Q:

I am wearing Ravaging Arborist XXX armor. However, searches for_Arborist_ or Ravaging Arborist (levels 0 thru 80) on Black Lion turns up NOTHING (showing everything, not only available). That is, according to Black Lion search, the armor I am wearing does not exist.

I can’t figure where to fire this one, so I put it here. Feel free to flame away if you disagree.

I believe that is cultural armor and can only be found in the Grove and can only be used by Sylvari toons. Since it is bound on acquire, you will not find it on the trading post.

Yes, the arborist armor is the T1 sylvari cultural gear for heavy armor wearers. It can only be purchased from the T1 vendor in the Grove, and may not be traded or sold. T2 is Warden armor, and T3 is Oaken armor; they have different appearances.

If you wanted to upgrade the stats of your armor without changing the look, you will have to get different armor and use transmutation charges to put the arborist skins over your new armor in the wardrobe.
