There is no difference in the armour other than the asthetics, they are the same specs, it's just that the 15k armour costs alot more than the armour at droknars, the armour at granite or mahrans will cost you best part of 500 plat, and the fissure armour upwards of 1000plat.

You can get some kinds at granite and the other types at mahrans

A waste of gold in my opinion........

boontheloon - 15K gold per piece plus materials

If you buy all/most of the materials needed it can easily cost you 500K gold or something rediculious like that.

cannonfodder - your opinion. People who get the 15K armor's are getting it because they like the "look" of the armor's. They have the same stats, but have better looks than the dull and boring 1.5K armor's.. If you don't like it, no one is forcing you to get it...

A NERD1989 - to see the full selection of 15K armor's (excluding FoW armor) you need both Marhan's Ghrotto and Granite Citadel. They both sell 15K armor's, but the armor's they offer are different.

You should note that the stats on these armor's is the exact same stats as the 1.5K armor you get at the forge, however they have an improved "look". Thats why people buy them, not for better stats but because they look nicer/better.

wtf... u ppl have obviously been misinformed, the fissure armour costs 500k +the materials, yes, i agree, cos ectos n shards r like 8 n 3k each, but the marhans and granite 15k armour does NOT cost 500k, the materials they use r the same as any other armour, ie. cloth, silk, iron, etc. the most expensive 15k armour (non-fissure) is the granite 15k war platemail cos all of the deldrimor steel, costs around 30k to get 40 deldrimor steel ignots. mostly, all the other 15k sets cost 3-5k max for all the materials

fissure armour is also only for looks, anet does this to balance pvp and pve
in terms of looks
necro fissure armour=bada$$
ranger fissure= semi-bada$$
mesmer fissure=semi-bada$$
female ele fissure= ewww....
male ele fissure= average
monk fissure= bada$$
male war fissure= ewww....the leg piece looks sooooo gay...
female fisure armour= teh ub3r 1337
if u want better descriptions than ive given u (which is probably the case) go to the screenshots forum and ull prolly find all the fissure armours there

Ok, maybe 500k was a an exaggeration, pyromancers armour for my Ele will cost 65.250g exactly and that consists of 60k for the armour, 4.9k for 350 bolts of cloth and 350g for 35 shells, and thats from Granite.

*hangs head in shame* ok, so 500K was a way over-exageration. My apologies on that. Although if you factor in the cost of buying armor elsewhere (like say Ascalon, Amnoon Oasis & Droknar Forge) to the cost of Ghrotto/Citadel armor then 500K isn't that far off really (well ok maybe it is... LOL)

Here's another thing (a serious issue here) - the person stating 500K might have been talking about if you buy all the 15K armor's. In which case, depending on your profession then it could easily take ~500K to buy.

Lets see.. For a warrior (buying all materials from merchants) it will cost 360K gold (at current merchant prices). Hmm, even if you buy the whole lot 500K is still way off unless you are unluck (and stupid) and buy from the merchants when their prices are rediculiously high...)

course, if you then add the cost of runes for each set of armor.. depending on rune costs and what runes your after it could easily cost over 500K for the whole set.. 112,500 gold per set of armor if you buy minor Runes of Strength, Tactis and Axe mastery with Superior Vigor & Superior Absorbtion.. Or save yourself some gold and only go Major vigor & Absorbtion.. for an added cost of 7,780 per armor.. thats 31,120 over-all so going only major abs/vig won't get you to 500K, but moment you use 1 or both of them you get there or go beyond it (depends on which you get).

total cost of getting all 4 sets of 15K armor for a warrior, buying all materials @ current prices, with the more expensive setup, again buying at current prices, 810,000 gold. So eat that! 500K was understating the total cost!

Eh, Fissure armor for male Warriors is kinda ugly, except for the helm, and that's not worth it for the choices you have. Actually all male Warrior armor is pretty ugly compared to other professions' armor choices. Which class are you referring to A NERD1989?
