Production notes[edit]

Tormentor, alongside the other Banished armour featured in the Banished Honor update, was originally concepted to consist of two preset armour kits. Due to the unpopular fan reception of those fixed kits, the designs were split up into individual armour pieces to allow for player customisation.[3]

  3. ^ Reddit, The Brute armor in Banished Honor was originally supposed to be it's own armor core: "These were initially concepted as armor kits, which meant no per-piece customization. Given the pretty much unanimous dislike of those more restrictive kits, we shifted these to be armor set pieces that would allow for more mixing and matching. In my eyes, we all still got sick looking Banished Spartans while also retaining the ability to fully customize their character. The pivot was a win for everyone imo" - John Junyszek (Retrieved on May 18, 2024) [archive]
