What have we all (probably) noticed about the prestige armor over the last month?
Everyone is basically wearing the same ones and it takes the variety away which prestige armor was meant to introduce.
There are times you enter an outpost in GWEN and you think your in a rave in a club because all you see are glowing hands everwhere. Its almost at the point where its took the fun out of it.
Or you see 10 people in a day wearing destroyer gauntlets and we all know its because both sets are the most expensive and the best looking.
I question anyone who says they didnt buy either pair for the l33t factor!
Yet we have others, and no one seems to even touch them. Such as the stone, dragon or ice gloves and who could blame them because their not astounding.
We need a bit more variety in prestige armor, especially gloves. Either they can add more collectors, add more gloves to existing collectors or have prestige armor drop from dungeon chests.
Surely adding more prestige armor which can be used by any class is ALOT easier then adding whole new armor sets?
Mayb even have a competition to design new prestige armor/gloves? The top 4 or 5 get added!
Add more prestige armor...

The only reason a lot of people have prestige armor in Guild Wars is because they've learned to farm. The community will continue to share their builds and experiences and as a result, a vast majority of players will be able to accumlate vast amounts of wealth. As for me...
I see plenty of monks with 15k kurzick, dyed black. But I still like seeing it on my character.
I don't see too many assassins with 15k luxon dyed black, let alone with a 15k kurzick mask to top the set.
I haven't seen a single person with my unique dervish armor combination.
I rarely see female obsidian clad warriors. As it is, obsidian armor isn't that common of a sight.
Perhaps you're jumping the gun a bit.

Well Since it's a free to play MMORPG I don't think we're the ones to make certain decisions. I smell a Mod With a key closing this thread anyway since Jade has already posted the links of 3 more threads similar

I have seen a warrior with Krytan body,magma gauntlet and fow legs and shoes on a warrior before, dyed all black, it was very nice.
Ever see a female assassin with Seitung body, canthan legs? It is also very nice.
Some people just need creativity instead of more armors.

i'd like to see more prestige armours like FoW, personally a Torment armour would rock imo, anytihng to bring up ectos again, i liked how that worked and how it was kinda stable,

Question: What would people think about Armor being available on the online store? (NOT FoW)
If not, why is it any different then spending hours getting armor?
If yes, should it be different or the same as existing armor? (excluding FoW, end-of-Chapter armor?)
EDIT: Has this been posted?

/not signed as there is enough sets of prestige armour in the game as is.I still want my set of FoW.
Master Sword Keeper
Yea i try to mix and match the armour(s) That i buy. Grab a female assasin.
(Seitung Top) Imperial leggings and 15k Kurzick boots. Ancient Mask and gloves.
Dye it all pink or black
and there we have a unique but sensational armour set.

As it was stated before, there are enough already. If Anet decides to add more that aren't reskins, great. Really, how many do you need?

I'd rather see more normal sets... they are often just as nice and are a lot cheaper.
For example, warriors have 14 normal sets and 18 elite sets.

OK, I don't mean to turn this into something it isn't...but.
With all that concept art and it all feeling the same thing, is Utopia a possibility during our 2 - 3 year wait???

I'm not sure if the problem is a lack of armors. I think what it is is a lack of armor compatibility. For instance; My Ele has a Luxon chest tunic, Canthan pants, Shing Jea shoes, and Droknars Gloves. I think it's one of the best combinations I've seen, though I'm sure there are those that would argue. 
I think the problem is that each 15k set is so highly stylized and matched that you can't mix them around with any other peices, at least not without looking weird, so they give less of an opprotunity to come up with intriuging combinations.

I am really sorry, but common. 4 in GWEN, 1 in Proph, 3 in Factions, 1 or 2 in NF, and thats Per class and sex... Even more if you count other armors that are also highend but not considered prestige.
I just do not think we need more. Sure right now, Everyone has GWEN armors. Big Whoop... Grats on being the ones that followed everyone else. Indeed I am happy with my 1k armor from Kourna. lol so grats you wasted tons of gold and ecto. OHHH AHHH. Are you any better a player then I am or anyone else? Nope. not even a better AC for your trouble. in the end all that effort went into yet another skin of a different flavor.. No great achievement if you ask me. You could have just used texmod and reskined your 1k armor to one of the others if you wanted too. WOW big whoppty...
Are they cool looking? Sure. Do they matter? Not really... Do we need more of them? Again, not really, there are a TON of options now for armors in this game. Don't like being like everyone else switch or mix and match... Sometimes that actually REALLY looks good.
Again I would pay $9.99 for a guild hall service that allowed you to do Armor sampling to see how things would look before you went to buy the armor skins. then you could significantly tryout mix and match sets before making a decision what to buy in game...

I wanted war FoW before, but for this exact reason I dont...
It doesn't even have to be new armor, they could take off the GWEN reskins
