I love my assassin (got a level 20 pve male and female version.). However, I envy Anton's armor. (EOTN SIN HERO) IMO, the best sin armor ever.

Dear Anet,

If Anton can have pointless swords behind him, so can we!!!! Please make some elite or even basic maxed version of this armor!!!!! It's awesome!!! And no, I think trying to use a combination of elite and basic maxed armor to almost look like Anton's just isn't working.

Sincerely,
Devoted GW player!

Yeah! As a Prophecies armor for Assassins (like Nightfall has some for assassin even if there are not assassins native from there...)

And there is at least one assassin native from Prophecies lands: Anton.

OK, the swords have meaning - so give us 2 or 4 instead of 3.

But give us swords

It will help make up for the horrible hodgepodge of deldrimore assassin armor. Seriously, does any piece of that go with any other sin armor in game? If so, I haven't found it yet.

Yes, because assassins carry huge lumbering swords on their backs.

You already have armors with ridiculously large spikes all over them that couldn't possibly contribute to a stealthy assassination, and now you want this? :S

Need more 'sensible' assassin armor if you ask me...

what the Assassin really needs is the vagrant armor concept of that guy from that other english Elite GW Forum...

that here



that guy who has drawn all those pictures on gwincgamers or how the forum is called should be really taken into the concept drawer team of anet ^^

just top art !!

b^,^d

So should Assassins hopefully look in GW2. That vagrant Armor is a perfect mix style between asian culture ninja like Assassins (Kunais, Shurikens, Ninjutsu Magic and asian Martial Arts) and persian Assassins in the style of Assassins Creed (Katars, Masters of Deadly Poisons, Masters of the Shadows AND STEALTH ARTS) making together a fast and silent killer with a gameplay full of style and action. Which way to kill it's foes looks like graceful Art. So should be Assassins in GW2 and hopefully not again have armors, that let them look like mutated hedgehogs >.>

his armor is a bit too simple for me
make it more prestigeous
like combine the assassin's creed armor that makes you look all mysterious and stuff with those 3 blades on his back
would look kinda cool
/signed but i'd like to see it a bit tweaked

Anton has the best sin armor. Why doesn't anet make such an amor in the silver eagle style , like a secondary dwarven armor.

Kinda gave me an idea, I think it'd be cool to get a decorative sword on your armor as a sort of prestiege for completing certain areas/whatever. Shouldn't be able to get an too many to where it looks rediculous. Different sword designs for different acomplishments and you can pick which ones to show.

He has three armors.

The default one ould be the Tyrian, one the other two could be prestige ones: One in the Granite citadel, one in Marhan's Grotto.

Hm. Well, why not? It'd be neat to have some sort of Prophecies Art for Assassins. Not to mention Dervishes, Ritualists, and even Paragons. And, yeah, Core Professions has plenty of armor.

Yeah. And covering the WHOLE body with a single color.

Something to mix with the Mo Zing mask to have a full-colored ninja suit.

I'd take any day a couple of swords on my back, rather then look like a pin pillow.

Male's Canthan Elite is the closest to Anton's armor, but Anton's is still way better.

Come on anet!!! What you afraid of? Anton's armor appearing more better than fow? LOL. I love fow but it's pretty bland.

Assassins definately need more armor. It would be nice if we could also use a two-handed sword for the ninja "aspect" of assassins. It would be more "realistic" if thier attributes were as follows,
Critical Strikes(primary)-same as current
Daggers-same as current
Shadow Arts- Same as current
Deadly Arts-Same as current, except maybe some more poison skills
Swordsmanship-The art of weilding a katanas and such

Many people envy the armors of EotN heroes (not just Anton's).

There is a reason hero armor always looks better then player armor. That is because all hero armor is designed to be in one piece. ie... it can't be mixed and matched since it doesn't have the proper seams between armor pieces.

It wouldn't be possible to do this smoothly without heavily modifying Anton's armor's design.

Although this doesn't exactly belong here, but I would also like to see Morgahn's armor for Paragons. They need a few more armors with pants (only norn exist so far, and that's a skirt + tights).

