@Kopper: It would be nice for it just to be the smidgest of smidgest more conservative because some of us are uncomfortable and/or find it distasteful with all that is showing in the chest area. This is by far the skimpiest armor in that area. I think all other armor sets look perfectly fine. This one just pushes it a smidge too far. Just a few mm more cloth and I’d be 100% cool with it (still wouldn’t buy it, though because the blue goes with none of my characters).
Edit: Take a look at other armor sets (using human as reference):
http://www.gw2armorgallery.com/human-light.htm
http://www.gw2armorgallery.com/human-medium.htm
http://www.gw2armorgallery.com/human-heavy.htmhttp://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Category:Gem_Store_armor_sets (you’ll have to click each one to compare)
Can’t you see, that if you take out the blue (or think the blue is your skin – which is a valid thought, and one that I think), that it is FAR skimpier there than any other armor set?
but maybe it being the skimpiest armour set is a good thing? All armour shouldn’t be covering and all armour shouldn’t be skimpy. This one is skimpy, the next one that they should release should be covering. The more variety the better.
More variety is better, but, part of my point is that it is and can certainly push some people’s comfort zone due to where the skimp is, not that it’s skimpy.
Everyone knows we’re going to be seeing skimpy armors. I’d personally like seeing an armor that had an open back, showed some leg, showed some midriff, and some arm… but not… that much of the chest area :/ On the set I’d like I’d like the chest to be at least as covered as Raven Shaman (which we can’t get >_<).
Some people comfort zone. Not everyone’s.
I’m willing to bet that if we were to really search, we’d still find someone on this game that still thinks women shouldn’t be allowed to show cleavage or shouldn’t be allowed to wear pants.
For better or worse, society is changing, today’s swimsuits would be extremely inappropriate 200 years ago.
Well, again, I’m fine with this, however, if you are going to add nipples, at least place them correctly on the breasts. Currently as shown in the picture above, they’re really not anatomically right.
I still don’t get what are people so upset about the armor?
The fact that you can see the form of breasts?
How come people no longer complain about Phalanx female armor?
You can search the forum, some of the people claimed it to be extremely inappropriate and too revealing.
Equip defensive stuff and spam 1. Scale eents up so they are harder.
Briliant!just like everyone else does!
I am sorry to say but WHAT the heck?!?! you have 2k gems 400 gold and not one 20 slot crafted bag, no bag expansion slots open, no WvW siege, only 1 set of armor/weapons
this tells me you are missing out on at at least 70% of the game.
but grats on having a decent amount of gold and gems
please go get some bags so you can hold more stuff!
" This guy is my WvW roamer so he doesn’t need that much space."
They should had done what they did during the Queen’s Pavilion, let the less skilled players zerg below and add challenge arenas above.
Yes. As if individual skilled mattered in large scale zerging.
Remember the marionette fight? Remember 4/5, Bearbows and other not so good players failing the event?
1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1,1, 1.
The sad part is that it’s not even a big zerg, was done during the night.
They still haven’t fixed racial elites.
Here’s a not so wild assumption. They’re sending the surveys to the people who post the best and positive things on the official forums, negative feedback posters get nothing.
Looks exactly like on medium settings.
Can anyone post a screenshot with the armor on maxed out settings?
Huge Feature Update:
Buy Gems faster and easier.
More gem store locked areas.
More guild features sold in gem store.
Precursor hunt added via gem store.
Yuki Honestcrest?
Yuki?
That’s a Japanese name isn’kitten
I thought Arena Net was against everything that’s related to Asia.
I have no problem with exposing human anatomy whatsoever, however, if you’re adding nipples, at least make them correctly.
They’re supported on sides.
But anyway, I play on medium/high, and I can’t see anything on my Guard
Whatever those things are supposed to be, nipples are not that highu unless the breasts are pushed up.
Could you provide the link please?
Is it any different from 0/0/20/30/20 Healway Build?
Breasts are only sex objects if you yourself perceive them to be that.
I still remember how people complained about Phalanx armor showing some bare skin on legs, whatever happened to that?
Races will seek new allies, and Tengu will help.
One character.
/zodiacarmor
Nipples can not be seen.
Allow me to change the blue color.
I tried mixing it Phalanx armor and Primeval armor – it just doesn’t fit with anything else.
I think the Armor is designed decently, however not being able to color it differently is not a good idea. It will get old quickly.
If we could change the blue color to something else keeping the “star” effect, that would be perfect.
The Sky Dye is weird though, it looks exactly like the original blue tone on the armor in the customization panel, however when you’re playing the game it looks a bit whiter. May be just my settings.
Sky Dye. I think.
I have all the other armor variations, starting from zerkers to healway, today I decided to finally get PVT armor.
Anyone knows a good build with a decent DPS and high survivability? Mainly for groups 5+. I’m never solo roaming.
Here’s a question.
Would you consider buying the new armor if you could change the blue tone to a different color?
Alright. I did end up buying the set.
It looks decent, except for the Boots – what are those sharp things supposed to be?
The blue color and effect is nice, but I’m willing to bet I’ll get tired of it rather quickly.What dye did you use? looks really good on it.
Abyss Dye.
Midnight Fire dye makes the skirt even more darker.
Alright. I did end up buying the set.

Hold on a sceond… Maybe the new drill will make a tunnel to Cantha!?
Should they make an armor that fully covers all the “curves” then?
So male and female can’t be distinguished?
The whole update screams “Queen’s Pavilion 2.0”.
It’s a huge zerg fest. Follow the group and spam auto attack while watching TV on other screen.
Why? What’s wrong with exposing the form of breasts or legs, or skin?
When I’m doing life drawing classes, none of the people are laughing at nude models or get disgusted after seeing male genitalia.
Quite frankly I find these complaints quite childish.
Now,whether the ascetics are done good or not, that’s a different question.
There’s nothing wrong with exposing “breasts”, it’s the people who oversexualize them.
And yes, I would buy the set if you allow me to change the blue color wich looks absolutely hideous.
If you can’t write a good story. Blow something up. Spectacularly.
Except Michael Bay could write a better story.
It doesn’t even matter that the new set isn’t all that grat looking, it’s a matter of principle.
Honestly people how many sets can you wear at any given time anyway!? I don’t know which game, or who/where it was ever said that MMO’s HAVE to periodically bring in new wep/armour skins. Even having 7 alts and my main I can’t see myself using ALL of what was made available at the start of the game. Mind you I understand how most of what there are does not look so great, but still…
All the new armor sets are only available in the gem store, that’s the problem.
I’d rather wait a whole year with 0 new content and pay 60$ for a new expansion with tons of different new armors, dungeons and real new content.
800 gems will be 75G. And the prices will just keep going up.
18 months – 1 new non gem store armor set.
Slow down Arena Net, slow down!
Thank you Arena Net.
Now, how about adding a new armor set that is acquirable without gem store or long grind?
Want to see the new armor.
Delays happen, however screwing over EU player base is, well, not nice.
Make the new LS end sooner for NA as a compensation.
So no update today?
It’s 21:08 here.
If Living Story was a Bonus Mission pack (like in GW1) I would never buy it, even if it was 5$.
When we get 3000 posts maybe some dev will come and post a single sentence reply on Cantha.
