Looking around both Wikis, I can't seem to figure what everyone is talking about.
How are you guys seeing 5 new armors for Warrior and 4 for everyone else?

*shrug*

We have no idea. But it's true: Warriors get one more set than everyone else.

Metal Herc · Sep 03, 2007, 09:20 AM // 09:20

Well at the Dwarven armorer I did see the option to make Sturdy Chest armor and a few other options. maybe thats it?

Eh, just to point out a slight problem, how can you know its true when 'we have no idea'?

Either there is and you know what they are or there isnt 5.

Arkantos · Sep 03, 2007, 10:21 AM // 10:21

Warrior has a norn set, ebon vanguard set, asura set, and two deldrimor sets. That's 5.

Vermilion Okeanos · Sep 03, 2007, 10:21 AM // 10:21

Apparently there are 5 sets... 2 from dwarven crafter, and 1 all else.

While the other four can be found in the wiki.

Why only the warriors? >_>

Perhaps because Warriors are the single most played class?

Also, their Dwarven armour is a pretty basic reskin, much worse than any of the other classes get. The male one especially looks almost exactly the same as the Norn set. They may have added the Silver Eagle set in afterwards to make up for that.

lyra_song · Sep 03, 2007, 12:20 PM // 12:20

maybe the 5th set ie: eagle version, is in works for all classes?

I don't think warriors are the most played class. They're pointless now that dervs are around. I've seen more eles than wars recently.

Also, take a look at ele and necro armour, with the exception of female ele norn, all of theirs are awful and all are obvious reskins. Very disappointing.

Neither of those are words...

Dervs have a better AoE, stronger weapons, better energy management, more versitile skill pool, lower armour but usually their enchants make up for that.

Morgenstern · Sep 04, 2007, 05:10 AM // 05:10

I dont think they are pointless, and I love my Warrior...
of my 700played hours, 600 or so have been on him.

My opinion is that it is because Warrior armours have the potential to look so cool, and as the stats dont really matter, people focus on the skin more.... maybe lol.
But IMO ANet does seem to put way more effort into Warrior armour, and always has lol. I aint complaining though

Eles are better for AoE, Scythe has a crap minimum range, adrenaline means you don't need energy, all 3 campaigns contribute to the Warrior skill pool, and armor is king in PvE. You were saying?

Not to mention Dervish seems to attract everyone who was an Assassin in Factions, so they're a bunch of useless tards who rush in without backup and think, "lawl Mystic Regen will keep me alive kthxbai".

Yet so vulnerable against enchantment stripping. And so few condition skills for each type (bleeding, weakness, etc...). If you're going to mention the other person's spelling then at least get your own correct. I think the words you were looking for were: Dervish, versatile, and armor. On a final note, skilled warriors never run into energy management issues. The less skilled ones usually run adrenaline builds (not trying to say all adrenaline builds are for the less skilled). Maybe you're just one of those W/E's that love trying to use Meteor Shower. In that case, suck less.

By the way, I love my Dervish.

Firstly, I abbreviated dervish, versatile... well you have a point there but armour is right because I'm British, hence 'Saviour' in my name. That's just how things are done here. One spelling mistake isn't the same as posting a two word response wherein both words don't exist, not even as abbreviations. I think chat speak is against the rules anyway.

You're right about the enchant stripping, in some areas, taking a warrior over a dervish does pay off but overall, the dervish is usually the better to take. The skill pool may not be as extensive but it's better. The class is also a lot easier to play, which is important when you're picking up some random person you've never spoken to before (not that many play with other people any longer...). Sure, as you say, skilled warriors don't run in to energy problems but some do and many still run the nastier adrenaline builds - see the post above yours which hints at it.

No, I'm not a W/E using meteor shower. I played a warrior a while back but I didn't enjoy it. I prefer the caster classes and whilst I like playing a dervish more than a warrior, I'm still a lot more partial to my necromancer and elementalist, hence my comment on their armour.

To get back on topic; it's unfair and annoying for the warrior to get an extra armour. There's no reason for the other classes to miss out and I'm not sure why anet did this...

Not to be pedantic, but "armour" is the correct spelling in UK English.
You know, English from England.

Terra Xin · Sep 04, 2007, 06:32 AM // 06:32

Fortunately this thread isn't about a spelling contest...

So they have 5 different types of armour? That sucks...
