Well, even though, to me, the Kurzick/Luxon thing could've been handled better, it would be nice if we could upgrade our heroes in their respective armour skins to give that specific feel to your team. Also, it would give me something to do in GW again.

With that I always felt it a shame that you cannot get armour for Para's and Derv's there even though NF does have armour for Rits and Sins. Now this is an old question but it goes together with my main point of getting more armour skins for the heroes.

I gripe a lot about not having anything to do anymore in GW, so here's a suggestion of something that I would enjoy getting myself into.

More armours for Dervs and Paras will be a very nice addition, but only in Factions becouse Prophecies should stay Coreish campaign in my opinion.

That will need a lot of work. In the same fashion, people would expect Marhan Grotto and Granite Citadel armors for Assassin, Ritualist, Dervish, Paragon. Then Elite Sunspear and Primeval armors for Assassin and Ritualist. And why is there no Elite Exotic and Elite Imperial armors for core professions? Why no Elite Canthan for Elonian professions?

Won't happen, and it's justified lore-wise, since those professions weren't available by the time the first two campaigns were conceived and have currently no coverage also in terms of weapon drops, skills and whatever.

So, /signed for variety, but it just won't happen IMO...

Well, I disagree that it would go against lore unless you think that paragons and dervishes going to cantha is against lore...and well, my derv and para have gone to cantha, so why not add the armours? They are out there helping them, aren't they? The reason why I ask for kurzick/luxon armours is because I do realise it would go too far to ask for everything and this seemed the one that would add the most.
For the heroes I would suspect it wouldn't be that much more work as it would for the chars as the armour skins already exist for most classes. But then if you want the upgrades for your para and derv heroes then you might as well make em for the characters too. But I guarantee you that Gwen would look great in Kurzick 15k (granted I am a Kurzick player), but I am sure that the Luxon players wouldn't mind seeing Livia in Luxon 15k for example.
So yes we could ask for end game armours and prophecies armours and the whole lot but this seems the most fun for the least amount of work.

Too late, there are already Spears and Scythes in the endgame area.

It won't need that much work if Anet just does a quick job like with EN. Yes people will complain but if the colors are different enough, other people won't care. Seeing how they got the armors. Elite Exotic and Elite Imperial should only add more if Primeval and Elite Sunspear adds Sin and Rit armors.

And you're "justified lore-wise" would only be accurate if there were no sin/rit stuff in Prophecies*end game greens* NF *elites, armors, weapons* and EN *same as NF* and there were no para/derv stuff in Prophecies/Factions*endgame greens* or EN *elites, armors, weapons*. Therefore, it is in no way lore-based for the weapons and armors, as the "only in this continent" professions have things in all games now.

Anyways, always /signed for new content

You could always get the armor remnants for the Heroes from the challenge missions. Each side has two so you could split up Nightfall and EOTN Heroes. Or have them drop from the chest at the end of the Elite areas as a way to revive them in the process. Maybe a chance to get either an armor remnant or a Jade Shard/Amber Chunk instead of a guaranteed drop.

I disagree with the heroes armor sets (since very few people actually care about those anyways, although with the challenge missions already in place, a way to distrubute them is easily added). It's just more time then it is worth.

More Dervish and Paragon armors is a good idea though since they are pretty restricted. Especially the paragon. All of the paragon armors look the same. The details are different, but compare an ele's options (trenchcoat, robe, "wetsuit", bikinis, skirts, pants, body wraps) to a paragon's (white form fitting armor, with a skirt).

New hero armour's a nice idea, but I'd rather Anet do something more productive with their time, especially seeing as we can't mix and match armour pieces for our heroes.

New player armour's always welcome in my opinion.

It would be nice to have the armor pieces drops in the challenge missions, I think with one exception I've never even seen another player in the Aurios Mines, and that one time I did the other player was mapping the adjacent zone as I was. This would bring some much-needed activity to the challenge missions, and provide ANet with some feedback on how to make them more enjoyable that they have never really had, due to the lack of interest.

It actually makes sense to me, especially if they've added luxon and kurzick derv and para skills
but I definantly don't see elite sunspear rit or sin armor since they are supposed to be from another continent and not part of the original elonian sunspear group (and a hero shall lead them) doesn't apply to foreign ppl

It makes sense to me that all the non-core professions should have an equal number of armor sets. It also fits, for me, that the Kurzicks and Luxons would have adopted these new fighters in their eternal struggle against each other, and started making armors for them.

I don't think this implies that they need to make equivalent Prophecies armors armors because there is no precedent. Assassins and Rits get two extra armor sets in Nightfall; Vabbian and Ancient. However, none of the four new professions got armor in Prophecies. That being the case, it seems like they should equalize the four non core professions and give Dervs and Paragons two extra sets of armor; Luxon and Kurzick.

Though this does not mean I wouldn't be happy giving all proffessions the same number of armors. >_>

Oh, and /Signed... in case my rambling disguised my intentions.

Though the topic has been beaten to death, as long as it's up, I suppose I might as well say:

How cool would it be if the major delay on the HoM update was because we're getting Proph armor for Factions chars and Proph + Factions armor for NF chars? Unlikely yes, but I'm curious how the account-wide armor monument will look as it's supposed to take on the form of whoever is in the Hall at the time.

Interesting, no? But unlikely still.

New Armor sets for all non-core professions. Just made a thread similar to this. Oh how great minds do think alike and it would be great if anet made such new armors to give us something more to do. I'm getting pretty bored of gw already. :-(

Why would you bump a thread that's been dead for well over 2 years when you already made a thread that basically covers this point?

I didn't know about this thread until someone posted the link into mine. Both threads relate very well to each other. I'm showing support. ;-)
