Before anyone asks, yes, I'm bragging

Anyway, I recently finished the game with my fourth character, and didn't have many things left to do, so I thought, why not buy every armor I like the look of? Unfortunately, none of the fissure armor is what i'm looking for, so I'm stuck with the sets from Granite Citadel & Marhan's Grotto. Still, it did take me a while to get all the sets that I wanted. Without further ado, in no particular order:

[Granite Citadel] Ascetic Chest & Foot, Judge Leg & Hand - dyed Black-Red

[Granite Citadel] Hydromancer - dyed Silver

That's it. Hope you enjoyed the show. Time for me to do some infuse runs (four sets are already infused, the other four are new), too bad those armors don't come fully infused.

I hope ANet adds something else besides Fissure Armor - or add four different Designs for every profession.

And since we're already at it, I need another character slot, I really like the new (female) Druid's Armor (and I don't have a primary Ranger yet). So if anyone from ANet is reading this ...

Very nice, none.... but (and this is my opinion here), shouldn't the Aeromancer's armor be dyed a more bluish-silver?? The others were absolutely fabulous!!

Then they definitely weren't worth the material costs. 350 Bolts of Cloth - where exactly did they go?

I just tried that, but I think it looks too much like the original color. The problem is that you can't get rid of the purple reflections. If it's dyed blue/silver, the purple will be much more dominant, compared to orange. I originally wanted to give it a golden color, but after alot of experiments, I wasn't satisfied with what I could get, so I just went plain orange.

I still believe that it's the best looking armor, because it was possible to combine pieces from different armor sets (I even gave up Energy using the Judge set, but you can see more of the foot tattoos that way). Theoretically, you can do that with other sets as well, but no combination looks as great as this. Unfortunately, almost everyone uses it nowadays, so it's not that special anymore

My video card is/was broken, so the pictures don't do the armors full justice, especially the Hydromancer looks way better with post-processing effects enabled (alot shinier). Bought a new video card today, so maybe I will update some of the pics

Can anyone post shots of the 15k Necro Scar armor?
Ideally, I'd like to see the Fissure of Woe Necro Scars. Seems like that armor IS different from the one you can by after ascending. Seems to add +2 instead of +1 energy on some of the pieces.

honestly, getting four 15k armor is a lot easier than getting one fissure armor.

I hope they add additional designs, or anything else I can work for (e.g. Armors in Sorrow's Furnace/Grenth's Footprint *hint* *hint*), because right now I have nothing left to work for.

I agree, the Fissure armors don't look that awesome, but I'm sure you would rather have 4 Fissure armors then these armors

And the Female Monk Fissure armor is really great if you want Ascetic's, because I don't like to be nude al the time

I'm using the full 8K Ascetic's at the moment, because they look the best for the tattoos, and the Fissure armor is just too expensive..

I was so excited to hear about the fissure armor to be honest. I saved up so much money, and then the screens came in for Ele... and I was so sad

So, so sad.

I'd get it for my monk but it's sorta common, but I really like the fem monk and warrior armor.. I'm holding out now for the possible new armor in the summer update. I'm keeping my fingers crossed like everyone else hehe.

I REALLY NEED MORE CHARACTER CREATION SPACE!##!@

I simply do not want to buy more than one 15k set for each of my characters because I am already swamped with items :P NO ROOM!

Ah well.. maybe I'll get too bored and get fissure armor. I'd have to farm some ecto, as I don't have nearly enough atm

Ahhh well.

I don't really like the female ele fissure set. And I wanna know, what is the difference graphically in the cheap tat set and the $$ tat set? Can anyone post a side-by-side?
