PC doesn't the trader change for B155 make some Q6 unobtainable?

One thing I tend to do whenever I play a build that is NOT mainly endurance or agility is to seek out the highest quality cloth armor I can. Since I'm not perked into the armor skills, I'd rather not deal with the mobility and stamina penalties of wearing unperked heavy or leather+ light armor.

Previously, I relied on the trader to get hold of Q6 cloth armor pieces slowly over the course of my game...It wasn't too expensive, had no drawbacks, and fit 4 mods in it.

I can't remember ever looting certain pieces of cloth armor. Now, I could be wrong (I vaguely recall finding a cloth hood, so they might be in the loot tables?), and if so, then disregard this post...

...but are there items that have a "quality" that aren't on loot tables, that ARE offered by traders?

I can't think of one.

Well I just scrapped my lvl 6 cloth hood that I looted...

So I'm 100% certain they are in the loottable

BUT I would like "primitive" tools weapons and armor to still be sold at Q6.

It is not much and not REALLY needed... because nobody in lategame wants a T6 cloth hood (no offense ) or a lvl 6 primitive bow, when they have a lvl 2 compound bow. But it gives some options to earlygame.

Nothing major. And not really worth the efford... but I thought I'd share it anyways ^^

Fair enough! I was even second guessing myself as I posted the OP...should have been a hint i guess.

Maybe in previous alphas, but in A18 they drastically increased the effectiveness of cloth armor. the fact that it protects about half as well as good heavy armor with about 60% of the resistance, while having NO movement or stamina penalty is pretty nice for longer ranged perception or INT builds.

Totally agree with the others though, Can't think of any other "Tier 1" items I'd ever choose to use over higher versions.
