GW2 - Medium Armour Lacklustre?
I personally like the Glorious and the Asura T1 cultural armors.
But yeah, pretty much every medium armor are trench coats.
(and the other 8 elite specs maxed too)
You are not wrong, 95% of medium armor is trench coats! Males only have 1 tight leather armor, and it’s the one from the spvp reward track (glorious armor) females have 3 (Glorious, Sneakthief and the Krytan one from the gem store), everything else is jerkings or tunics, no tight leather for us! seriously wish they would add more medium armor variety!
As nemitri said. My ranger uses sneakthief while my thief uses heritage, but too many of the armors are trench coats which really limits the variety.
Yes, Medium Armor is horrible and widely hated. Anet continues to make the same style constantly clearly showing they don’t care. The designers are probably so offended at this point that he/they just keeps doing it to spite us for disliking it.
I run Charr – Medium armour have been a BIG Lackluster since day 1… with almost only coats, coats and mora coats. I think there are TWO chestpieces for charr that are not coats……
I also find the lack of proper fitting boots for asura quite annoying despite there being a system in place that allows per-race models. Some of the boots almost look like they purposly made the kitten toes stick out, or worse, they just hide the toes all together.
Medium armor only has ONE proper boot, the T3 Cultural armor, while heavy has THREE, being all the cultural armors, and light armor has zip.
They already spend time making custom models for the many of the asura versions of armors, so why are boots magically left out?
At this point I would flipping pay to get some decent boot options.
