Guild Wars 2

Hello. I hope I’m not being a bother to anyone by asking this, but I saw a player with the shown armor, but I could not seem to find it on the wiki. Looking at the character’s class, they were an Elementalist, so it’s obviously light armor. I also looked through all the available outfits, but none seemed to fit, unless I’m letting the color scheme blind me.

Anyway, does anyone know what armor/(outfit?) this is?

I think that’s light carapace armour.

Yup. Definitely carapace armour, but without the shoulders and helm. Shoulders look like winter’s presence, helm looks like one of the starter pieces.

IMO not carapace but luminescence armor.

Ah, okay. I’m guessing then that, unless it pops up in the Gem Store at some point, it will be impossible to get, since it was a Living Story set?

No, you can still get it trough collections.

Not quite. You can still get all the carapace pieces without living story, but the collections to get bioluminescent require the trinkets that you get by completing the living story achievements.

Also just in case it’s unclear it only requires Season 2 of the Living Story, which is still playable.

If you don’t have it unlocked you’ll have to buy it (200 gems per chapter), but after that it will be accessible on all your characters forever and you can do the achievements for luminescent armour.

Cool! Thanks for the help, guys!

I think you can still buy the missing LS2 chapters in bulk at a 20% discount.

I don’t think you can get base carapace without LS2 either. Not all of it, anyway. It comes as rewards from LS2 chapters. On the plus side, the chapters aren’t that hard to complete and you get your choice of armor weight each time, so taking three alts through the story gets you most of it. The coat is a drop from Vinewrath and is only guaranteed on your first VW kill, so you could finish the collection in three VW’s, or in thirty.
