I’m still learning about gear here in GW2 so my question is…..I just hit level 80 and I have a TON of karma saved up. Didn’t spend a single point while leveling.

I have found my faction armor vendor (Order of Whispers) where I can buy the faction armor for gold coins.

What about the Karma armor vendors I hear about?

What is better, should I spend the gold on the faction armor or the karma at the karma vendors?

Also, where are the karma vendors located for level 80?

Help facilitate an enjoyable experience! Be nice to others!

The above mentioned karma vendors sell exotic armor, so far the best item type. The order armor is only of rare quality so it’s one tier worse; imo only buy those if you like the look to transmute exotic gear to that look.
However the karma vendors only sell armor with three different stat combinations, and at least for one of those stat combinations they don’t sell a full armor set.

In the end you’ll want to buy/craft at least one piece of armor.
