Unlocking 15k armor for PVP characters
Come on.
Give us PVP lovers a chance to get 15k armor.
This normal armor is just ugly!
The idea is we break up each class.
Warrior, Ranger, Elementalist, Necromancer, Mesmer, and Monk.
Then we break up each piece of armor.
Head, Chest, Arms, Legs, and Feet.
Then we break it up for each type of armor.
Too many to name.
So an example would be: Unlocking a 15k chestpiece for Gladiator Armor for so and so faction would only unlock that piece for the whole account.
Personally I think this would be a great idea.
Anyone else think so?
Maybe after that we can also unlock more weapons, but I don't want to push it too far.
PvE should have it's benefit's.
I don't think nice looking armor would hurt.
Anyways, tell me what you think!

ive done my share of PvE.
lol i cant deny i aint lazy though, but still.
even if you had 4 pve characters you would never be able to have of the sets for each class.
its just impossible.
wanting to change to a different type of class whenever you want doesnt mean you should be penalized.
being limited to only 4 static characters is just stupid. thats why they have it so you create a level 20 pvp character anytime you want. so you can change to whatever you want, when you want.
and ps. we arent lazy... we have to farm for faction too

PvP character already get perfect weapons and armor to begin with, 15K takes time and money to make, plus its the only thing that makes PvE character special... no, not now, not ever.

Heck yeah. I'm tired of every character I see wearing the same old armor. More weapons would be great too.

15k is all for aesthetics. The existing 1.5 armor in PvP is the same stats as 15k.
Without things like 15k or FoW armor as an exclusive, theres even LESS motivation to play PVE.
My friend quit Guild Wars because he considered PVE quests/missions, money, and aesthetic value useless because he primarily a PvP player. When the Ranger interrupts got nerfed (he played that build obviously) he quit because there was nothing left for him to do.

The PVP armor is very boring, no doubt about it.
PVP players definitely deserve to be able to unlock Fissure armor.
"Playing" PVE does not get you Fissure armor.
Rather, farming and having to spam in tradechats 100 billion times to sell your items may get you it in a million years from now. I may be exaggerating a bit, but not by much.
The point is that there is no way that "playing" PVE normally will acquire Fissure armor, and grinding in PVE for it is not fun - and the devs said everything in the game is supposed to be fun first and foremost.
Unlocking Fissure armor in PVP = fun! Therefore it should be an option.

PVP is PVP who cares what armor you have on, you paly through the game and get 15k armor and it is sort of a way of showing you have accomplished something not just go around wearing it, if anything its only unlocked if you have owned it on a pve character not through faction

After unlocking mostly every skill and mostly all the item upgrades and yet not even having 1 15k armor set on any of my characters. It's depressing me. While if I could play PvP in the hopes of unlocking something just for looks. That would be awesome!
It lests those who really can't afford it be able to play/use it.

pve = aestetics play a part, hell, you don't wanna have 30 clones of you running next to you
pvp = all about stats, i don't care about looks, i rarely even decently look at a target, so who cares ? (and i only pvp with a pvp-only char created for that build and that build only, i rarely use my pve chars (with 15k and/or FoW armors) for pvp)
anyway, both 15k and FoW armors should remain pve exclusive

Well... would the PVP Crowd want the PVE Players to gain Fame for winning a mission? No? Why do you want the PVE Version of your /fame command for you to have then?

Maybe you get another type of armor with your rank? Like 15k armor = rank 6, FoW armor = rank 12?

Yes, getting all the materials for FoW armor just isn't sane. What's fun about waiting in Lion's Arch 1 spamming WTB: ecto.

That wouldn't be so bad. Although I know some people just really don't want to tomb. I used to be like that. I would only mass pvp in random arenas. So I feel that any PVP player should be able get it by unlocking it through faction.

You know, I wouldn't really disagree with that statement. Allowing a PVE player to gain fame through a mission could actually increase the desire for people to play PVE. I know some people completely hate PVP. They shouldn't be forced to PVP if they really want to achieve something they want. As long as the fame isn't something that isn't easily acquired.
I'm not saying the armor has to be like 3k faction to unlock. To give you a crazy number, why not make unlocking 1 piece of armor take 20k faction. If you don't think 20k faction isn't alot, then you haven't PVP'ed. We're not saying it's something that should come easy for PVP players. It just gives us something to look forward to, and unlock.
