Guild Wars 2

I think it’s about time Gw2 introduced new armors!
You can only mix so many armors together with each class to the point it’s boring.
I think that the few PvP armors that are unavailable should be added to PvE since a character model is already standing for them, so would a conversion be hard?
I hope in the future along with a new dungeon – the ‘flash’ dungeons as I call them, that are being introduced with these events -should also come armor with vendors; OR since that would be unfair to players who join later if its a non permanent dungeon/event and gw2 is all about ‘fairness’ then create new permanent dungeons in the future.

New armors for Gw2 please!!

With all the items introduced by the gem shop for a limited time, I think the “fairness” factor is gone. With the Living Story I hoped a new armors would be awarded or sold on the gem shop (even if it would have been probably ugly if SE and CoF armor are references), and then with the updates to South Sun, I’m still hoping.

But what we’ll get in the end are : gloves, breathing masks and shoulders. With none of those pieces looking good with most armors (especially the shoulders…what’s the point of those ? They are your typical symmetrical shoulder pieces…).

Expansion. I highly doubt there will be any real sets until an expansion. It’s sad, really.

And an expansion is off the table right now while they twiddle their thumbs with sign repair and temporary content half the people missed. All of this under the guise of a “story”. What a load, give us something real to do.

In before they add new armors via BLK Chests , since people buy these in drove.

Adding armor sets takes a lot more effort than adding weapons since each armor set has to be customized for each race and gender, plus there’s 6 pieces per set. This is why it’s always weapons, they’re simply cheaper to produce.

They’ll probably only add new armor sets with a major update.

Honestly… I wouldn’t ask for more armors if we have yet to fix the ones that are already in-game, like… armors that are displayed in the pvp locker (and you actually drop’em in pvp rewards) completely unavailable in PvE means.

Too many new weapons, not enough new armor.

I can’t help but think that this tapers off. I bought keys for the BLCs to get a fused ticket, but even getting one, I can’t help but feel I overspent. I’d feel worse if I didn’t get one, so I can’t see taking the risk again.

9 months into the game… people are still wearing outfits that are introduced since beta.. (looking @ you cof sets!!!)
maybe in a year and a half, they will put an armor set into RnG gambling gem store boxes for people to cash launder with.!

I wouldn’t even mind because an armor made available through the Black Lion Chests would probably be ugly. I’d prefer if it’s simply available in the gem shop.

If they don’t know what to do, they can simply add the old GW1 sets…and this time try to put the sets that the majority of the playerbase liked, not something no one wore like 1k Tormentor or the Ranger Krytan armor (which isn’t ugly, but not really th first thing that comes in mind when I think about medium armor classes in GW1). But this doesn’t mean that FoW armor would be a good choice…if it wasn’t for the HoM, I wouldn’t have had the tough choice of finding which one wasn’t as bad as the others >.>
