new armor type?

I've just noticed a guy in the backgrounw on the Xunlai tournament hause page, which i've never seen before

http://www.guildwars.com/competitive...se/default.php

Is it a news [gw:en] armor ar am I missing something ?

sorry if it was asked before

That warrior armor? Nah, it's been around since CH1, as a set of collector armor in CH1. And you can buy that set in factions from the exotic armor guy, south of the market place.

Stefan, the henchman wear that armor set as well.

its just cg art :/

I think you'll find the op was referring to the guy in the page background in the top right hand corner, not the picture of stefan in the banner.

Ah! why can't I see it? :P nevermind my post then, sorry about that.

I know the stefan/colector armor, I was refering to the top right corner guy.

Yeah I just realized, i got a flash plug-in for firefox turn off by default, sorry again.

I do now this issue has been brought up before, can't find the thread anymore however. The armor was concieved to be a Kurzick concept armor if I'm correct. It's definately not something from GW:EN, and has been on the offical site for some time.

Yeah, it's been posted and discussed before. It's in one of the concept art books, and was most likely an idea for Kurzick NPC armor, probably a guard.

It's funny how people suddenly 'discover' these things over and over again...this is old news as such.

There have been threads about this before.

Its not even concept art, thats the armour worn by Kurzick guards around HZH

For you maybe, but it's new to me. Shame the armour isn't for players because it looks cool. Better than shitty Ascalon War. armour.

Now when You mentionet it I remember the thread Its an armor of Kurzick Guardians Old news - that even Kronos [master of all time] doesn't remember it ;D

Ah... the human memory, those vast stretches of already explored territority, yet it fadeth so easily into the void...

Funny how these things pop up every other week.
