Guild Wars 2

You know what I think would be great? If the next armor sets you guys throw together don’t cost 800 gems apiece. Instead, they could come from a new title track in spvp and/or a new dungeon and/or badges of honor…

And It would also be cool if the next weapon set you put out had nothing to do with black lion tickets, but rather in-game content.

edit: thanks for the thread title change!

A new set of armour that wouldn’t be for gems at all would be a new thing to GW2.

10 k x “YES”.

Yes, I’d like this aswell.

Black Lion tickets are terrible, I hate them. I don’t mind gem armors as much, but it would be nice to see some armor sets make it into a reward track or something. Still waiting for the Tribal armor set, though.

By the way, I think petitions are against forum rules, so this may get trashed. Just a heads up.

Sea, yeah, I didn’t realize that… if a mod could change the title to “Discussion: Next Armor and Weapon Sets…”

That’d be great.

Also, would like to say… don’t mind gem store items either, cash flow is great for anet and me ’cause it keeps the game going… but I think we are due for some new, non-gem related sets! :o)

If I could click this 100 times I would. Please add new armor to the game and not to the gem store.

If they want to make money, Anet should bring back all those individual town clothes pieces from the past. Now that they can be used in conjunction with armor, they’d sell like hotcakes. That should satisfy them enough to warrant actual armor in-game.

They have been adding those just not as fast as gem store armor (They do need to make a profit after all). Radiant/hellfire, ls cosmetics, and the upcoming mistforged hero weapons.

Could you please list the new armors that have been introduced since launch that are available as drops?

Only ones are the really ugly ascended armor skins (and the wurm variant).

Everything else has been either back piece or one use helmet (though now we can spend t-charges to use it more than once).

Exclusive skins (weapons, armor, etc) for pve, pvp and wvw.

Those are all nice, but they either feel incomplete (radiant and hellfire sets… have they made the chest and leggings yet?) or are difficult to get because they’re dependent on so many other people (mistforged).

Not complaining about those, i think they’re nice, but it seems the majority of new items are gem store related, again, i appreciate the need for cash flow, but I would like a new, complete set of armor. Fractal Armor gets my vote, but I don’t think they’re keen on that… :o)

And a new weapon set that isn’t a retread of existing sets (teq, aetherized nightmare…), but completely unique and obtainable via content, not either gold farming for gems or buying gems directly…

In my opinion, Fractal Weapons, SAB Weapons, and Liadri (i know, not a weapon or armor) come to mind as great examples of content based vanity items… wish there were more of those!

Well SAB weapons were a great example too, gotta give them that.

yup, absolutely, added to the list!
