Default PVP players get new armor!
Let us pvp'ers unlock armor... not 15k or FoW... leave that to the PvE'ers.
Give us armor that has nothing to do with PvE and they can't get that armor.
It's only available through faction unlock.

They haven't even finished all the armor graphics they're supposed to have now, and you want more?

If the PvE'ers are gonna be greedy then that's the way it has to be.
This wasn't my original option.

its not really a viable option to have a whole new set of armor for every character class. designing, modeling, skinning and then properly implementing it will take a while. But perhaps the expansion will carry something new. *shrug*

im iffy on this subject because this game is PvP-centric already...having PvP only armor will alienate PvE only players.

I would love some new armor though...

Are you seriously kidding?
So PvE'ers can get your armor but us PvP'ers can't?
Don't make me quote you from my other thread you hypocrite.

Why not? It's not like I'm asking for new maps for 4 vs 4 (random arena and team arena) or 8 vs 8 (Hall of Heroes and GvG).

You're gonna need a better reason than 'just because' on this
one. Making new armors/skins/etc takes time, money, and effort
on the part of ANet. Time that could be spent on working
on Chapter 2. So make a choice, new armor, or new everything.

There it goes again. PvE'er players thinking for themselves.
If you ask me I could careless about Chapter 2.
PvE'ers want all the attention... Know what the name of the game is? Guild Wars. Isn't this game meant for PvP?
Seriously, why can't you see from the side of a PvP'er instead of thinking for yourself.
This isn't about the armor. PvP'ers need something too.

The frog already said new armor is coming soon (not in the expansion), but then again, he also said there would be new pets in GF/SF... /shrug.

That's the beauty of GW. It has Both sides regardless of the game's title. If you want PVP only.. there's quake and UT. If you want RP only.. there's a slew of RPG's out there. But if you want a balance b/t the two then there's GW.

Practically every game out there has both sides. In UT, you can play against bots. Same thing goes for quake. Just because a game a few aspects of PvE doesn't mean it was meant for PvE. I'm not refering to Guild Wars. If it wasn't meant for some PvE then we wouldn't have the PvE maps, but the idea behind Guild Wars is PvP, hence the name.

Scuze me asscake, but I don't remember the name of this game being
'ZOMG MAKE PVPERS HAPPY AT ALL COST!!!ONEONESHIFTELEVEN!!'
either. And maybe you should stop posting for a minute to see that
you're thinking of yourself more than anyone else who's posted here.
Every comment and suggestion in it has a nice little post by you after
it berating the person and claiming they're just a selfish PvE'er, and
they need to think of others. Maybe before making allegations about
people you know NOTHING about you might think first.

I PvP on a regular basis and I still think this is retarded.

You Hypocrite ... lmao....

I play guild wars becaus ei enjoy PVE, and i like to PVP... i like both GW gives me good quality experiance in both these areas.

However, i think that giving pve or pvp too much "type specific" stuff would create an elitist void.

You would have a situation where pve'ers who want to try pvp would find it difficult to learn all the new weapons / armour / runes or whatever else u add.... and if u gave pve too much then you get the same in reverse.

Basically i say leave things as they are in terms of balance... when new stuff is added give it to everyone.

This is just my opinion

No, I'm taking a stand for the PvP community. PvE'ers have had enough time in the spot light. Did PvP'ers get a new map? Nope. Did we complain about it? Nope. The PvE'ers could careless about us. "We need this, we need that." You know what, take a step back from yourselves and see what you are saying. Then you say PvP'ers can't get anything. Sounds pretty selfness to me. I don't care if you PvP or not and I don't care if I don't know you, heck I don't care about you at all if you don't care, cuz you obviously have no respect for me.

I can't see any harm in allowing any 15k armour you've purchased in PvE -- replace the default equivilents in PvP.

Problem is -- it'd be just a cosmetic change -- it wouldn't exactly add any substance to the game. ( but then, neither does Cape or Helm Toggle... )

We're more concerned with numbers in PvP -- not looks.

I'd take new maps or skill balances over new armour anyday.


If we're talking different armour with new statistics then that's another thing entirely.

So you think that if Anet shifted all its efforts towards PvP instead of PvE no one would complain?
No, all the PvE'ers would complain, whine, cry, etc.

You're complaining, whining and crying because you can't get PvP specific armor?

Wow. complain, whine and cry somewhere else please.

don't put words in my mouth that i don't even mention

and you assume that Anet isnt working on PvP?

do you know how much frickin time they spend testing all the new builds and fads to see if they are fair, or need to be downgraded?

they spend more time on pvp than you think, and your insulting them by saying they don't
