Default Armor - Make An Educated Decision

As many of you, I have not bothered to purchase my 1.5k/15k armor yet. At the time of writing this, I'm level 20 and pretty deep into Cantha with my cheap-o armor from that one port place. 55 def. Whatever.

Anyway, a lot of us would like to see all the possible armors before making a purchase. This thread has been done for 15k armors, but I intend to do it for 1.5k as well, because not all of us are rich. So... Hopefully by the end this will be the complete Assassin 1.5k and up list.

Female Kurzick 1.5k:
Needed

Male Kurzick 1.5k:

(NOTICE: The above armor's link seems to be broken. It worked fine for me this morning, but is now not working. Thus, for all intensive purposes, this armor goes under the NEEDED category unless the link miraculously fixes itself.

Female Luxon 1.5k:

~Basic 15k~

Catha- Divine Path
Exotic- Divine Path
Imperial - Divine Path

(Mystic's Note: Endgame armor. After you pwn the final mission, you'll be taken to a special area called Divine Path. The forgers for this armor are here.)

~Kurczick~
1.5k- House zu Heltzer
15k- Vasburg Armory
~Luxon~
1.5k- Cavalon
15k- Leviathan Pits
~Fissure Of Woe~
Found in... The Fissure Of WoE, in the Prophecies campaign.



Now, I'm sure many of you have 1.5k armors already, so why not take a picture of it and post it up here? It would be highly appreciated. Yes, 1.5ks are highly common even already but many people have trouble telling which are which or even being sure if they're the 1.5k.

Also, I haven't put too much research into this, so if the 1.5k armors look exactly like all the earlier ones (I've heard that they do ~.~) then tell me and I'll remove the 1.5k sections except for Exotic.

Also, I wrote this about 20 minutes after waking up, so if anything is missing from the needed list remind me =x

LATEST UPDATE - Female Kurzick 15k, Catha female 15k, Male FOW, 15k Imperial male, 15k luxon male, full 15k "Basic" locations

Edit: Please do NOT message the people I give credit to asking for the materials for the armor. They probably don't even remember.

Also, a special thank-you to deus_invictus, to whom many of the 15k pictures (and FoW) for female belong.

I'll buy several sets for my assassin (one 15AL^attacking set, and one +7 nrg set) so I'll show those if you need them.

I've been staving from buying armor for exactly that reason. When it's finished I know it'll help people out a lot. Thanks. Much appreciated.

And the 15k's own FoW horribly.

Especially Kurzick male. I may go Luxon, but I'll still have that armor.

Hey, I have a question:

The Nightstalker set gives +15AL while attacking, so I was wondering if one piece of that set will give me the bonus, or do I need to get the complete set?

I'd like to get an armour piece for each set (one for the health bonus, one for the energy, etc.)

A user PM'd me the 15k Exotic, my newest addition. Also by request I have added locations for armors, however I'm not extremely far into the story so if someone could kindly inform me where to find 15k basic armors, 15k exotic, 15k luxon, and 15k kurczick it would be appreciated. I assume Kurczick is in the town right after the mission I'm at right now =x

I'm not extremely sure about that, but let's go by logic. If an armor says +3 Energy, then if you wear that one piece you will get that +3 energy. Going along those lines it's a reasonable guess that each piece will give you the bonus.

Here's the thing though, assassins have the ability to wear full shrouded armor (though I will probably opt to not use gloves and boots), and ONE armor piece of energy bonus is not that big of a deal. In fact, it's more or less ruining the idea. I'd advise against buying one piece of each...

Also needs to be said: Thank you... Or rather... You're welcome, to all the people who have been thanking me in this thread (Though a couple got deleted, I think =x). I really didn't expect to get that much praise >.<

I know how hard it is to find reliable labled pictures of armor for Guild Wars, espically the brand new Factions, and usually when I was able to find it... It was in a thread like this one. So, for me and all the other people like me, I chose to make it.

It's something that needs testing, to see if it's like glads/knights or if it's localized. I'm guessing localized, but without testing who knows for sure.

Come on guys, I know a lot of you have 1.5k armor, please just take a moment to screen and upload it. www.imageshack.us if you don't have an upload location, and you'd be doing anyone who reads this thread a large favor.

Tested. The +15 while attacking is local. In fact, every single new armor for every profession offers a local effect.

Assassin Imperial 1.5k armour is found in Bukdek; can't remember where exactly, but it's along the way when doing the quest for the Xunlai Agent. Materials needed are tanned hide squares and steel. The female skin is the leotard one.

Kurzick 1.5k can be bought in House zu Heltzer, the Kurzick capital. The Kurzick 15k can be bought in Vasburg Armory, an outpost you reach after the Eternal Grove mission.

Does the 1.5k look different to the cheaper armours of the same name then?

For most classes, it does. I assumed that for assassins it does as well, but I'm still not sure.

Hmm but it didn't in Prophecies? Ascalon armour from Ascalon and from Droknar's forge look the same, or so I thought.
