Yeah male ele is just plain ugly as usual. The one with armor+10 seems the most useful yet the ugliest in the line though. dang it...guess i'll just keep my 15k geo gear =(

I think 100 AL might find its uses. If you only use str, weapon, and maybe a non linked skill you could easily have 13 str.

You're joking - does it still look crap in factions?

Everyone has better armour than male elementalists - even the female elementalists. It's far more detailed. The male sets are really just the primary armour slightly changed slightly for each class (visually I mean).

At least, as you say, the 15k geo looks good, (in my opinion, so does 15k Aero,) so hopefully we can expect something special from the vanity armours for male eles. And hopefully something more PRACTICAL in the way of leggings for us female eles...

The basic white elementalist armour from Droknar's looks really good in silver

Moa Bird Cultist · Mar 14, 2006, 04:41 PM // 16:41

Agreed, but in terms of practicality and functionality, FoW leggings are better - therefore, I am hoping for FoW Battlemage

(And just use the FoW leggings and 1.5/15k Battlemage on the rest, depending on looks. Plus it'd cost a bomb for a full set...)

Well, I can hope, can't I?

In the mean time I'll stick to my ice blue 15k Geo, (it matches my hair, you know?)

mutig drachen · Mar 18, 2006, 06:01 AM // 06:01

if berserker is in 15k in there and im liking the health plus energy on some of them

ranger armour plus 10 while using prep will be useful

1 question tho why is the only 2 armours for necro?

blakecraw · Mar 18, 2006, 07:28 AM // 07:28

maybe i'm bein stupid maybe not?

the fact that sentinel armor has a penalty while under 13 strength instead of requiring 13 strength to wear it period makes it seem like u'd be able to raise ur strength attribute, or other atts., via skills for some amount of time. like the way awaken the blood or glyph of elemental power works now.

i still wouldn't be too wild about wearing armor that requires upkeep, and a skill slot, IF i my thought is even anywhere near the truth, but it'd be better than havin to put ur strength at 13.

Possible, but not very likely. I wouldn't extrapolate that just from the fact that you need to have 13 strength to get the full effect from Sentinel armor, but can wear it regardless.

i'm a gonna get the legionnaire's armor

i kill charr · Mar 18, 2006, 05:43 PM // 17:43

i think that armor is for the preview event and not for the guild wars core set.

NinjaKai · Mar 18, 2006, 05:47 PM // 17:47

Here's a question. Will the armor be available during the factions weekend for PvP?

Here's my guess. The armor in PvP will be the armor that you can use for PvP with your factions key or when you buy the installation thing you know what I mean. As for it's availability I do believe it will only be obtainable from cantha armor crafters. As for the PvP ones ATM I assume the content is temporary until the end of the weekend event.

I Am Going To Get Myself The Sentinel Armour :d

Rancour · Mar 18, 2006, 07:36 PM // 19:36

I don't know if it's been mentioned (probably has) but have you seen that there's a Sentinel helm too? Now THAT's cool.

I think I'm gonna end up with Sentinel helm, Berserker/Legionair boots and leggings, Ringmail gauntlets and Gladiator's cuirass. I know it's alot of different armors, but I think it'll look good together, if the Berserker/Legionair armor is dyable.

That's my plan at the moment. I'll have to see the other armors and the 15k versions before changing, though.

FalconDance · Mar 19, 2006, 06:50 PM // 18:50

So this is the new armor for PvP......do we in PvE also have access to such new goodies at high levels?

neoteo · Mar 19, 2006, 07:55 PM // 19:55

male ele armors dont impress me much at first sight .. lets see what dyes can do to them ... anyway , ANET if you read this , make some high tech armor for male eles , less girly if you know what i mean. the actual collectors , 15k air and fissure are the only ones i really like atm. ok eles are mages but dont need to look like they are weak. they do a lot of dmg should look more powerfull imo.

one other thing i just found, there's a new warrior skill called "signet of strength"

this makes it seem more likely to me that u can alter ur strength attribute via skills to get the full effect of sentinel armor w/o dumping all the points in
