15k armour for pvp characters
roboky
Aye, I say that we should be able to unlock the 15k sets for pvp chars to by buying them or with faction. I want my pvp chars to look fashionable too

This is a good idea.

I agree, you should be able to unlock 15k armor.
Talic
Agreed. I would love to spend like 10k faction (something reasonable) to get 15k armor.
And off topic, i say we should be able to unlock black and silver dyes for PvP, through faction of course.

or just when u buy it u unlock it...

I doubt this will happen. I think the reason why they do this is to get people playing more pve. The ascended 15k armors would really be ascended armor anymore if you can just unlock it with faction. Maybe you can craft the armor with a pve character for pvp characters.

We will never get a storage in the hall because of this. It makes me sad. Maybe the guild storage could be for PvE players only? (Anet, listen up)

You should definitaly be able to unlock it, and by faction even. They wanna get rid of farming? Fine by me, but give us an alternative way to getting stuff besides gold then.
I'm a PvE character, but I can see the PvPer's point of views. 15k Armor is meant for fun. You shouldn't have to go through PvE if it's not fun to you, only to find that farming is constantly being diminished, making it impossible to get the armor you wanted.
Why shouldn't the PvPers be able to have the same fun as PvE'rs?
PS: Allow PvPers to unlock weapons equal to PvE'rs.

If you buy a 15k necro armor it should be unlocked for any PVP chars.
Same for my mesmer.. she bought normal old 1.5k Courtly set but I cant wear it on a pvp char. Not even another stype for normal armor.
Allow dye unlocks for pvp chars through faction and custom mixes. Even if it is 5k each dye (pref 1k).
Faction is good and all but I still don't want to play PvP chars because they look awful.

I think you should be able to unlock it through PvP most definately, but I think it should be very expensive, much more expensive than skills, kinda like in PvE. Getting skills doesn't take THAT much effort, but unlocking that 15k armor...especially now since the nerfs...much effort indeed. I'd think like 20,000 faction to unlock it.
But then they'd have to get rid of the faction limit.

The way I see it, the 15k armor is just a cool little thing that PvE players can get, and can set themselves apart from the normal PvP crowd in arenas, tournaments, and what have you. If you want the 15k armor on your PvP character that bad, then you can level a PvE character and get it, and show you're really serious about playing that class It should stay the way it is.

Why not just take your PvE charrs into the PvP arenas? Attribute refund things, and change skills. That should be it...No more refunds? Change secondary and change back.

15k sets have no pratical use, PvP already select the most powerful armor and they can even dye it for free.
I am total opposed to this, the 15k sets are a PvE reward and sould remain a 15k reward, if they are "unlocked" to PvP then when I get a 15 piece I want it unlocked for all my PvE characters to be "fair".

This thread speaks of using PvE armor? and dyes...?
This sounds to me like PvP people wanting access to things in PvE part of the game... what next... you want to be able to roam the cities? Run about the world?
No no no!
No 15K armor for you... no dyes... you want them? Play PvE. That's the way I see it.

The only thing you get is any attribute points you had in your previous secondary attributes, but you get absolutely no refund points.

I agree with this post, (minus the negativity toward pvpers) There needs to be something to differentiate between pve and pvp characters. I think the 15k armors the popular dyes do this very well.

NO!
This is not a fps, you don't get everything just given to you. People should be rewarded for dedicating time to the entire game, and not just specifics. If you want the good looking armor, you can work for it. If all you want to do is pvp, then all you get is the standard pvp equipment. While GW is not a game based on who ever spends the most time playing, their should still be some kind of novelty to those who do play alot. That is what the 15k armor and fissure armor are for.

Bumping this because I agree. I was going to make a post about it if there wasn't one already :P
After getting the new druid armor for my pve ranger I'd love to see the option of using it for my pvp rangers

AceSnyp3r, Drakron, RTSFirebat, EtrnalXellotath..
Great stuff you guys. I'm in total agreeance (did I just made that word up?) here.. I've spent hours and hours and HOURS slaving away at the killing fields to finally afford my set of 15k armor, and it's just simply shameful to see all these people wanting to be able to unlock by paying it off with sums of Faction; by playing PvP alone! Disgraceful!
The sets of 15k armor are designed to set apart those players who have achieved the pinnacle of greatness throughout the PvE storyline.. It's not just to "make my character look pretty", it's a symbol of achievement and ownerism.
And yes, I definitely made that last word up.

I would rather not see 15k armor sets as unlockable items for PvP only character unless the PvP players go through similar difficulties I did to acquire the money and materials.
Before someone says something like I just don't want PvP players to have the cool armors because I do PvE only, I will tell you all that I play PvE and PvP as well.
Someone said earlier on that 10k Faction would be a fair amount to spend on those armors. Well, it most certainly would NOT be fair. You can gather 10k Faction points real quick doing GvG and Tombs and if someone can't, that's just because this person needs to practice.
It takes days or weeks (depending on how good you are with making money) to come up with 75k for the armor sets and I am not even counting the materials required. On the other hand, even if you are not a top PvP player, you can gather 50k Faction in a few days.
I'm not saying that PvP players should not have the armors. All I am saying is that they should have to spend a lot of Faction points if they want them.

I think PvP'rs should be allowed to unlock armour after earning it in battle.
You can't take your PvP outside of arena or tombs, so I don't see the conflict with PvE players. Perhaps the armour could be unlocked after reaching a certain rank for example, and then by paying with faction.

I think that idea is pretty bad, being able to unlock the 15k armors through balthazar points would make them a hell lot more accessible (considering the fact that u get 250 faction after winning a gvg) and would piss off the PvErs that played through the whole game and worked hard for them. The armors give nothing extra except for the looks, you want them, well start PvE or stop complaining and focus on the gameplay rather than the looks of your armor.
ExplosiveBadger
I doubt sombody who made a pvp character hasn't already started an RPG character and played through the story line. If they're in it for only the PVP aspect of the game, they didn't get their moneys worth.
