Silk armour? - Guild Wars Forums

Prof Of Black · May 28, 2007, 12:34 PM // 12:34

I was looking on wiki for the new armour.

I found it, but I also saw 'Silk armour'

On the core section.

Can anyone tell me what armour this is?

Thanks,

~Prof.

As far as I know there is no "silk armour" but silk is used as a crafting material for many armours, although given the number of characters you have I'm 100% certain you already know that.

I tried to look through the Wiki's to see what you may have seen, but nothing popped out at me...

I can't find any "silk armor" either.

Are you sure that it's not just a piece of armor that requires silk? (have to make sure

)

OP is right in his observation WIKI do have another armor listed

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Monk_armor

It's at the bottom of the page under "Core armor" but has no details listed. I would also be very intrested in finding out any details about this as my legendry survivor monk is in the market for a new outfit

Silk armor is a PvP reward skin - Ive only seen the legs but as far as i can tell it looks like a 15k ascalon- armor....or it might just be an exisitng armor set...regal armor was just krytan =[

just checked Silk = krytan

other tan nostalga...wats the point of thse "new" (Silk, regal and pagan)

hmm, interesting. Thanks for the link. Nothing came up in searches. I guess it's one of those things that is important for PvP only characters but has no application for people who PvE...

On the old wiki http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Armor_types it explains that the names were originally used in beta and then discontinued. Some of the names, including Silk (monk), Regal (mesmer) and Pagan (necro) have been reused for the new PvP reward armor.

Thanks all for the info.

Looks like my Canthan born survivor will be getting Elite_Kurzick_armor after all.
