Gem trimmed armor. Lore friendly. Hassle.

It is just the small things that the mod team have little inspiration for. They spend so much time getting big time consuming things done like the last Harad update (programming structures into the mod is exsensivly time consuming) to put in the extra effort to implement something small but fun like faction arrows. And like Arcen said, "It has been suggested. It didn't go well." But if you spend all your time making the big things then your world has no depth, IMO LOTR is so notable precisely because Tolkien took time to flesh out the little things, he devotes something like 1/5 of the book just to appendices, and let's not forget how much time he devotes to setting up the birthday party in the beginning. If you skim over the details of his work then you fundamentally misunderstand what LOTR is all about. Let me clarify what I mean by "hassle". I am not saying that the mod team don't want to add "details" to the game, but they are mostly concerned with more vital things they are working on implementing. New factions are necessary for filling out the world of LOTR, major improvements like the new pledging/faction system are also necessary, the reforging/scrolls system was necessary to replace the mc enchanting system. When all of these "more important big things" are in the mod properly, then the mod team might add something like faction arrows or gem trimmed items.
