Guild Wars 2

Title says it all really. About 80% of armour vendors flog the starter armour. A complete new comer to this game might believe there was no other armour in the game. Half of the armour involves long skirts over leggings, which is so dull. If the armour isn’t completely covering you up like a nun, then it’s revealing a ton of flesh (just my opinions of course) – hardly anything in between. Like the light armour set similar to Anise’s that seems to have been cut from the game even though it’s the nicest set out there IMO. Karma vendors often only have one piece of a set of armour, and there’s no way to tell which vendors sell armour and which don’t.

PLEASE add some more varied armour to the vendors and make it easier to get different armour at lower levels. Adding more armour would be brilliant too, but I know that’s very unlikely.

I support this. I posted a thread on another forum complaining about the lack of low level armor variety. I only get to play the game 2-3 hours a day and after rerolling my character a couple times to change my hairstyle and some other stuff, I spent quite alot of time at sub-30 levels. The armor down here is very boring and presents a drab scene for incoming players.

Now, I understand that aesthetic = progression (in this game more than any other), but still. I’m essentially forced to wait until lvl 35 when I can equip my Tier 1 cultural armor. And then only because I’m Norn, and happen to like mine (I think the Human / Sylvari T1s are lame).

The only reprieve is coming from Heart vendors, who provide one piece at a time, which are very quickly replaced. Copper and Iron armor sets look identical. Most drops at these levels look just like the starting set.

There’s no reason that 95% of the available armor between levels 1-35 all look the same. I understand they should be “low level” “a bit drab” “not as cool as the best gear”. But c’mon. Give us a LITTLE variety.

dont give us a little variety, give us a lot of variety, Seems like half the armor doesnt look halfway ascetically pleasing. And making ‘armor classes’ just reduces the armor variety. I think I’ve found one or two armors that i like and maybe a combination or two that i like. they dont even have to be revealing.
