Interesting, Ill have to get a pair

Swanky. I guess there'll be more helper signposts to point them in that general direction, then, eh?

Hat, jacket, shirt, pants, gloves, boots. That sounds like a full set! Whoovst. Unless you don't want to count the Headless Shades.

Nice.

Great!  I knew you wanted to finish the lowbie quests and get them into Tabor Park.  I'm glad you finished it, and that the gloves look nice.

That looks awesome...

Always up for more nice gloves, and these ones look to fit the bill.

Keke, nice.

Looks good.

As long as new players get pointed in the right direction then it sounds ok. I wonder how they compare with Jack's gloves though.

Well I can't wait for the mission, it sounds like we will learn a little more about the collector

Do the female gloves just look like the arasiki driving gloves I guess?

I've always liked the Chessman, good to see this bit of the trail finally getting done :)

Yay new gloves!

*kidnaps Nicks again*

Nice to see something new for the new starters!

Will check these out when they are released.

Aye, good stuff, but like others have said, only really useful if properly directed to. Heres hoping.

This is cool. Also, I like the concept and the format this is formulated on. If this is how the "new missions" will be like. I'll  appreciate them a lot more than anything!

I  like the use of contacts and collectors. New items are always a plus. I hope they are percentages.

Rarebit, considering you made the "Industrial Fedora" a hat with 2% ballistic accuracy, why would you make the gloves in the newbie industrial set benefit the Melee archetype? Well I guess at that level stats really don't make a difference, but you get my drift?

Hopefully not, .4 seconds more of powerless duration, or a whopping -5 IS debuff are some examples why percentage buffs are usually not worth it. For a level 3 it'd have to be some pretty intense percentages, like 50% or something, to actually have an effect on acc/def/what have you.

gr-gr-grey!? Win.

I agree, lowlevels have no need for % clothing, raw pt clothing is more efficient, hence why I usually farm Pugilist gloves for gunners.

I'm sure the buffs on it will be useless to people of all levels, and people will just want to wear it for looks.

Indeed, operative.

Looks good Rare!!! I think that Bayamos' right on the bonus stuff (even though I never understood it ) but yeah points seems to be better than %'s for everyone... and it's nice to see the tutorial quest done into Tabor as promised in a newsletter ehem.. a year ago or more ago?.... I had to Rare.. I had to! *nudge*

Anyway it's good to see you got time to work on the Matrix char/contacts in the city too now that's ftw!!!

hurr hurr Assassin wears the same gloves. must be a conspiracy, ;|

Nice!   Cranking out lowbie missions so you can repackage MXO and re-launch?  wo0t!!

What?!  what do you mean NO!? 

Anyway, how about some contact items scaled for 50s?  Like Victory Rifle Level 50. 

Know what i mean?

Actually, those are grey formal gloves from what I can see (we got black 'n white). Dunno if the Assi wore formal gloves.
