What model did the Gauntlets use? Graf Gaius (talk) 19:10, November 10, 2014 (UTC)

The 'two boot bug' (or not)

Regarding the reported bug of 'two pairs of boots, rather than the gauntlets and boots', I don't see how that is possible. An examination of the UTP files for the three containers shows that the Sentinel armour pieces are not random drops, they are specifically added to those chests (stb100ip_reward_chest_01.utp = helm; stb100ip_reward_chest_02.utp = gauntlets; stb100ip_reward_chest_03.utp = boots, with the chestpiece being found on the First's corpse). Now, it MAY be possible to obtain second pair of boots as a random drop, from one of the Avvar Lords fought in 'The Wraith's Vengence', as all three are equipped with the Boots of the Sentinel, but that could not affect the gauntlets being 'hard coded' into the Blackmarsh chest.

I would suggest that the 'bug' is not actually a bug, but rather, a misunderstanding resulting from a combination of a missed chest and a coincidental random drop. - Theskymoves (talk) 13:55, February 12, 2017 (UTC)
