Did anyone bother recording what materials were needed for each armor. Or did anyone notice any difference in materials needed to craft armors?

For example, we know that the 15k will require jades and rubies. What about normal armors? Warrior armor in particular

(Note: I wasn't able to play during the FPE)

Maybe you can get some info from http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Main_Page.

I get all my information from there.

Someone seen armor requiring rubies during the event?

I seen Jade and Amber...maybe you're thinking of Amber. As of this moment, I don't believe anyone has found anything requiring rubies or sapphires for crafting materials yet.

yes jade and amber will be required for the 15k versions of armors.
jade=luxon
amber=kurzick

if i recall, warrior armors required mostly the same things they do now, so start hoarding your iron and hides and cloths. those are very common and are used in crafting alot of the classes armor. also i've seen people hoarding vials of ink, another good idea, because the monk armor required this if i remember.

For 15k, you'll need Jade or Amber depending on if you're buying Luxon or Kurzick. I saw the basic materials (hides, etc.) used, and Chiten, and all that stuff. Not much change for the most part, except for a few underused materials.

Ink is a major part of Ritualist armors. I'm stockpiling it as we speak.

I believe all tattoos required vials of ink in Factions... necro too.

Could be wrong, but...

I want to know if ectos and shards will still be used in crafting armor???
If not used in FPE, then my stockpile of them is useless......and serves as
nothing more than a trophy, I sure hope not...

Even if Ecto and Obsidian won't be used in Factions that doesn't mean they'll be useless. After all FoW armor is there to stay.

sorry for the double post...

I know for a fact some people here used Assassins for the PVE and I can't seem to find any topic inwhich the materials used for crafting Assassin's armor is listed.

Can someone please enlighten me? I don't need a detailed list, just generally what materials are used.

You're making an assumption unless you can post a link that proves Anet has confirmed this.

No-one knows. During the FPE all Assassin armor needed exactly the same amount of Iron and Steel (iirc, didn't bother taking screenshots). But I would bet my IDS that we'll see some major changes there.

Same with the Necro armor. All the different styles required the same materials. I do remember Monstrous Claws as one of the Rare Materials required. But I'm pretty sure that will all change by the time April 27 rolls around.

Anyone know where amber is dropping? It's going for 4-4.5k now and it seems like random people are selling it @ House zu Helter.

AFAIK Amber doesn't drop, but may eventually be salvaged from Amber Wands...
