So I realized today that there have been ZERO new armor skins added since release outside of the gem store. Lots of new weapon skins, but no new armor skins at all.

I realize that armor skins are probably an order of magnitude more work than weapon skins, but…..are we going to see some new options? Like, ever? Please?

This has been around for some time now:

This shows that some kind of steam-punk armor, and a mouth of sauron like helm are in the works (it also show already released content).

It could always end up being town clothes, but to me they look very armorish.

i beleave in a Dev post that it takes to much reasorces to make a armor skin because it needs to be for light medimum and heavy and also you got to take in acount for race and clipping issues. a weapon is easy to bring to the table.

But a hundred weapon sets isn’t worth 1 armor set for players who don’t really care about their weapons :/ (or who at least found the one they love)

well i really care about my weapons and weapon and armor skins are huge for me i easly dumped in close to 50g+ just for weapon skins i bought zerker wapons with CoF tokins then bought skins from the Trading post like winged sparta. and bow of the white heart those are just a few ill name. but yes i love my weapon skins. now armor skins is a hole nother topic im a big fan of unique armor aka mix and match. on my mesmer i have CoE legings Whispers chest HoTW boots and arm guards. and sholder i have outriders. the issue is most male light armor is Meh but femail light armor on Humans is awsome. the T3 holey crap wow i love it. medimum armor is ok i am a fan of trench coats lol. heavy for female’s is eathor skimpy (pit Fighters) or coverd (dragonic) thats pretty much what you get. so yes i would love to see new armors. but they got a lot on their plate from bug fixes to the scavenger hunt (If they will ever release it) to WvW polish Pve Culling skill bugs (Mesmer GS skill 4) and lets not forget dragon bash.

They need to release a bunch of armor sets at once, because if they just add one, EVERYone will be wearing it. Which would be good at a sales standpoint because people don’t have options to pick from but from style standpoint would be saddening.
