This should not be missing in HARD MODE / GW:EN

1. Drops in Tyria/Canta should contain INSIGNIA and weapons with INSCRIPTIONS.

2. All armor, including old armor, should be upgraded to the Insignia system.

/notsign 100x notsign

Inscription is the exclusive feature from Nightfall ONLY. Unless you play and win HoH or else whoever have Prophecy or canthan only should not have access to inscription weapons/amours. Only can buy inscrip weapons but can not buy inscrp amours! Not even FoW/UW have those kind of inscrip weapons. The only way for canthan/prophecy can get inscrip amours is to buy FoW amour and/or buy nightfall!

Hes right.

/notsigned here

It should stay Nightfall only.

And why must it be exclusive?

I would also like to see the faces of people if GWEN does not have inscriptions or insignia. After all, it is Nightfall only...

Erm yeah... feel free to explain, see above...^^

I rarely see anyone in Prophecies armor anymore. One, because some are not as detailed as the newer armor sets. Two, because the inherent mods are not ideal for most uses.

I would love to have 1.5k or 15k Prophecies Rogue's armor for my Mesmer, because I love the look, but the stats are not the ones I like. I want to put Radiant insignias on it, not extra armor against physical damage. For many builds, energy is more important that armor.

Another example are the Prophecies Elementalist sets. The different styles should reflect the type of Ele who's wearing them, not what kind of damage they provide a smidge more protection from. Aeromancer, Geomancer, Pyromancer and Hydromancer... especially the 15k Marhan's variants. I'm sure they'd see more use if they were insignia-ready. Generic protection against elemental damage would work fine with these, akin to many Ranger armor sets.

Tyrian and Canthan armors need to be updated to match Elonian sets. Anet did it for FoW, they should do it for all!


/signed once for me, and fives times over for those who didn't.

1. Already suggested.
2. I'm positive they will do it.

There is absolutely no reason not to do it.

no on the weapons. period.

ill sign on the armors only.

Didn't Gail just comment on this issue? Reworking the old armors would require a major rewrite of the source code. Yes, it would be cool. Is it worth the time and effort? Absolutely not.

/not signed

If Gaile or you really think you need to rewrite SOURCE code to change the armors in the database, you are quite mistaken.

They have changed the old armors in the past, adding inscriptions really wouldn't be a problem.
However, as it's a feature of NF, and one of its selling features, it probably - just like material storage - will not be added to past campaigns until the next campaign arrives.

As for weapons, the player in me really wants inscriptions in Tyrian and Canthan weapons, but the trader in me really would despise that idea...so I'm torn.

/Not signed.

Armor in Tyria already has the insignias IN the armor. You want a certain type of insignia? Buy that variant of the armor. True that there are some insignias that are not present on those armors, but the most widely used ones such as the energy + armors are already readily available in Tyria.

Inscriptions.. I don't think they should be implemented into the other campaigns either. That's what makes the campaigns unique IMHO. Tyria is the original, Factions has AB, NF has inscriptions.

Not so sure about inscribeable weapons...

but /signed definitely for insignias on armour. Some Tyrian sets - 15k Aeromancer, Knight's and some of the necro armours are absolutely beautiful, why do their bonuses have to suck?

/notsigned about incribable weapons. It would ruin the economy.

/signed for armor, but keep in mind that it could take a long time to implament. Anybody else remember how long it took them to update Prophecies armor stats when they changes the modifiers on several sets of armor in Factions release?

If they were to change the armour, it would be better if they changed Tyrian armour to be like Canthan armour. This way you wouldn't be able to use the Nightfall exclusive insignias.

+ health??? It's easily the most generally useful and you can't get it in Tyria.

So you guys are saying that you don't want any given type of Tyrian armor style to have any given type of modifier on it?

That doesn't make sense... if someone wants 15k Necromancer armor in the Bonelace style (once again I'm referring to the Marhan's Grotto stuff), but to be Cabalist's/Radiant in nature, then they're just plain out of luck?

I would love to have that kind of option.

/signed for armors

New Tyria/Canthan armors should be changed to use insignias. Or at least as an option along with the current. If they can do it for fow armor they can do it for all the others.

/maybe signed for weapon drops...not decided....

/signed for armor, I loved the geomancer armor personally but who cares about earth damage, or fire or ice....let us make them personal. less cloning that way as well.

dont care about the weapons

~the rat~

Well I do understand that everyone want something new. They always want to have things that other people have with the least cost. But as someone said earlier, this will be hard. The coding to change everyone amour description will not be 1-2 pages of codes. It will be 10x more than that! And it's not fair for those who buy both or even all 3 campaigns. Paying more and have the same thing as buying 1? In order to have the outlook of prophecy amour, I think it's best to have the campain's upgrader! Any amour we buy from prophecy or canthan can be upgraded to use insigna. But this upgrader guy appear ONLY in Nightfall!

/sign if it's like that else still 100x not sign!

P/s: For the weapon, no exception. It's a 100% no no!

Amarr need a boooooost!

That said, having to change all of the function's on the armour will not take a lot of time to actually code in, but to apply to the populace will take a long time (See the Knight's Armour patch).

Yes for the armour.

As for weaponry, who cares about the market? It's already wacked out anyway.

Yes for weaponry.
