Is this the ultimate armor? - Guild Wars Forums

Ppl 1 question, o just reached "The granite citadel" and there is an armor dude there that sells 15k armor that seems very alike the so called last armor (same texture at least it seems), but this one doesnt require the obsidian shards, what is the difference about this one and the "last" one? if there is such a thing.

Sam Katha · Jun 21, 2005, 05:07 PM // 17:07

There is no difference. The stats are the same. The armour is intended to look different though not all sets are finished. It's a cosmetic luxury item and gives no bonus over the cheaper armour.

So u mean the armor from granite citadel is the same then the armor from underworld because the armor from underworld isnt finished yet or its because its stats are not implemented? Then why pay more obsidian shards to get it?

The price of LOOKING COOL...

Jaroh Magus · Jun 21, 2005, 06:36 PM // 18:36

I just hope that they plan on implementing a bunch more of these, so that there are many distinct looks for everyone. Having them require more is all cool, and keeping the same stats is excellent, so that things don't get unablanced...I can't wait to get a set for me...

Thats not what i meant, i believe the armor in the citadel is the same aspect as the one in underworld, thats why im askint why to buy the underworld instead of the one in citadel if they are the same texture, look, stats .. ?

The intent seems to be that eventually, Droknar's armor will look different from Citadel armor, which will look different from Underworld armor. However, at release, they all looked the same and they have only begun to change the looks of the more expensive stuff.

JedyKnight · Jun 21, 2005, 07:10 PM // 19:10

So not implemented yet

The 100k armor in Fissure of Woe looks drastically different from the armors in Granite Citadel and Marman's Grotto. There's a thread in the screenshot exposition forum showcasing them.

Reiden Argrock · Jun 21, 2005, 07:34 PM // 19:34

Um, it's not 100k, only if your to lazy to acquire the crafting materials on your own, if you want to buy all the materials then it is more like 500k armor, other wise 60k without helm, and 75k with helm

^ YIKES! im never getting that

Jedy: the 15K and 300K armor will never be better than the Droknar's armor, it will just look different. It's never going to be updated in stats, just looks.

Kratos The Impaler · Jun 23, 2005, 09:38 AM // 09:38

i have the Fissure Male Warrior armor, and yes it is very expensive. it would take you forever to find all the materials because Fissure and UW have been nerfed. best bet is to buy most of them. here is my thread with pics.....

You might buy it someday. No reason not to. You'll one day have everything else in the game, and piles of cashola just sitting around.
