I'm seriously considering to delete my female paragon and start over as male. The female armor is just atrocious. If those swimsuits can be called armor at all. I can understand that some people prefer to have sexy armor on females, but unlike warriors, there simply isn't a choice to wear anything modest at all for paragons. That's what I'm asking for, a choice to put on something modest. Kormir is wearing full armor, why can't I?
I love the male vabbi armor, nice heavy breastplate and ornaments. But once put on a female, the beautiful platemail suddenly turns into a horribly ugly and humilitating bra, even female elemental armor is more covering then this... thing.
Being a female in real life, I find these armors detestable and insulting. It's supposed to be platemail, and leaves all the important parts uncovered. There is no armor at all that covers the entire torso, NONE! Most don't even come half way. The only one slightly acceptable in my book is Obsidian Armor as it manages to cover quite a bit, but I don't feel like ebaying some gold to be able to afford that huge price tag.
So can I please have a female paragon armor that covers:
* Belly
* Area between and above the boobs, no clevage dammit!
* Neck
* Arms from elbow to wrist
* Feet and legs upto the knee
* Waist to knee
* Preferably shoulders and upper arms
With cover, I mean cover with solid platemail, not the semi-transparant white cloth stuff that surely looks 'great' when wet.
Or simply has an undersuit, like the grey suit seen at the knees and waist of the female templar armor.
For comparison:
Warrior female sunspear, krytan, tyrian, shing jea, ancient, canthan, kurzick armor is GOOD
Warrior female luxon, vabbian, ascalon, charr hide, gladiator, platemail, templar/elite templar is BAD
Thank you.
Paragon females are not sexy barbie dolls!

Hehe, actually I like the current skin-armours xD
Also, if they start changing para female armour,
I recommend to change the male armour first..
A man with nipples? ew..

On topic... I wouldn't mind something a touch more... covered, yeah.
But not full platemail, 'cuz platemail is fugly, and not particularly... paragon-y
If there were more sets about the same level as Obsidian...

Damn its like theres been a feminist uprising here...
You are complaining about Paragon Female armor not covering. Neither does the male. The concept of the armor is lose fitting hermes-ish stuff.
There are armors that cover for every class, don't get so up in arms about it. Yes there should be a few cheaper options, but this is gotting way blown out of proportion.

I don't really like the revealing clothing on female elementalists either. Which is why obsidian armor for them is awesome.

Theres another thread in a sub forum here from a female gamer who has the same views about coverage of armor on toons, and how it would be nice to have a wider varity for the more modest gamers

If you really hate your armour being so revealing. Here's an idea :
Download texmod.
Open up image editing program (anything will do)
Get a texture of a blanket
Reskin all armour and skin to blanket texture.
And there you have it, all your chars are covered as modest as can be.

Though I'm male, I'd also like this. I usually prefer more plated characters.

Male paragons don't get a set of armour that doesn't make us look like eye candy for a Calvin Klein ad.
Talk about oppression!

i predict if this change was made you will see a mass deletion of female paragons

As a male i love the female paragon armor, obviously... But, I also agree there should be other options. If you want to run around half naked, awesome, but if you want to look like you are 'armored', thats great too and a lot more realistic. Especially considering Paragons are the only other 80 AL armor class in the game along with warriors... c'mon now a little more realism please.

There are modest armors for every class and no, they're not all high end armors either. Please check Wiki's armor section for pictures and proof.

Elementalist is having a hard time too although there are two or three. I pity those without Factions though.

I'd just like to say about the gladiator armor you mentioned, I think it's supposed to be that skimpy since the male version is almost exactly the same.
Anyway, I don't think you're going to be in much luck when Eye of the North comes out either since from the only Paragon set shown so far it looks like the same deal.

Armor doesn't always have to be practical. Look at 300. Their armor was the complete opposite...

Just wait for Eye of the North. Then you will see new armours, and maybe the one you wished.

So, what do you define as modest then? Wide fitting garment from head to toe which doesnt show any exposed skin?

Its a movie =P i realize GW is just a game also, but your actually fighting things and its 'supposed' to be realistic. Unlike movies these days.

No-one really cares, pay attention to the game not to the armour. Or stop complaining here and play another character or make a male paragon.
Problem solved, less of GWGuru's bandwidth wasted.
