I’d really like to see these armours and weapons in game. It was said in the early stages of development that anything seen in concept art would come to life in the game itself and so far that has been true for the vast majority of the game. However, these specific armours are ones that I am really missing. They all look fantastic, especially the two handed axe on the norn.

I don’t know if they are planned to be released as the upcoming legendary armour but I doubt it. What I’d really like is a message from a dev saying that they have no plans to release these armours in game or that they may be coming at some point. I’ve been looking out for them since the beta and I’m tired of waiting without any signs either way. Even a definite no would help as I can look towards other things and have some closure. If it’s a yes but they can’t say yes then a pm with an nda enclosed would be great, even if it is a bit ridiculous. I’ve been waiting 3 years for these and my hopes are dwindling.

It mostly seems to be concept art for cultural armour.

Each piece of art bears some resemblance to cultural armour to me, all except for the asura ones.

I think the statement made was that any armor seen on NPCs would become available in-game. Not any concept art armor.

I don’t believe that has happened yet, and may or may not ever be true. Still, pretty sure that’s what the statement was.

I thought that the ‘any NPC’ thing was in relation to adding Townclothes (and we see where that went).

Gone for good after Halloween 2Ø12.
A shame fun things could not simply be fun.
