The ones that usually wears 15K to Vabbian happen to atleast play then with a better sense of dignity...to the points monks aren't feeling they wasted all there energy trying to save the oblivious and suicidal assassin.

for as wrong as she may sound, its the best solution in wiether deciding if an assassin should be accepted or cut. Dervishes are also about to stand right next to them too. Anyone notice how most of the new dervishes that reached the gate of pain die fast cause they still wear their unruned starter armor, but that's for another thread.

I dont hate sins, there are some that have good builds that they have put time and work into making but the most I have come across are just brainless BoA wiki builds with lots of attitude, that are jerks to most others. I am not saying all sins are jerks but most I have come across are loud mouth cussing jerks that have an easy wiki build and wont listen to any sort of strategy... arggo everything around them then bring the mess back home begging to get healed. I have played with some really good sins with some really good unique builds, those are the ones I will take on a missions, quest, AB, HoA anytime but they are far more rare than panda mini pet. I dont hate the class but I do hate the class of many of the people that play them. ( I do not want to offend anyone and dont take it personal, this is just an honest observation)
A good sin can really help out any party as long as they get over themselves, be a team player and do their job... shut up for a few seconds understand that the goal is not about them but about team effort.

Phantom Flux, 15K armor doesn't mean your a good assassin, it means your good at (or just waste all your time) Farming.

high end armor = farmer.
high end armor =/= good player.

if high end armor meant anything, then we'd have a hoard of rockin wammos in this game. every other warrior is in FoW, 15k Primeval, or 15k Kurz.

skill bar > armor on the quality detection meter.

Agreed

I have several suits of armor for different builds, I can not afford all high end armor. and with the runs being bought and the money being bought off website anyone can get high end armor with out even playing much at all.
I know a guy who has no clue about the game nor about anything other than farming... sure hes rich but will I take him into battle with me during endgame missions? No way! to get high end armor all ones needs to do is farm and farm and farm they dont need to know their build nor know the skills they use (yes the high end farmers know their build and skills but not all farmers are high end farmers) some will just go and farm outside Lions Arch over and over and over again, get a run to droks get armor and then farm more never even thinking about learning the game nor the skills that come with it. And for the end game Faction or Nightfall armor many just find a good group that will carry them there, (if not buy one) or pug and pug and pug till they get it... farmers are a pacent group of people.... Armor does not show the ablity of a player.

Could you guys stretch the words any farther? We're talking mainly about taking the risk of recruiting an assassin. PVE wise, when you've beaten a campaign several time and are actually taking the time to do it over again, to maybe get masters, you want to get it over with quick. Most of time you do find yourself recruiting an assassin (sadly also a dervish these days), you find yourself doing it this time. If you enjoy repeating missions such as the torment version, I guess its ok, but if you're the type that just wish to get done with it then yeah, time to give some high standards.

I can deal with basic armor wearing wammos, shady, yet terribly played monks, even vampire touching necros, but I seem to cringe t poorly played assassins, especially the ones crossed over to nightfall and prophecies. Midway through Factions I am a little lenient since most sin players around are rookies, but the ones that shouldve been past that.....geez. So yeah armor and build prejudice comes in.

Ascended armor idicates a variety of things. However, in the assassins case it usually shows how well they've been used. not all the time, but 88%/%100 of the time.

too bad the only benefit for an assassin to beat nightfall is the proto title, razah, a non-henchmen provided, elitist mission area and no assassin (or ritualist) end game armor and for that.....thank you anet for making it a waste of time for non core faction characters in nf and vice versa for the paragon and dervish. but not to stay way off track as I just did, the assassin player community has established this harsh req like it or not.

Well there are some nice end of game daggers, it's not a waste of time to get an assassin past nightfall, I did it for the sake of it, because I like my assassin. Personally I question if you should be playing this game, since all you seem to care about are looks, titles and other vain goals, I too cringe at bad assassins, therefore I may have to cringe around you Flux. As Mokone very well put it, noob.

end game weapon? so what. It takes a good player to achieve titles such as protector of tyria, elona and factions under the requirements to obtain the majority of them - especially elona and factions since you can't run them and for an assassin its major since the expectations for them are low (otherwise a thread like this wouldn't exist.

most of the people who are angry at my statements know its true. deal with it. these "elite" players do it all the time and for as bad as it is it does prevent a waste of time. all I did was bring the issue in a post which may if not already have become the official way to recruit an assassin player. just be lucky if the team you are on happen to be players who don't have factions.

everytime I use my sin I'm always assumed that I might tank. that's understandable because they just met me and most sins do tank. after I'm done with them compliment do pour in.

So I'm not a noob. just pretty aware and honest about what goes on.

Reading your dramatic flamboyance on this thread and every thread you post on, you seem to throw the ordinary, dorky, 16 year old acting noob insult around. In your case it don't just mean you can't deal with a blunt disagreement, but how ordinarily immature to handle you're just wrong.

My arguement is not that your a noob (but you might be), but that your very VAIN (Which is one of the 7 deadly sins and what not). I know about elitists, and I know that it's attitudes like yours that cause it.

"You don't have 15K armor, you noob."
"You don't have xx rank, you noob."
"You don't have (whatever), you noob."

Just accept that no one decent agrees with your "Armor = skill" Views. As far as I care, your just one of the elitests that cause the problems for those who just wanna have fun.

Wanna know another reason why I hate you Flux? Because you act like an idiot 16 year old yourself, last time I saw you, twas in an AB match, dispite your team losing you went on showing on how you "owned us" Dispite you ultimatly losing(I don't forget things easily). It really sounds like your better than the normal assassin (sarcasim by the way)

In conclustion, your no better than them W/Mos in FoW armor with req 8 crystalline swords who flash a deer in your face and deny others opinions just cause they don't look as good as you. Something that is truely loathesome.

Assassin 15k armor means you've actually played the game to get that far, and didn't get run, Which means you might know the class better than some new player.

But apart from that, armor means nothing.

That's true, but getting to the point where you assume someone without 15K armor isn't good, is just sad.

Exactly correct. I buy the armor style I like most, no matter the cost. I like 1.5K kurz until NF. I'd hate to think I was a noob because I didn't like any 15K armors...

[email protected] lol I didn't have to predict this from coming. no wonder why no one can take you serious. when you can't get your facts straight, you lie.

I haven't ab'd in a long time and if I have you couldn't recall if I was a kurzick or luxon.

now lets talk some truth about you. clearly you like the assassin as the rest of us, but you aren't rich enough to try and get what you want. could you're jealously get any louder. I can tell you get rejected and blamed at from many teams and this idea of armor discrimination would be the cherry on top of your cake, just based off your comments.

Vain or not, atleast I can speak the truth. if I wasn't a thread like this wouldn't be created.

so sadly yeah, armor discrimination for the assassin could be the only way to go to prevent a time bomb such as yourself on the team.

for me to not to favor the boa sin and actually have some non core pves, I'm definitely not an elitist.

I think the noob is the person with only one set of armor that they use for everything. 15k is nice to look at, but if you don't carry a change you are probably a noobtard.

I'm with you. I've been wondering if anet would create an armor tab storage since you got different functualities for different builds.

however. certain readers got this twisted or just twisting on purpose.

I'm not talking about putting all classes through the armor judgement.....just the assassin. 15k armor worn on a core class don't mean much especially if the armor is from tyria sine you can run or get ran there.

LOL! That's right. If the assassin doesn't have that or a frosty crown, not good enough.
