Time to change armor? - Guild Wars Forums

Greetings,

Simple question:

Im currently in Druid Overlook. My current warrior armor is 50. I saw in Beetletun that there's 59 armor. Will it make a bif difference or should I wait?

So you bought the Lion's Arch armor eh? You should be fine for the jungle treck in that. Your only about 6 or so missions from the next armorer who'll craft ya a much better set (70 I believe) in the desert.

in my opinion you can wait.

I usually go, ascalon city armor-->amnoon-->droks or citadel or grotto.(saves money and not a big difference.)

but if you think you are getting pummeled in that area and you can't seem to survive thru w/ current armor, then get it.

-cheers.

9 points of armor level reduces damage received by 14.4%.

Well, im still with the Gladiator Armor from Yak's Bend, wich is the same as the Gladiator Armor in Lion's Arch. (that was very disapointing)

So, in wich next city better armor are available? Henge or Denravi? or before that? or after?

Well it's up to you, but I wouldn't bother. Do the Missions for the Wilds and Bloodstone Fen then follow the Primary Quest to Ventari's Refuge. At Ventari's there is AL65 armor available. Nothing you hit in the next 2 missions will require you to have the AL59 armor over the AL50 armor so save your money and materials.

There is level 70 armor (I believe) at the collectors in the area you are in. If you don't mind putting in the time to find the items & the collectors, it is FREE and fun to explore. Then when you hit the desert, it's level 80 at the collectors (which you would not otherwise get until Droknar's Forge).
