warrior tattoo armor
Drake_Grievous
I think a warrior tattoo armor would be sweet. they could call it berserker armor or something like that

Sure, if it gives you an AL of 60 max... but then you could just play a caster anyway. Whats the point of this? Oo
Or is it the naked amazon warrior thingie again?

Gladiator's armor for the win?

thats basicly being a monk, as any tatoos would have a low armor rating

Yes, because fingerpainting your naked chest is going to stop an aataxe claw.

Well for the non-smarta$$ed posters - its obvious the tattoos for monks are imbued with some type of protection abilities, otherwise (like normal tats) you might as well be running around naked!
What's the problem with applying the same idea to another builds armour?? Sure knock the AL down a lil but add some boost to an attribute for balance. Not a bad idea on the surface but it does muddy the waters when you factor in that another class already uses this type of armour design.

I was thinking mabye a lower AC but you gain more adren or someting along those lines

or maybe tattoo just to distinguish our characters from the rest. just yesterday, i went to storage and saw this character standing next to me and we look very the same. red hair, same face, same complexion and the same silver platemail armor. the only difference is our cape.

I don't think Warrior would look likk Warriors with body armor.It is different with Monks and Necros as for the most part they are casters.

That's kind of a cool idea, having warrior tattoos/scars that give you more adrenaline when hit there.
Look at Conan, he kicked ass and only wore fur skinned jockey shorts.

I had the same idea of some type of "beserker" armor. I like the more adrenalin idea for the armor too.

No.
If you want tatoos, be a monk. If you want more energy for your warrior, get Gladiator's Armour. There's no way in hell a tatoo would stop a sword, arrow or anything of the sort.

when we see ppl w/ tattoos, kinda makes them look they are tough ppl (even chicks w/ tattoo looks tough and sexy
)in some cultures, it's their warriors who have a lot of tattoos as a badge of honor or whatever
if it didn't work b4, maybe the Devs can make it work. Anythings possible in this game

Aside from all the people concerned about the looks, I've always wanted more diversity in the armor selection. Some serious balancing should also be done with the armors, as there should never be 1 specific combination that's always better than the others, for instance, the popular warrior combo: +1 attribute hat, glad chest, glad pants, knights boots and stonefist gaunts/glad gloves.
With some balancing I'd like to see some diversity, and this tattoo idea for example wouldn't be bad, if lets say it only offered the basic 60 AL any caster would have, but offered an attack bonus of lets say, 1.5 per piece (maybe smaller bonuses on the hands/feet to satisfy the low hit percentage on them vs. the universal bonus they add, which should also count for all energy boosting pieces).
Sure, I throw ideas like the one above out when it's intention is just to look cooler, however I do see more diversity for the future if dmg adding armor was implemented, and what would hopefully result in a more strategic armor selection, rather than just thinking about defense vs. energy.

what does the tattoo do for the monk in this game? more energy or whatever, I don't have a monk character. Maybe the tattoo for the warrior will improve something. Does the monk's tattoo stop a sword, arrow or anything of the sort?
The same question applies to all.

Tattoos are stupid. I'de rather see them take out the monk ones than implement ones for the warrior. Besides, this is pointless; if you want to have 60+ AL 8+ Energy be a monk, warriors aren't made for energy exactly :/.

A) I think this is a good idea B) These smartass responses just make you look like dumbasses with no imagination. It's a game, lighten up.

Warriors is always on the front line. They are really helpless w/out the monk in fighting a heavy mob. a little improvement will help a lot for the warrior class. PLSSSS

All he said was that tattoos would be cool, and as much as I am against making suggestions based off of asthetic looks, it's not such a bad idea (not too original either). See my above post for more detail on how warrior tattoos could add more diversity to armor selection. Adrenalin boosting bonuses wouldn't be half bad either Jigs.

