Lookie lookie! We all love petitions! Devs love petitions! Lets have a petition then!
As you probably all or at least most know Tyrian/Canthan armor cannot currently hold insignias. Although I have my own complaints about the system I think it would be a good idea to add an end-game NPC with the ability to strip all modifiers from Tyrian or Canthan armor. After which you could apply insignias to that armor as if it was normal NF armor.
Considering that quite a few people probably have this armor they like and have paid good money (+runes and dye) for but think the mods have become obsolete (knights and sentinel for example) and would like to change them without having to buy a completely new set. I myself would happily pay 1-5k for that kind of service. I don't see it affecting gameplay in any way so I don't think its unreasonable to ask it implemented.
/agree to agree. All feedback will be appreciated. Thank you.

They updated the tyrian armor when factions was released, so there is no reason they wont get around to updating tyrian and canthan armor to fit in with Elonian gear.
Its only been about a month, give them a chance.

I think it will never happen.
Factions came out and introduced the ability to buy any armor look for any stats you want.
This feature was never added to the Tyrian armor. If you want warrior +energy and have only ch1 then you are stuck wiht being naked using the glads armor.
I think they should keep it the way it is.
Each chapter will introduce a new way to craft armor/weapon to keep things exciting.

I agree with the fact that its only a matter of time before its rolled out, remember that like factions when that was released there where things that needed ironing out then too.

Question: Anyone crafted FoW for any profession (other than Para or Derv as I'm guessing you can insignia those types) since Nightfall has been live and been able to put insignias on at all?, as if so then those of us with existing FoW should really have the option available to us should we wish to change.

i dont think it is right to modify older chapters of guildwars to be more like the current chapter. insignias and heroes should stay in elona. otherwise why should i buy new chapters when i know the devs will eventually implement the changes.
BTW i an not happy about implementing material storage for tyria characters. in my opinion, if you want these types of upgrades then you need to buy the new chapters and move your toons through them like the rest of us.
also, tyria and cantha have their own personalities and introducing these new elements will ruin that.

Actually, I like the idea of having an NPC to do it. Put it in Kamadan and you keep the people who don't own ch3 from having access to it, but those that do own it, can upgrade their armor as it suits them. My primary character is a ranger and I wear the druids armor, but I much prefer the 15k drakescale and would love to be able to give it druid stats, I just don't like how the NF druids armor looks, personal preference I know, but my preference in how an armor looks should mean I'm screwed as far as being able to have inscriptions on an armor set, I do own all 3 chapters and have them all linked together, let me upgrade my drakescale.

"Why should I buy the old chapters when I know that the devs have left them woefully inferior to the new chapter?"
With inscriptions, there is a valid argument against pushing that change back to Tyria and Cantha (see the 50+ page thread for a discussion of that).
However, with insignia, there is absolutely no reason that armors shouldn't have the same functionality in every chapter.

I believe that when people bought Nightfall, they bought this option for armor as well. Therefore, if you have, say, 15k Luxon for example, you should be able to change the Insignia of the armor at the end of the game of Nightfall.
However, if you don't have Nightfall, then I believe it wouldn't be fair for them to have the option of this.

That way, you'd still need NF.

I understand the reasoning behind leaving it as a NF only addition. However I do believe it would be a nice gesture for those people who havn't purchased NF yet. So kind of on the fence about that.
Regardless, I feel this should definitly be implemented for those of us who do not want to part with our current armor.

I like my 15k Glad's armor a lot on my girl warrior, but I sure would like to be able to swap the stats up. Energy is good, but I have gravitated towards wanting more armor as of late.

I had just finished buying my 15k armor for my pyro ele, and factions was released and the ele armor was far superiour with stats.
So my poor 15k tyrian armor was outdated.
They said they would modify all 15k armor in an update to make it the same as canthan armor.
It took months of waiting, but they did it in the end.
Be patient my young padwan.

i think they should make new features available to older chapters. not only insignias, but also inscriptions for weapons. prophecies is a nice game and u can get good drops there .. but thats of no use if u cant get those inscriptions off them so u can put em on sumthin else. for example, if i find an chaos axe with 15^50 but high req and i have another axe with low req, id like to be able to take the 15^50 off the high req one and put it on the low req. u can do similar stuff with other weapons ofc too.
i dont know y new features should be available only for the new games. take the storage upgrade as an example: it was only in cantha at first, but since halloween its also in tyria available. i think they should add such new features in the same way to the older chapters.
im totally signing this petition ... for inscriptions and insignias for older chapters

If I ever go back to Cantha and Tyria for armor, I don't want to have to buy insignias for them too, especially at the price some insignias are at.
If Anet feels like FoW armor should be included, since its access is not limited to ToA in Tyria, I don't mind, just don't change the other armors.

Elementalists gain a new armor mod in Nightfall. Additional Energy.
This armor mod is not available in the previous versions and is grossly overpowered vs existing Prophecies/Factions armor mods for elementalists.

It irks me, but I have to agree with this. I'd like to keep my ele in his super sexy pimp suit (aka hydromancer 15k), but I'm tired of having mods more worthless than... well, nothing is more worthless than armor vs cold, except maybe knights. Being able to put +hp armor on him (far superior to +e) without changing his look would be nice.
I already bought the mods because I assumed that something this logical would be in the game from the start.

There are both good and bad points inregarding to bringing insignias to armours from the old chapters. What will happen to existing armour that players have bought? Will this be seen as a PvE Nerf? These issues need to be addressed before we simply go ahead and decide to change it cause we feel it should be so otherwise we may start another flamewar over in the forums regarding this issue with dozens of threads making the same complaint over and over again like whats happening here at the moment with HA and Heros and other issues.
See what i mean.... the inscription for items from the older chapter have also caused some heavy disccussions prior to release and now that we learn that it only affect NF weapons, everyone seem to be pleased with the arrangement. As for insignia for armours in older chapters, it will open another can of worms.

I'm pretty sure once chapter 4 comes out they will allow insigs to go on older armor.
Remember insigs is part of the selling point of Nightfall. A.net needs to make a profit afterall.
