Looking around both Wikis, I can't seem to figure what everyone is talking about.
How are you guys seeing 5 new armors for Warrior and 4 for everyone else?
5 Warrior Armors?

We have no idea. But it's true: Warriors get one more set than everyone else.

Either there is and you know what they are or there isnt 5.

Warrior has a norn set, ebon vanguard set, asura set, and two deldrimor sets. That's 5.
Vermilion Okeanos
Apparently there are 5 sets... 2 from dwarven crafter, and 1 all else.

While the other four can be found in the wiki.

Perhaps because Warriors are the single most played class?
Also, their Dwarven armour is a pretty basic reskin, much worse than any of the other classes get. The male one especially looks almost exactly the same as the Norn set. They may have added the Silver Eagle set in afterwards to make up for that.

maybe the 5th set ie: eagle version, is in works for all classes?

I've seen more eles than wars recently.
Also, take a look at ele and necro armour, with the exception of female ele norn, all of theirs are awful and all are obvious reskins. Very disappointing.

Dervs have a better AoE, stronger weapons, better energy management, more versitile skill pool, lower armour but usually their enchants make up for that.

I dont think they are pointless, and I love my Warrior...
of my 700played hours, 600 or so have been on him.
My opinion is that it is because Warrior armours have the potential to look so cool, and as the stats dont really matter, people focus on the skin more.... maybe lol.
But IMO ANet does seem to put way more effort into Warrior armour, and always has lol. I aint complaining though

Not to mention Dervish seems to attract everyone who was an Assassin in Factions, so they're a bunch of useless tards who rush in without backup and think, "lawl Mystic Regen will keep me alive kthxbai".

Yet so vulnerable against enchantment stripping. And so few condition skills for each type (bleeding, weakness, etc...). If you're going to mention the other person's spelling then at least get your own correct. I think the words you were looking for were: Dervish, versatile, and armor. On a final note, skilled warriors never run into energy management issues. The less skilled ones usually run adrenaline builds (not trying to say all adrenaline builds are for the less skilled). Maybe you're just one of those W/E's that love trying to use Meteor Shower. In that case, suck less.
By the way, I love my Dervish.

Firstly, I abbreviated dervish, versatile... well you have a point there but armour is right because I'm British, hence 'Saviour' in my name. That's just how things are done here. One spelling mistake isn't the same as posting a two word response wherein both words don't exist, not even as abbreviations. I think chat speak is against the rules anyway.
You're right about the enchant stripping, in some areas, taking a warrior over a dervish does pay off but overall, the dervish is usually the better to take. The skill pool may not be as extensive but it's better. The class is also a lot easier to play, which is important when you're picking up some random person you've never spoken to before (not that many play with other people any longer...). Sure, as you say, skilled warriors don't run in to energy problems but some do and many still run the nastier adrenaline builds - see the post above yours which hints at it.
No, I'm not a W/E using meteor shower. I played a warrior a while back but I didn't enjoy it. I prefer the caster classes and whilst I like playing a dervish more than a warrior, I'm still a lot more partial to my necromancer and elementalist, hence my comment on their armour.
To get back on topic; it's unfair and annoying for the warrior to get an extra armour. There's no reason for the other classes to miss out and I'm not sure why anet did this...

The Warrior have 5 types gives me HOPE.
Hope that there was intended to be 5 per class and that Anet is working on the 9.
Which would give GWEN 50 sets.

The last thing ArenaNet needs to do is waste any more developer time on GW1. Stop enabling those who would turn GW into Barbie Fashion Fever (tm).
But do please add hard mode, which shouldn't be much harder than flipping a few bits and cracking the whip on a bunch of playtesters.

The thing that's most depressing about this armor set is not only is it warrior exclusive, it's also the most well done, interesting, and most importantly consistent armor set in the whole expansion.

The lasses get an open FoW helm, so for me it balances out.
chowmein69
there should be 5 armor for every profession
Aranox
While it is indeed one of the best armors (one of the few decent) in the expansion,
you still get screwed over since you can't add it to the Hall of Monuments unlike the other armors.

The Big Bird armor? You people are overreacting I don't think most warriors are in love with it. I guess uniqueness breeds a cult around it already though.
Woden
It's almost more like 3 sets of armor for each class, and 4 for warriors. The Dwarf armors for all the other professions aren't really sets, just individual pieces and some cross-profession gloves/headgear.
Shadowfox1125
To be honest, I don't like the Silver Eagle armor that much, so having 5 armors for warriors doesn't really make me feel any more special. But, the other classes do have some hope that they will get another set because of this 5th set.

I didn't say most warriors love it. I *did* say that it was the most "together", original, and well done armor set in the expansion so far.
street peddler
everyone is seriously overreacting over this whole armor thing.
And if this were dwarven armor you would be complaining it's a reskin of primeval, where does it end?

Its shares a similar silhoute to Luxon warrior armor, but if you compare it side by side, its completely rebuilt.

You want to know why Warriors get another armor set? It's to compensate for all the crappy armor sets already have. Fo' serious. Warriors have the most hideous armor compared to the rest.

Funny how it's pretty much people with "Profession: W/x" under their usernames saying it's okay.
I think the armor's pretty cool-looking, myself. It's one of the few armor sets I'd consider buying. Damn shame I'll never get it because I only play Warrior class every now and then, though. So, um, why DO only Warriors get this extra set? I mean, are the rest of the classes coming soon or is Anet showing bias? Have we gotten any official statement on this?

I have worn my 15k Glads since my second week of playing [at 19 months now] and the 15k Kurzick is the only thing I ever THOUGHT of wearing since then. The fifth armor set is actually decent.

BS.
They can keep the big bird armor. I have my eye on the Monument or Asuran set.

Okay, despite that one guys BS arguement about Dervishs making warriors obsolete, it doesn't change the fact that warrior IS the most played class in the game. Its the class that most new players start with.
Hopefully, a.net will add in another 9 sets (well, 18, male and female) of silver eagle armor for the other professions.
