Order vendors shoud sell equipment to all !
this is literally the only impact choosing an order has on long term, they better not change it. instead, they should expand on it. give the orders their own minicampaign or something, something to justify picking an order, and this time, something that sticks for more than 20 levels before disappearing in the broken story structure of “NEW CHOICE TIME, everything you’ve made so far doesn’t matter anymore!”
Disagree.
As Bruno said, it makes your order choice impactful.
From a storyline reason, it also doesn’t make that much sense. It’s like the US asking the Russians if they can run around in their military uniforms after the successful alliance in World War II.
I can side a bit with Bruno on that one. I chose Vigil as my order but only later I learned that their light armor looks the way they looks while Priory’s and Orders’s are very good looking. Maybe quest in which our order sends us to negotiate with other orders and we temporary join other “teams”?
i think a simpler solution is just show people all 3 armor options in full during the envoy questline. like, have each representative be followed around by two NPCs that don’t say anything, but wear different armor types of the same order.
There has to be some restrictions like this. Otherwise, if all can wear the same armors, wield the same weapons or even worse, all weapons, will not make distinctions between each character we see in the world They can be easy just clones that dress us and have the same weapons. The more restrictions, the better for the sake of diversity..
I would personally add profession specific armors so a warrior will have a different armor choice them a guardian
Whats wong with you trolls ?
Go on other post or make your own!
This has nothing to do with story!
What if you like vigil armor but you also like priory weapons?
Why should players be forced to pick vigil story only because it has good armor?
And beside i took vigil on my guardian and now i cant get cool looking priory shield -what shoud i do reroll and go again ? And i have priory on my alt ,got account acheavement but still cant buy armors.
Look around your world you will see that every vigil looks exactly same ,so your clone story is fairytale,look around La and you will see that everyone runs around with COF armors. Clone Wars 2,this woud give so needed diversity.
Trolls and roleplayers find another post pls,and for normal people put out options !
A disagreeing opinion does not a troll make, Riellan.

I gotta agree with this (except calling them trolls). I went Vigil on my warrior, but want to use the whisperer rifle skin, but I can’t. I like the Vigil armor, but don’t really like any of their weapons. We should be able to choose from multiple groups.
Please give us a keyring…
what i did to access all the orders armory, i made 3 characters and made all the quest with each order, then i transmuted it and gave it to my other characters’ opposing order,
Beside SPvP players are not limited by story and order choices,they can choose whatever they like ,nether should players who level 80lvls and done all those story quests!
Little equality please !

I’d love this too. Maybe a few different sets to emphasise playstyle somehow. I did put a suggestion thread up somewhere.
As everyone else says, it’s about choices and compromise, and them choices having a tangible consequence, in this case, only being able to select one Order armour and weapon skin.
Time is a river.
The door is ajar.

How did you transmuted soulbound item ?
I tried that as well but it did not work!
Maybe they should have put it as soulbound on equip,or soulbound items should work like in spvp- AGAIN WE NEED EQUALITY !

you can transmute it using the normal npcs armory “white items” just dont wear it,
when im off at work ill let you see a vigil orderd character wearing a mix of vigil and order of whispers armors
Thats more like exploiting the system that should be changed since current doesnt make any sense!
have you ever tried giving the assassin hood to your engineer or ranger, thats the same process,
if you look at different screen shots of different ranger threads, they are wearing assassins hood
this is just to site how transmutation works.
just in case, may i ask you, you dont want to create another toon and do quest of another order? you just need to make it until level 40+ quest to access their armory, its not that tedious
I agree that all orders should sell to us, granted that the game has been completed. We are commanders of the Pact at the end so why not? While being commander does not mean we are part of each order it should give us some privileges to all the orders. I do believe that this should not just be a retroactive add-on but perhaps a new quest line like a trial or initiation.
I must admit that the only reason I feel this way is because when making my first few characters I had no idea what the armors or the weapons looked like. Although it is my fault I still do not like the idea of having 2 armor and weapon sets completely unattainable after one very early point in the game.
Actually, I feel they should let us able to unlock but in a special way: we didn’t get to see those personal-story-quest either what happened in there, so here’s my idea: give us the ability to unlock such orders by joining parties with people entering their personal stories contributing to their quests and thus unlocking those achievements, I’ll help that order, even if it’s not my story.
They should have two prices.
A cheaper one for the order you choose, and after you have reached a certain point in your personal story, the rest would have the armor available, but for a much higher price.
Otherwise you won’t be able to mix their armors, and we’ll lose some nice combinations.
I agree.
The armor itself isn’t symbolic anymore after the Order’s arc. After you get to level 80, all three orders becomes the Pact. You forget that you were a Vigil member, and then you start knowing that you are a Pact member. The armor itself is nothing but cool-looking armor.
If the Order’s story went to level 80, then I’ll have to disagree with the thread.
4x Necromancer, 3x Mesmer, 4x Guardian, 4x Thief, 4 Revenant
I agree.

there are implications everywhere that the orders will split again, and hopefully that does happen, because it would mean spending more time with your order again, re-adding value to what was supposedly the most important choice in your story.
Once again people ,i am not discussing a story ,those armors are like any other apperance only armor in game ,nothing special except they cost 1.5-5 gold and give you yellow stats.
So this post has NOTHING TO DO WITH STORY its all about armors and weapons that i should be able to get since sPvP players can have all.
If i am willing to pay gold and do story ,i should be equaly worthy as pvp player that will craft that armor or weapon.
Its like saying people should not be able to wear COF armor because they do not belong to Flame Legion!
It doesn’t matter if you’re a hero, you’re not a member of their order. The order armour is their uniform.
The Pact is just an alliance, you aren’t a member of all the orders.
It makes no sense to wear other people’s uniforms.

The CoF armour is made available to you as the spoils of war after killing a lot of Flame Legion in their citadel. It’s not being sold to you by the Flame Legion. Crucial difference.

And killing all those undead and saving world does not make me fit to wear their uniform ?
Simple bound on equip would solve all problems.
As i said roleplayers you do not have to wear all “uniforms”,but for me give me equality with sPvP guys.
I do not play gw2 to invent hot water like many roleplayers do (wich is fine,let people do what they like) ,i eaven skiped half of story ,thats how much kittens i give about it,all i want is god kitten armour.
