The Answer To Your Level 20 Armor Questions - Guild Wars Forums

RoxorMcownage · Apr 30, 2005, 10:09 AM // 10:09

UPDATED WITH DETAILED NAMES. I WOULD LIKE TO SUBMIT THIS TO THE FAQ SOMEONE TELL ME HOW.

Where to get it?

Droknar's Forge

How do I get there?

(SPOILER ON WHAT TO DO)

Well it starts from sailing across the ocean to 'The Amnoon Oasis' from 'Sanctum Cay', then you have to get to 'Augury Rock' where you have to do 3 diff missions in 3 diff directions(north- 'Elona Reach', South-'Dunes of Despair', East-'Thirsty River'(the fun one)) after you do ALL 3 of them, then you fight your mirror image, then you have to defeat 6 facets in the 'The Dragon's Lair' mission, then you are there.

Any questions while Im standing around in there?

Freyas · Apr 30, 2005, 10:42 AM // 10:42

There's also another way to get there, though it's not for the fainthearted or weak.... you can head into the Lornar's Pass area from Beacon's Perch(where you get dumped after finishing Frost Gate), and hike south through the mountains.... however, that way is probably about 10x harder than going through the missions in order until you get there....

But yeah, once you get to Droknar's Forge in the Southern Shiverpeaks, you can get the top-level armor, and start fighting the big baddies.

I just posted because everyone asks(and i wondered before i figured it out), but no one answers...so i did.

this needs to go into the faq or the post on retail changes. Thanks for info.

How do I submit it to the FAQ? I will get detailed names.

Patrick · May 02, 2005, 04:24 AM // 04:24

The armor found there is the absolute possible best at this time? I See max of 60 for Enchanter, thought I'd heard there was one with 65?

P.

RoxorMcownage · May 02, 2005, 04:31 AM // 04:31

Yes its the absolute best

Ollaolas · May 02, 2005, 05:19 AM // 05:19

Question:

Is that armor the kind a PvP only character starts with?

Tyveil · May 02, 2005, 05:48 AM // 05:48

Only one type of level 20 armor? Great I guess everyone at level 20 will be wearing the same thing (though dyed differently). What variety.

RoxorMcownage · May 02, 2005, 06:24 AM // 06:24

No theres like 6 types there....but theyre the best.

And yes its the armor pvp only chars make.

Elfis · May 02, 2005, 08:56 PM // 20:56

They have no regal armor for mesmers though! I want regal. Where is it?

Here's a link with maps for these quests (scroll down):

http://gw.gamona.de/forum/showthread...r +Weissagung

its german

anyway - it should give you some hints and I give you a quick translation:

Missions:
Elona Reach = Elonaspitze
Thirsty River = Durstiger Fluss
Dunes of Despair = D??nen der Verzweiflung

Cities:
Augury Rock = Fels der Weissagung
The Amnoon Oasis = Die Oase Amnoon

Color of lines:
blue = quit fair
red = not easy

red triangles = hot spot = hot action

Have fun!

RoxorMcownage · May 04, 2005, 02:52 AM // 02:52

Well I was the only one willing to post any information so I assumed it was the best. What are the stats on the underworld armor?

Romac · May 09, 2005, 09:39 PM // 21:39

this thread helps those with endgame armor, but what about pre-ascension lvl 20 armor?

i am trying to complete the ascension quests, and would like to know what's available pre-ascension. where's the best place to buy monk armor pre-ascension?

Valerius · May 09, 2005, 09:46 PM // 21:46

yeah.. i would like to know this too... i just got a Superior Rune to Expertise and don't wanna use it till' i know i am putting it into the "Best" possible armor

RoxorMcownage · May 12, 2005, 10:01 AM // 10:01

Well I guess the best pre-ascension armor would be Amnoon Oasis....I think thats level 15 or 17...not sure. I'd wait til Drok's Forge.... You can also get there through a hellish run from the outpost after Frozen Gate or whatever(theres a south exit, theres level 20+ monsters, cant miss it). The run is about 3 hours if you fight everything(and somehow manage to make it with level 10 henchmen). Buuuuuuuut on the other hand you dont have to do elona's and what not.

Dunno, id do ascension and get to droks before placing runes.

Should I throw away my 60k necro armor? Its 60 defense +15 vs ranged...

RoxorMcownage · May 12, 2005, 04:00 PM // 16:00

Its not a better crafter, the stuff just looks different. Dont be misled. And Im not sure if its in the underworld, there is one in granite something way north of drok's, though.

If you want stuff for use-ability, just get the drok's armor. All the stuff after that point is the same stats but looks diff.

Large Penis · May 13, 2005, 06:33 PM // 18:33

Granite Citadel only has the Pyromancer and the Hydromancer oufit redesigned there, but I wonder if the Underworld has the Aeromancer and Geomancer and possibly the 6th Look besides the Elementalist look. Can someone confirm?

I remember in the Beta that you used Silk to craft a Elementalist's oufit, but atm I have not seen any outfit requiring Silk to craft.
