Dervish and Paragon Canthan Armours.

This is speculation not fact.

I am just gonna say no, it wont happen so that i can be proven wrong

That way i wont be dissappointed if there werent any armour of Dervish and Paragon but will be extremely delighted if they did.

Win Win for me

I always win.

With only 2 GW games released, you cant tell what they are going to do next. I think that faction specific armour may still be available for all classes provided they have factions.

I doubt they would bring armor styles from another continent to Elonia (or what ever its called)

Especially not kurzick, luxxon and canthan armor purely because they are kurzik, luxon and canthan.

It would completely remove the point of going to cantha to get faction armor styles.

Armors are meant to be stylistic of the continent your on.

That would have been like asking them to add Tyrian style armor to factions!

All the core professions and Ass and Ritualist get new armor in Nightfall, so its not just "the Sin and the Rit", and eventually they will add Obsideon armor for the nightfall professions.

Then when they release the 4th installment, you'l get lots more new armor to play with which will include the two professions from nightfall.

And their isnt much point them adding for example, Assasin Armor to Tyria because you cant create Assassins in prophercies.

It forces people to buy different installments to get different professions and armors.

BTW, what did you mean by Sin?

[edit]

I might have actually miss understood what you meant.

I thought you were asking for Luxon, etc, armor in Elonia.

If your asking for Dervish, etc, armor in Factions then I still wouldnt see it happen.

As I said, you cant create new professions in older games, so its pointless.

Ummmm... you might wanna look at this.

That's krytan armor, which is the prophecies collectors armor.

And http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Voldo_The_Exotic

That's tyrian armor, which is the armor with no extra bonuses (i.e +energy etc. that you buy in prophecies.

And the tyrian starter armour: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Suki.

They're all 1.5k armor crafters in FACTIONS that craft armor for the core classes that comes from Prophecies, and they've been there since Factions was released.

I know I bought my necro canthan-ascalon armor and returned to Tyria.

But its still only by name (Krytan/tyrian/ascalon).

The armor all through-out cantha is still unique to that continent and has canthan flavour to it.

So you cant say "Ascalon armor" bought in Cantha, is Tyrian. Because it was designed and made in cantha using influences from Tyria. Im thinking way too much into this.

If I had wanted a more accurate argument, I should have said they wouldnt add Factions armor to Tyria.

But I still wouldnt say they added tyrian armor to factions, because its only really by name.

Its not identical to the armor in tyria, because as mentioned - it has a canthan style to it.

If they wanted to add Faction named armor to Elonia (god i hope im calling that the right name), then they could.

But I doubt it would be a similar style as luxon or kurzack. It would be an Elonian take on Canthan armor.

Obsidian Armor is core armor to prophecie, just like Kurzick/Luxon are core to factions, you choose a side if you have the game. I speculate they will have luxon and kurzick for that fact. They may not have regular canthan armor......

I'd try to get it even if they trebled the ectos for that!

Anet we beg you, lets see Grim Reaper Dervish Obsidian

NO. Obsidian Armor is NOT core to prophecies. You can go to UW and FoW from Cantha.


Rits and sins did not get any armor in Tyria so Dervish and Paragon will not get armor in Cantha. Doesn't make sense.

Wrong again, the only speculation going on is people for some reason thinking dervish and paragon will get armor in Factions, even though Assassin and Ritualsit didnt get armor in Tyria.

You can go on beliving all the stupid crap you want, just that you will get disapointed in the end. People set their hopes too high with stupid speculation only to get totaly disapointed in the end when their totaly unrealisitic dreams dont come true.


The A and Rit came first thats why they exist in the world of Nightfall. D and P dont exist in Factions, so why would they put armor for them in the game

No Tyrian armor for Rits or Sins.

The armor crafters in Kaineng crafted Tyrian armore for CORE professions. There is NO Tyrian armor for the Sin or Rit. What they have is Imperial and Exotic.

To make up for the lack of Tyrian ascended armor, they also got two other selections, no other profession could get, on the divine path.

This most likely is what will happen in Nightfall. Paragons and Dervishes will get an extra armor set or two, but no Canthan or Tyrian. Which is the way it should be.
In Tyria, they specialize in crafting armors according to the "homegrown" professions - which are the six core.
In Cantha, they specialize in crafting armors according to the "homegrown" professions - which are Assassin and Ritualist
In Elona, they specialize in crafting armors according to the "homegrown" professions - which are Paragon and Dervish.

Of course, they will get FoW.

You know, I think that one's a pretty safe bet.

I'm assuming the most they will do is have "exotic" armor for the D & P. But how will they do that? will they have an exotic for Tyria & Cantha? Or will they consider Tyria part of Elona (since it's the same continent)
hmmm.

I just hope that when all is said and done, they D & P will have the same # of armour styles as other classes. It would be lame if they just had, say, 5.

My understanding was that Tyria was the name of the continent, and Elona was the name of another continent.

I've brought this up in a few threads - about being able to create an Elonian A or R; about A and R getting new skills in Nightfall, etc. What I think is the issue here is symmetry.

ANet's stance that the different GW games are independant "chapters" rather than "expansions".
I think it's a fine idea for the two Factions-specific jobs to get new stuff in Nightfall - but I think this should be balanced by the Nightfall-only jobs getting stuff in Factions too. Otherwise we have this situation where Nightfall provides benefit to Factions characters over and above just giving access to a new continent, but Factions doesn't give similar benefits to Nightfall characters. This makes Nightfall seem like an expansion to Factions, rather than the two being independant but mutually beneficial chapters.

Don't even ask how Prophecies fits in here.

Well, actually, do. Prophecies doesn't have its own two special jobs - but to compensate, all six "Core" jobs get benefits from all three chapters. I would have thought that playing a "special" job from Factions or Nightfall would balance out the fact that other chapters don't give that job any benefit.

But it doesn't seem to be turning out like that. Nightfall is already (apparently) adding new skills for A and R characters; now the question of adding armor has come up.
Again, I don't see this is a bad thing - but without being balanced by additions in Factions for the D and P jobs it goes against ANets stance of calling these Chapters rather than Expansions.

this thread is stupid.

unless this is something that will keep you from buying the game... then its kind of dumb to speculate on at this time.

D and P will not be able to craft armor in cantha. consider yourself lucky that you can get A and Rt skills/armor in elona. nuff' said.

tyria is the forest, cantha and elona are just some trees.

i think that Tyria is not only the name of the primary continent but the entire planet GW takes place on.

It seems like Anet always uses the name 'Tyria' to distinguish the area from Prophecies from the other campaigns.

I could see the Canthan style becoming a "core" armor like the Ascalon, Tyrian, and Krytan, and the Paragon/Dervish getting armor with a new name from that crafter...

Why? The Ascalon, Tyrian, and Krytan are just the universal stat version of the artwork for the starter, standard, and collector armor for the core classes. The dervish and paragon already have universal stat armor art from the beginning, so what would be the point? Not to mention that they don't have a starter, standard, and collector armor as such.
