With each new chapter that comes out old armor always becomes non-fashionable. It is a season thing. Also, from what I've been reading here at guru, some new designs are hit or miss. Getting FoW armor is really expensive and the design is not always the best looking and... it gets out-dated. FoW armor should make other people jealous and in awe, a symbol of status/coolness (or whatever). Here is my suggestion to make FoW armors more special and really worth getting them:

FoW armor should have a special emote like HoH's emotes.

To distinguish it from the HoH emotes, instead of gold color... just use a different color. A-net could even make the emotes the profession's colors. W=orange; Ele=red; N=green, etc. This way people could tell a FoW armor emote apart from HoH emotes. Oh, and please make the emote last for like 30 seconds so your FoW looks cool longer. And you could use the mote in towns and outside towns.

It would be so awsome to have a special emote if your character is wearing a full set of FoW armor. These armors are supposed to be the armor of the gods right? So, they should glow or something!

Right now, most people stop at 15k armor because they cannot justify the cost of FoW armor. My suggestion would make them take that extra step into FoW.

Another idea: You could make all armor skins available as FoW. This way people can pick their armor skin and get the special emote suggested above. So, players would actually be purchasing the FoW emote and getting the armor skin they think looks best.

I've seen this "suggestion" somewhere, and it got shot down as quick as this one will be. Why is there a need for an emote that says "Look at me, look at me, I'm rich!(or was)" since the armor itself is an emote, and it is visible to all around you. And that is enough, seasoned players know how much time and gold goes into it. Plus idiots would abuse the emote; spamming it thinking that will get them in a group or something: "lolz u noob i hav FWo amror i pwn!!1!11" And for the record, this reasoning isn't coming from a cynical anti-FoW armor person; I have two sets and I do enjoy them a lot. But seriously, having an emote for this would get just plain silly.

^ True. The armor itself show all. No emote for this one. If yes, I smell FoW Emote Spam for nothing. Emotes stay at their side: PvP.

We don't need pve emotes. kthx

and.. i am laughing

This suggestion is retarded. Everyone can already see your armor. Everyone with half a clue, including the w/mo paladin using the 5-9(or whatever) damage fake crystalline sword cause it's ultra 1337.

There is no point, what about people with only one piece of FoW armor because they don't like the look of the entire set?

Oh and this would only encourage noobs to EBAY to get their FoW armor(too many already do).

B Ephekt · May 05, 2006, 09:46 PM // 21:46

Laugh out loud.

No, just... no.

just for the heck of it.

the more emotes we have the less we have to see the same old ones over and over.

Francis Demeules · May 05, 2006, 10:30 PM // 22:30

Emote = PvP
FoW = PvE

Emote + FoW = PvE Char with Fow armor, do HoH in PvP

Its not problematic in a mathematical result

I dont care about the same Emote all the time, its not my problem who see players spaming over and over at HA. If you want emotes, go and earn it in PvP.

tuperwho · May 05, 2006, 10:35 PM // 22:35

I just think of it as a constant visual emote. Anyone who sees it should know what it means, and it's constantly on. No more is needed

fiery · May 06, 2006, 12:12 AM // 00:12

LOL, no. Don't let ebayers take a whiff of this, or we will have more of them. As for the ones who farmed legit for Fow armor,power to them, but still no emote.

agreed with everything

Roflmao! When will you guys wake up and understand that you're not gonna get any "I'm an awesome farmer and/or eBayer!" emote? If you are wealthy enough to afford FoW armor or one (or mutiple suits) of the 15k armors, that is your emote. One that's visible 100% of the time. I can't spam my PvP emote so that it's visible 100% of them time. Quit complaining. If you wanna flash rank, do what everyone else who has a /rank did: earn it.

Sadly, that's what HoH has degenerated to these days. I got mine playing prot, but oh well....

the FoW armor itself is the "emote"
and there are plenty of idiots with FoW, just like there are plenty of idiots with rank.
