Default I liked the old names a little better

I know anet wanted to make everyone happy by making armor inscribable in other campaigns, but I hate the fact that they messed with the names of things. This isn't a big complaint, but it is a loss of coolness factor if you ask me. Would it be possible for the name of an insignia to change depending on what kind of armor it was put on?

Once the system is set for the old armors, you'll get things like 'Bonelace Radiant Armor'...

So they'll probably have to change some names, so armors have not the same name of insignia...

So this is pointless.

This has actually been mentioned in the update notes.
It's interesting what you can learn from it just by READING them.
Less whining perhaps?

My 15k druid's armor went from "Druid's Vest of Major Vigor" to "Radiant Elite Druid's Vest of Major Vigor".

Longer name, but no complaints here.

I'm quite happy enough that insignias can be retroactively fitted on older sets now that I'm sort of content on the name changes. I agree, I like them somewhat less than before, but i simply like things as they are now more generally speaking for it to bother me so much.

What, you don't like how it's now called "Knight's Templar Armour"? Frankly I don't mind, plus some of the new names are much better.

Eh, the new names aren't "bad," we were all just so used to them that the new ones sound wierd. We'll get used to it after a while.
