Guild Wars 2

This is something the last big MMO I played did really well (FF11). You’d get parts of it from quests, grinding out badges, drops in special zones, etc. Each set of armor had a look just for that class that really showed off it’s style.

We have Race armor in GW2 right now but it is just a big guild grind to buy (or a huge cost of real money). I’d like to see Class armor gained from a quest chain some what like the personal quests but with quests designed around really pushing that skills of the class to the limit. Only those who truly master their class are able to get it.
Maybe do the 3 tiers thing too where the first tier is easy to get but to upgrade into more complex looks you need to clear harder and harder quests.

It’d be a nice option to aim for as an end game cosmetic option for those who really want to show off their class.

GW also had specific armour art for each Profession, and I approve of this suggestion.

Oh I did not know that. Even more reason to do something like this then. The only thing we have right now is the starting items we can pick from and those really don’t have the kind of “ya I am a X and anyone from a mile away can see my shining pride of it” flair that class armor does.

As long as they don’t look like crap sounds like a great idea.

I like this idea as well. While ranger, thief, and engineer all wear medium armor, it’s silly they all run around looking like pirates. The sexy armor a lot of thieves wear seems wrong for an engineer, and so forth.

Yeah, I REALLY like this idea.
