Can anyone show me a particular difference between any of hte 1.5k and 15k gloves? On a certain set or as a whole is what I'm looking for. I feel like wasting 15k for something that looks exactly the same, is well, a waste.

Okay, i may be wrong since i'll never ever try to get that 15k armor and so i'm not exactly an expert in this field, but i believe that a lot of sets still need retexturing, which means that Anet will release different looking versions in updates.

You shouldn't spend much on the Mesmer gloves, they all look nearly the same, except for the Fissure of Woe gloves, so no, if you're not rich, don't buy them.

The gloves for the female AND male mesmer 15K sets are pretty much the same as the 1.5K versions. The 15K female enchanters' gloves does have a black lace patch on the back, but it's hardly noticeable. Both my mesmers have multiple 15K sets, and I just bought them the 1.5K enchanters gloves to use with all of the sets (dyed in black, to make color mix & match easier).

My female mesmer's 15K sets:

Except for the top left, I use the same 1.5K enchanters' gloves and leggings for all of them (that one uses the 1.5K Courtly leggings). Rather economical, as you don't have to burn 60K to get a complete Citadel or Grotto armor set.

well i thought the same as you, the enchanters 1.5k and the enchanters hose 1.5k look the same as the enchanters 15k and the enchanters 15k so i saved the money and bought the others.

Ahh ok thanks.

I was contemplating on whether I should spring for something nicer, or just go my usual frugal way. Thanks.

Whoever said it earlier was right, there are still many 15k pieces that need new textures, like the female ele earth gloves and boots. They are EXACTLY THE SAME. Along with many others...

i dont see any different in the fissure gloves either...

one gives you more fingernail space maybe...

We understand that you cannot see any difference, and you SHOULDN'T. It has been said 2 times before me, a few armor peices need re-texturing. They wouldn't need it if there WAS a difference.
