Talk:Stardust armor

The Stardust Armor set effect is very clearly a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure reference. Stardust Guardian shares the same figure, color scheme, armor, and function as Star Platinum, and the part it's from is called Stardust Crusaders. Any other "references" are purely coincidental.

 * I wouldn't say it looks anything like Star Platinum. It's likely a JoJo reference, but almost all of the stands and characters have exaggerated muscles. The official colouring of Star Platinum is unknown, and Araki probably doesn't even remember anymore. And the only similarities between the Guardian and Star Platinum are that they both have armoured shoulders. Laparapa (talk) 00:49, 6 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I do think that saying it looks like Starplat is pretty false, but is almost 100% a reference, right down to being Stardust considering the Jotaro era is Stardust Crusaders. The look of the thing is that of a stand, it acts as one too. The fact that the reference listing in trivia was removed for being "unsourced" is a little strange, how exactly do you source references? Are we supposed to ask for a public statement of all pop culture references ever, no matter what? What do we do about the pages that have weird writings about references like the fact that Clothier says he's a Ladykiller and it says it MIGHT be a reference to The Ladykillers? Do we tweet @redigit and say "Hey red please confirm that you've put references in your game along with each and every reference so we can properly cite that on the wiki"? 64.4.93.62 20:49, 7 July 2015 (UTC)


 * To be fair, sometimes it's better to leave out the theorising and just stick to what's known. Otherwise you could fill entire wiki articles with what "might be". That said, this armour seems like a pretty clear reference to JoJo, although not to any stand in particular. Laparapa (talk) 19:03, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Damage
Someone should add damage calculations for the Stardust Guardian. (anonymous user)

Minions
Might be worth mentioning on the article whether or not the Guardian takes up a space for the amount of Minions that can be summoned. As I do not yet have this armour, I can't say for sure 107.77.70.28 06:21, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Reference
Somebody edited it to claim that it is more likely to be a deference to Persona than a reference to Stardust Crusaders despite the fact that it is literally called Stardust Armor. Can somebody edit it to be the other way around? (anonymous user)
