quick armor questions... - Guild Wars Forums

Just a quick couple questions...Im level 13 almost 14 E/ME and I am currently upgraded to the 150g a piece armors from Yaks and Ascalon.

Anyway... Ive had my armor a while and just been saving money up. I am getting very close to Lion's Arch and was wandering is the next level or armor available there? And...if anyone knows...what are the materials needed for the next Elementalist armors?

Another question.... I have the headpiece I got made from Ascalon that adds like + 30 health and +1 Fire Magic. I have a +1 Fire Magic rune. If I add it to the headpiece will it change to +2 Fire Magic?

One last question.... Is there a limit to the amount of + attributes you can have on armors? I mean...could I for instance put +1 Fire Magic on every piece of armor and raise it 5 attribute levels?? (i dont think you can but Im not sure what you can do)

Sorry, this is the only answer I'm 100% certain about... You can only gain the benfit of a rune type once, i.e. one +1 Fire rune, one +1 Energy storage rune, one minor vigor rune... and if you add a +2 rune to another piece of armour, you only get the benefit of the +2, not +2 and +1 for +3.

here is a list of armor for elementalists, arranged by level and location. you will find the crafting requirements there. this information was taken from the beta, so you may find it is slightly outdated.

runes stack with the headpiece bonus. you can place runes in your headpiece.

however, the same runes do not stack. only the one with the biggest bonus counts. if you place 2 minor and 1 major rune of fire into your armor, you will only get the +2 from the major rune. however, different runes stack, so if you put minor runes for fire, water, air, and earth, you would get +1 to each.

Hmm it appears the stuff in Lions Arch is the same stuff you got in Ascalon and Yak's. Seems a bit disappointing if that is right.

Ok some weapon/armor improvement questions from me.

First off, can you put runes on any form of equipment? (all kinds of weapons, all pieces of armor)

Second, how many runes can you add on each weapon/piece of armor?

Third, is there a failure chance when putting a rune/weapon modifier on an equipment?
(never heard of anything like that but I'd rather be sure =P )

And the fourth and last question, could someone give me a quick summary of weapon modifiers and rune prices?
Like how much the average worth of a minor/major/superior rune is and how much most weapon modifiers cost. (generalizations are ok, no need to list seperate prices for all of em)

Thx in advance
