dragon plates shoulders are out away from his body. There are also multiple [bleep]es on each of the shoulders. And I don't care if i get flamed for saying that i think it is the dragon plate, or for showing my evidence to back up what i think, so flame away or keep posting your " dud3 itz a dragon chain" crap. kthx Just thought I'd let you know, both number 2's are the normal [bleep]es on the dragon chain. The number 1 on the right side is clearly just the handle of the dragon spear. However number 1 on the left side I'm not sure about, however it is not attatched to the armour itself, as it has the brown of the floor inbetween, and looks like either something on the floor or a part of the skillcape or something. I'm not saying this definitely is not a plate and is a chain, however from the eividence we have got, the chances of this being a dragon plate are slim.

darkjab Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I've decided to do my own comparisons. Comparing a Female to a Female rather than the previous Female to Male body structures :roll: I've also put some more specific comparisons, comparing horns and the general build of the pads. There's also a comparison to the actual d plate's shoulder pads. Here is the picture: Make of it what you will. But i'm confident it is the Dragon Plate. And let me make it clear to anyone who has ever mentioned it in this topic or any other for that matter because it's becoming a silly method of trying to prove yourself right. Just because there is no armour covering the arms DOES NOT make it instantly a chain. Torag's Platebody and Dharok's Platebody lack complete coverage of the arms, I guess they MUST be chain's too and that Jagex must amend this immediately because they are wrong! A Chain is a chain because the armour is made from a group of chains, it has NOTHING whatsoever to do with the coverage of arms. Seriously the amount of times I've seen this now is driving me insane. I'm just going to stay out of any further conversations before I blow a fuse :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mylez Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Admittedly, that looks a lot different from the Jagex picture. However, it's hard for any of us to say for sure whether it's a platebody or chainbody without seeing the front. That would allow us to determine for sure, and leave no room for speculation :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowFire Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Yep, I had intended to post that image as soon as I saw it, but considering the ridiculous flaming that was recieved for the one that the TC posted I didn't feel it was worth bothering with. There's no doubt it's a Dragon Platebody, it's blatently clear to anyone that isn't blind that the shoulders not only are bigger but they also have two small white prongs instead of one large white blob. As for that "but platebodies cover the arms" rubbish, neither the cache image or new banner show covered arms on the Dragon Platebody. Considering how it has now been shown in the banner and two update images, I think it's safe to assume that Jagex are dropping hints about it in prepartion for release either with a update coming soon, or with the big quest (which they said they'd be dropping hints about) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@Dan3HitU Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Unless they're planning to graphically update the Chainbody (like they do with most items every few months). That's the only explanation. [-- DYNAMIC SIGNATURES FOR RUNESCAPE 3 & OLDSCHOOL 2007 RUNESCAPE --] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowFire Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 If it were just an updated chain, why would it have been in the cache since long before the graphics update? Updating the look isn't a major event, they'd have just released it with HD (like the new Barrows and Khazard look) instead of creating a new Dragon Chainbody model to then replace it a few months later with something they've had stored for a year.

darkjab Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 If they were to update the chain I think they would of done it with the rest of the D items when HD came out, the dragon long, axe and the med (for women) has been altered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EU Slayer Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 That says it all. Dragon Platebody, end of. no argument here. Can't wait for this to be released(sp?) :pray: I don't know which mod did this. I don't know why they did it. If they're looking for money, I can tell them I don't have any as I'm a student. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over 4 years of RuneScape. Skills that I have worked hard for and people like them can't take them away. If they give me my particles back now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for them, I will not pursue them. But if they don't, I will look for them, I will find them, and they won't like what'll happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian5kamikaze Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 It looks like theres armor around his arms so i really doubt its just an updated d chain, but id expect them to be wearing a d full helm if it was a dplate, hmm could be either one, im leaning towards the plate though.

Adizzle3131 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Not sure if anyone mentioned this but maybe d plate will be attainable as part of the reward from this "BIG" quest coming out.

Jagex did it a few years ago with new NPC's and they said publicly afterwards why they did it. They added "Mammoths" and something else (i think tigers?) into the cache so that private servers could use them (and create them). I forgot why they said they added them, but this was well over a year ago.

It's the right arm that get's me, the 'gloves' seem to cover the rest of the arm, it could just be because I stretched the image though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I love speculating I can see the quest being used as a requirement to wear the Dragon Plate, but to actually get it you'll need to kill a very tough monster that is only unlockable after the quest. Oh I do so hope we can go to Frenaskae from this quest and we can at the very least buy the remaining dragon weapons, short sword, war hammer, etc, just for completionist sake. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmorgan Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 there is a more important question than, is that a platebody in that pic on the banner. suppost that is a platebody, then jagex is making that pic realistic and comparable to in game play. then what sword is that? leaf bladed? it doesnt look like it. if we get a d pl8 realese soon then expect to have a new sword, probably high lvl. i dont expect a player with nice armor to be carrying around a steel longsword. any more ideas? also, my vote is d pl8 yes. :pray: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4ngewarlord Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 i reckon d plate and i think the new quest will have something to do with it sorta like dragon slayer Gamertag: EFs Predator.Games I play: Halo 3, Halo wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
