It seems that this is Vabbian 5k armor from the Bazar.

And please to whomever mentioned the battles at the end of the game.
Keep it to themselves or put a spoiler warning in there.

SebaZ · Oct 31, 2006, 12:43 AM // 00:43

Is it just me or do those look an awful lot like dead sting rays? Dervish gets revenge perhaps? oO?

Thank you for posting your pic, however I really need the shot to be taken from the start screen. The two main reasons that I want this is:

1) The start screen provides the best shot you can get as it gives an absolute close up and has the best/very good lighting.

2) It proves (as much as possible) that the armor is yours and not someone you happened to walk by, or ripped from another site.

I also need the shot to include the helm. It may be hideous, but this isn't a beauty expose, it's a gallery to show what the armors look like.

In the meant time I will link to it, and wait for the above or someone else to post one.

Thank you very much though once again. I do really appreciate you guys posting your stuff here. ^_^

Is there a headpiece for this?

Because it isn't. It may be a high-end armor, but it isn’t 15K. We call the Elite Canthan armors 15k armors, even though they cost a lot more than that when you include the Jade or Amber, the cash price is 15K, thus the title 15K armor. In NF the Elite Sunspear is the equivalent as the title is based on the cash price not the material price.

I do realize that the 5K armor is more expensive, but I'm basing it more on merit than price. As far as I know, the 15K versions are the last armors available besides the end game stuff, and that's why I chose them to base the gallery on, also based on the precedence of the previous 15K armors.

Truth be told I know very little about Nightfall as even though I played in the preview event, preordered the collectors edition, and was online the minute the servers were up, I've put a lot more time into these threads, making guides than I have actually playing, as such I can only go on what I know.

At this point I have no idea where you get the 5K armor from, how far in the game you have to be to get it, what makes it different from the 10K armor or the 15K armor (besides materials), how far in you have to be to get the 10K armor, or even how far in you have to be to get the 15K. If you would like to supply me with this information I would be grateful.

At this point I didn't want to include any other armors more for the fact that the OPs are going to be very graphic intensive as is, considering that when the gallery is done there will be 36 different screenshots in the OPs. You have 10 professions (currently 8 until they include Sin and Rit), 2 sexes, and 2 different armors for each, plus 4 for Derv and Para FOW. Thus adding any more would just be insane. As is, I am going to have to move some of the professions up into the OP once the second post starts filling up.

When I have the information I just spoke of (concerning 5K and 10K armor) I will see about including them as well.

One question: Why don't you want Vabbi Armor? That armor is more expensive than this 15k!

Have you read the post above yours? If not, go do it now, and then reread the OP...

Thank you and great work all and Livingston.

Thank you boxterduke. ^_^

I was working on it for 7 hours straight yesterday. I was awake for a little over 36 hours yesterday (Australian time) as I did all of this after getting home from a nightshift, and I had two days off including yesterday (Can't waste the time with something so dreary as sleeping :P). This entailed setting up the formatting for materials and how the lay out was going to look, adjusting the OP to include comments about what I was seeing in the thread, PMing members about their armor and the ways that they were posting it, cutting and reformatting people's screenshots so they were jpgs, or resizing them so they aren't huge, or so the formatting looks good (the Mesmers), translating the materials and armor names that were posted into the formatting that I came up with, adjusting the formatting as I went so it looked better, and then actually posting the pics into the OPs. So it may not seem like much more is going on than simply copying and pasting links into a few posts and adding a couple bold names, but it definitely is. I think it's looking pretty good so far though, so I think the trouble is well worth it.

^ The 15k Sunspear is availible after two or three quests on the mainland. Vabbian and 10k come later.

And yes I agree that this thread looks much better (and easier to use) then the 15k Cantha sister.

So you get the 15K armor earlier than the other armors?

>_<

Which comes first between the 5K and the 10K?

Livingston

SnipiousMax · Oct 31, 2006, 04:48 AM // 04:48

I've not progressed very far past the 15k Sunspear... but I believe it goes:

15K SS ----> Jeweled 5k -----> 10k ------> 15k EG

But four types of armor for all classes and both sexes will be pretty heavy on the first page.

Yeah I'll have to break them down into different threads. But I'll gather them all here.

Is the EG endgame?

And thanks for the info.

I doubt you will count this, but here's my progress on the 15k Male Necro Sunspear armor. I've yet to buy the Face Scar or Gloves, but I have the rest of it to show off along with the item data.

Ignore the gloves. They are Kurzick.

No not yet. I may link to it when next I have time to do updates. When you do get the full set, could you include a write out of the materials needed so I can copy and paste them?

What is Bone Palace in relation to the 10K armor?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Yes, you get the 10k armor from the Bone Palace. From what I saw with my necro though it requires a small amount of an expensive material (Monsterous parts for me) that boost the price to about the same as 15k
