I would like to suggest that all armor collectors carry multiple 'flavors' of their armor JUST LIKE THE FOW CRAFTER. All the flavors would look the same. Anet doesn't need to add a bunch of new armors....Just add BONUSES to the collectors armors!

This would make collectors armor like poor-mans FoW armor. Opponents would not be sure what flavor of collectors armor you're wearing, but you wouldn't automatically be disadvantaged for wearing Collector armor.

Also, there are a number of (Necromancer, maybe more) armors at Droknars Forge that have no bonuses either:

Necromancer Armor
Pagan Armor

Give these bonuses too. I don't care what bonuses. Make them the same as Cultists/Bonelace. Fine.

Every armor in the entire game needs a bonus on it, so it is a viable armor for combat use. Why did Anet spend time making these and then make them useless??

No. They are cheaper for a reason.

It would be overpowered if you could get collector's that is as good as droknar's in the desert. The only reason why people switch form the collector's is the energy bonus of gladiator's.

That's why there is droknar's forge, and other "city/town" crafter armors.

They could put a final set of collectors in the southern shiverpeaks then, with the bonuses.

Maybe just the 'Final' Collectors set has bonuses.

Maybe give collectors' armor a bonus, but not QUITE as good as Drok's (like if Drok's gives an additional +10 armor vs. physical dmg, the collector's gives an additional +7 armor vs. physical)? Ehh? Ehhhhhh? *elbow elbow nudge nudge wink wink uncomfortable look walk-away, walk-away*

im with the yoink. i think that since droks armor costs more to craft(if you dont buy all the collectors items they want from others), the bonuses should be slightly lower. the ones in droks with no bonuses have none because they require less material and are therefore cheaper. but considering the time it takes to get collectors armor if done properly, i think there should be some type of bonus...

/Signed. maybe pay some gold to get the bonuses, just give the items for normal.