Make ALL hero armor availible for the expansion professions in Prophecies (except the doubles obviously, such as Zenmai's) and for Core, add in a silver eagle equal in the form of another heroe (Monk: Tahlkora/Dunkoro, Warrior=Koss's second/Jora's, Necro=MoW's/Livia's, etc. etc.) And Come on, what guy doesn't want some female warriors in jora's armor running in towns?

Dear Phantom Flux,

Trying to personalize a letter to Anet won't get them to listen to you any more than a standard post. Also, post forms like this kind of creep me out.

Love,

Nope, Shing Jea armor is not single colored. It's black and creates two shades of the dye color. And do not cover the entire body.

I meant a single color, without very distinguishable shades. Something a bit like Vabbian Assassin armor diedd black, without the spikes.

They, A-Net, should do a design an armor contest instead of design a wep. You would get some amazing armors out'a that.

The problem is I believe that Anet is severely limited in how they can make armors. They have to take into consideration clipping issues with 30 other armor sets and the 1000s of weapons. The fact that Anton's armor is so different might be the exact reason why they are unable to readily implement it for players. Besides, if they made it a 15k set you know they would screw it up and add 101 spikes. Because spiky armor is good.

I seriously doubt were going to be getting any new armors at all in GW1, but /signed for GW2 to have better armors like this.

His armor is cool (though my assassin would need a female version. lol. But depending on how that was done it might/might not look good. ). They probably wouldn't make a version for players though.

And someone mentioned Pyre's armor...his spiky armor is my fav.

Hahhhh Anton's brotherhood armour with the apron .../walks like a Zombie towards Anton.
If I could get my hands on that I would be a very happy Sin... but at the same time any of his armours look cool and so do the ones of the sins in the BMP >.>
Of course ours are nice too but those others would add some versatility to it and just look damn nice XD.

If Warriors can get Eagle Armor and Tyrian Elite armor all of a sudden, the Assassin should atleast get Anton's armor for Eagle Armor. Zenmai can already wear Shing Jea, Vabbi and Ancient.

Same of the other classes. Make it fair. FOW armor is quite boring now. IMO.

Even if some of the heroes' armours are aweomse (Melonni's and Sousuke's Primeval, Anton's, Xandra's, Hayda's and Jora's), I find that precisely because they are 'hero-only' armors they are attractive.

Though, I fully agree on the fact that GW:EN armors are mostly new versions of already existing armors ... sad.

I like that. almost similar to Anton's armor. Although, I think it isn't fair to make such hot looking armor for Anton and have some sin players feel they can only get something of lesser interest. Not saying we all want Anton's armor, but come on anet.......

The Gwen sin armors are already boring. Soooo make us Anton's armor!!!!! If Everquest and WOW can work such wonders, GW should be able as well.

well, here you see quite the good difference, how stylish persian Assassins with Katars are over asian ninjalike looking Assassins.

Persian ones at least look like how Assassins should look like XD - scary, mysterious, dangerous, silent and graceful in one personality.

The only good aspects about the ninja style Assassin about their gameplay is their Martial Arts, Ninjutsu Magic and that they use Kunais and Shurikens based on a more ranged fighting style, because the ninjalike Assassins fight only in melee, when they are FORCED too do so, while persian original Assasins are the true killers, which search for the melee confrontation with their poisoned Katars which are superior combat weapons over silly daggers, which are just only the weapons of simple Rogues and not Assassins.
The ninjalike Assassins don't fight with Daggers, their fight either with Swords in Melee, the Ninja-To (which are NOT Katanas, Katanas are the Swords of Samurais -.-) or they fight in a dual wielding style with 2 short swords, the so called Kodachis or Wakizashis, even bladed Tonfas are more ninja like melee Weapons, than stupid Daggers are.

I hope really, that Assassins in GW2 will look alot more persian in the style of Assassins Creed and that their gameplay will be also a better mix between both cultures, asian ninja style and persian reward hunter style and never again Assassin armors, that let us look like mutated hedgehogs >.<
