Looking to offer feedback, however without you mentioning what kind of look or theme you are wanting I will be unable to do so. You say that armor “sucks” could you elaborate on what particular parts of it’s design you dislike? If not then there is nothing left to discuss because of a lack of your feedback. If so I will continue to see if there is a look you have missed or didn’t know about. Cheers!

Edit: Medium Armors are less attractive in general I believe due to player preference. Anet stated there will probably not be any new Charr armors because not enough of the playerbase plays charrs. I will assume they use a similar view when designing armors for types (Light Medium Heavy). From previous class popularity charts you can see there is a stronger preference for Heavy Armor / Light Armor classes over Medium classes. So in conclusion I think that there is less time / energy put forth on medium armors.

Two words..

getting tiger rank really opens up the doors for more outfits that aren’t a choice between jacket, jacket, jacket, jacket and jacket

ok i’ll be more specific.

Medium armors are basically trench coats and nothing new.

Nothing sparky, nothing aggressive without being garish ( like t3 cultural): they basically look all the same with some small differences.

If you take a look at other kind of armors ( heavy and light) they are basically totally different one from another, while the only way for a medium armor to be different is to be an Orrian ( the only one which is REALLY different from other armors) or Magitech to a lesser degree.

They’re unimaginative, boring and too similar.

In short: they suck.

If there’re people liking them some way or another it’s their choice, fact is that if you compare them to light/heavy, medium armors suck major balls.

not everyone wants to run sexist armor, not everyone has only female chars.

on topic:
almost every armor is a trench coat, just with different accessoires.
imo the focus of the designers lies too much in favor of female armor.
male armor in general deserves more love.

i would like to see more “trousers”
