Really really hope them could be combined....

Warrior - 15k Kurzick with Berserker stats
Ranger - Kurzick with Explorer stats
Monk - Kurzick with (whatever the +health armour is) and Luxon (whatever the +armour while enchanted is)

Stupid question, but is there a topic around with the pics of both Kurzicks and Luxon armors for the various classes/genders?

I don't know which armor skin is Canthan, Kurzick or Luxon, I know the sentinel skin is Kurzick. Therefore, here's a link to show the armor styles I'm getting.

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Armor_types

Male monk Disciple's and Shepherd's skin
Female ranger...undecided
Female necro Minion Master's and Revenant's skin (considering pieces of Blighter's)
Female warrior Legionnaire's and Sentinel's skin
Male assassin Saboteur's skin
Female ritualist...undecided

My ele will get 15k archmage, for the stats. I don't know what style she will have if we do indeed have a choice.

My mes will almost certainly get 15k Kurzick armour, not sure on the set - maybe enchanter's as she doesn't have a 15k version of enchanter's yet.

My monk... unknown. She will probably get 15k shepard's, or 15k ascetics.

My 2 new characters: ritualist and ranger (maybe assassin but don't know yet) haven't had armour picked for them yet. They will get max collector's first before I make my final decision. Mind you the 15k Luxon Ritualist stuff (if I'm thinking of the right stuff) is very nice.

There is a topic in the screenshot section about different sets of armor in factions, with all the new armors for exsisting and new classes, they dont have all of the 15k sets though, and im not sure if they show which are kursick and luxon, but there is a few pics.

I dont know how the Ritualist armors. Sorry XD

Ok Canthan Armors use these skins:
Warrior: "Legionnaire"
Ranger: "Explorer"
Mesmer:"Masquerade"
Monk: "Sheperds"
Elementalist:"Archmage"
Necromancer: "Minion Master"

The style of Canthan armor seems to be very "royal" or elegant.

Luxons armors:
Warrior: "Berserker"
Ranger: "Scout"
Mesmer: "Charlatan"
Monk: "Acolyte"
Elementalist:"Tempest"
Necromancer: "Revenant"
Assassin: "Valkyrie"

The Luxon armors are a giveaway with their very organic design, lots of jade beads, very "rough", assymetrical style plus lots of "sheer" material (Very gypsy-ish o.o)

Kurzick use these skins:
Warrior: "Sentinel"
Ranger: "Sentry"
Mesmer:"Savants"
Monk: "Disciple"
Elementalist:"Battlemage"
Necromancer: "Blighter"
Assasin: "Nightstalker"

The Kurzick skins are very refined, they use lace, leather. Its very "snobby", thats the best i can come up with o.o

I already bought 15K armor for my ele and necro, so they'll keep what they have. My geomancer's armor is so pretty I refuse to stop wearing it, even if it is hugely inferior to the new +10 vs. physical ele armor.

For my Warrior: Kurzick Gladiators. Hooray, extra energy without having to run around in a leather skirt!

For my Monk: Canthan or Kurzick Ascetic's. Hooray, extra energy without having to run around in a loincloth!

Mesmer (female): Will get most of the Kurzick armor especially 15k/Savant and Masquerade, and maybe the 15k Luxon. (do not like other Luxon mesmer armors)

Warrior (male): 1st armor to get is Legionaire and then 15k (the Batman one, Sentinel)

Necro (male): Minion Master, just because it looks the best

Monk (female): Not sure, do not really like them that much. And if my opinion stays that way I'm gonna go and buy fow armor for my monk

Ranger (female): Explorer

I saw this after I posted above.

Yes I'm with you 100%, legionnaires armor is the one to get if you tank with stances.
Lots of people will be going for the sentinel with its 100 AL but legionnaires armor is the one.

I can't stand the monk's tattoos, the loin cloth is so annoying and ugly... I mean, he's more covered up when he takes it off... so if there's monk armor that can give me the same energy bonus, I intend to get that, or at least pants.

My warrior will get the sentinel for sure. As for the other armors, it's too early to say.

I'll see what the 15k armours look like before I say anything. And how big the increased storage is, since it's a bit tight ATM...

Yeah, it seems like the Revenant or even MM would make a lot more sense for a female Kurzick necro. I wouldn't have guessed they'd use Blighter.

Minion Master is Canthan (according to the IGN article) so that elimates it as an option. And frankly Revenant is too organic looking to be anything but Luxon. Maybe i should add "Contemporary" to Kurzick's design aesthetics. Very clean lines (compare Disciple to Acolyte in monk armor design)

Hmm...

For my nec, i'll get either Kurzick or Canthan.

For ranger i'll stick with fow/studded for some time.

Warrior...i don't really know, the female warrior armors doesn't look that good (metal thong <____>), but so far i think the Luxon is best looking.

My upcoming assassin will get the kurzick armor for sure :3

As for ritualist, i didn't get to see any but the kurzick armor, so i don't know about that one :l

and thanks for the info, Lyra

I'm just saying that Revenant looked the most like what I remember Kurzicks looking like.

If you're referencing the IGN article I think you are, it doesn't say anything like that.

Either way, I regard all of this as pure speculation until the final product is delivered.

My monk is gonna get Acolyte's Shirt atleast ... It isnt very good looking but has good stats. (becouse of boon protting in gvg, [most important for me]) I really hope that there wuold be FOW edition from that armor. **Hoping the best and saving some money**

BTW this may be wrong thread to ask this but do any of u know how these pvp rewards (kurzick and luxon) factions are related to these armor buyings. I'm really not very intrested in farming the all boring uw or sf anymore. I wuold love to get economical benefits from pvp/gvg/HoH

Well, I'm gonna have 5 characters + my assassin to outfit, so it's probably gonna have to be 1.5k stuff for me.

E/W Currently in 15k Geomancer - Battlemage top and gloves most likely.

W/R Currently in 15k Glads gloves and boots, 1.5k hauberk and 1.5k knights leggings - quite possibly a legionaires set.

Mo/Me Currently in 15k Saintly and 1.5k arm tatoos - Staying as she is.

W/E Currently in full 1.5k Ascalon - Legionaire's, definitely.

N/R Currently in 15k bonelace leggings, bloodstained boots, 1.5k fanatics gloves and necromancers tunic - still working on her, so havent decided.

After spending nearly three months collecting the ecto, shards and gold for my fissure armor, I don't think I'm ever going to buy a new armor for my ranger