i dont really like the idea, but it could work something like this
Head: 70 AL, 10 (mabye 20) vs physical, plus one any att
Chest: 70 AL, +20% adrenaline on hit (like berserkers stance)
Waist: 70 AL, 10 vs physical
Legging: 70 AL, 10 vs physical
Boots: 70 AL, 10 vs physical
The above is basicly less protection, more adrenaline
Head: 70 AL, 10 (mabye 20) vs physical, plus one any att
Chest: 70 AL, +20% adrenaline on hit, energy recovery -1
Waist: 10 AL, 10 vs physical, 33% increased attaack Speed, energy recovery -1
Legging: 10 AL, 10 vs physical, 33% increased Movement speed, energy -20
Boots: 10 AL, 10 vs physical
Above is an inherent sprint and berskers stance, but you would have absolutly no energy (save for an offhand), this would be VERY powerful, and also VERY easy to shutdown

In real life (yeah, *gasp!* a world outside the game), tatoos/scars often make a person look "tougher." The same basic idea would work well for warriors. Perhaps an arm, leg, head design?

), 60 AL (nice, round, basic number that relates to the armor of a caster), and perhaps a small -5 energy, or possibly no energy buff/debuff at all, since the AL alone seems balanced enough. It's up to A.net to figure out the exact numbers and what bonuses they want, but I hope they're not fooling themselves into believing that the current options for armor are fine for a competetive environment.

come on people think about it who would you want to tangle with in r/l, a big ass biker dude or a guy loaded down with so much armor it takes him forever to hit. personally I would rather trip the armored guy and hit him on the ground.

Its a question about work to be put into and the use of this.
The huge amounts of work i do see. It asking atleast for a new set of textures and maybe models. However, the use is not what i see. When you want to play a berserker copy (TM) go and use Battle Rage or Berserker Stance. There's your fine bonus thingies.
If you want to look like an ape on Armageddon Streak go and use the 15 k Gladiator Set. If its for the naked thingie go Ranger/Warrior - female 15 k Druid Armor and use a close combat weapon. But why should people in their mind want to look like an ape? Its allready bad enough having those tatoos in the first place and being semi-forced to use them for energy. But seeing another Tatoo Addition for Warriors? Oh my god...
You want Tatoos? Sure thing, you can have those of the monks. Give the monks your gladiator Armor with added energy regen instead. I think that would look cool and stuff and.. whatever. Nonsense idea here and this thread is even more nonsense.

If they do make a tattoo armor for warriors, it should only be for W/Mo, W/N.. I don't think it should have to apply for any other class since they don't have tattoo armor.. Great suggestion anyhow!

This isn't a bad idea... Anything that adds to character diversity can only help....
as it stands right now at least in pvp warriors might as well be naked for all the good the higher armor does them if nobody hits them...
even if they allow at least just face tattos, if nothing more, I'm so sick of the brown hat to get +1 axe/sword/hammer =/ , same stats, hell I'll take the +20 armor vs physical off..
Although Chest/arm/face tattoos with like ascalon leggings/boots would look really awesome with a big 2 handed hammer.
Honestly even if it had the same stats as gladiators, I'd use it.

Example of the future-
SS Necro in ToA- Yo dude would you like to do a 2 man 55/SS of FoW?
You-GOD! IM A WARRIOR NOT A MONK! JUST CAUSE I HAVE TATOOS EVERYONE INVITES ME! STFU N00B!
SS Necro- Man you have temper problems...
You-WELL IM NOT A N00B WHO DOESNT F**KING BOTHER TO READ THE F**KING W/D ABOVE MY HEAD AND NOTICE THAT IM NOT BALD!

.....if we cared about reality wouldn't that 15k female druids armor have a slightly.... skimpier AL?
it's a game, accept it, move on, take a deep breath if you have to, but do realize that reality holds very little sway in the land of armor based on what we've already been handed.

ITs funny seeing so many saying that tatoos dont offer protection, warriors need armor, like this is real life. Why couldnt the Tatoo armor have 80 AL like all the others, THIS ISNT REAL ANYTHING GOES it would be cool to see it with a little less armor but with another buff like adren gain too. Not everyone would buy it jsut like not everyone buys Sunpear armor or Kurzick armor cause they dont like it and prefer something else.
I think the monk like tatoos on the warrior only wearing a buttflap would look kinda dumb but maybe just on his chest and arms and face. and wears pants(not big bulky ones cause it would look bad)
