Ah, yes... if you're playing through a new game, there is indeed only a small window of sorts. We're going to try and add a little something to the maildrake's scene to have you go check outside and talk to the blacksmith, next time.
Thanks for the feedback. Knowing this is a bit of an issue folks are running into, we'll do our best to try and work carefully around it next time.
Oh snap. I really missed this window? I have to go so far back just to get the armor. I've made hours of progress since then thinking Tuon would come back at some point. You need to add something to the forge that lets the assistant give you the armor if you turned in the scraps and missed that tiny gap to go to Tuon.
Tuon will also come back after you complete the quest "A New Source". That's not the only chance to get the 'skimpy armour'.
But yes, we plan to add a way to get a bigger window for players to acquire this armour BEFORE doing Tuon's quest. We recognise that the current method is more than a bit obtuse.
