We have 3 sets there, and you require the 1st to be able to buy the 2nd and that one to by the 3rd (coupled with some high levels), the very first is received from reward tracks, where the others are bought, and both the 2nd and 3rd are upgradable to legendary. > > I'm kinda working on my pvp legendary armor, and i want to get this new set when its out to wear as my legendary, will i also require to have unlocked the other skins? I mean, we dont need glorious to be able to buy ardent as of now, and that "original" you're saying is the glorious or the ardent? Since in wvw we have more or less an indirect upgrade 1st>2nd>3rd, it'd be odd to have pvp be 1st>3rd. > > (if u cant/dont know the answer its fine) Current plan is that you'll need ardent to get the upgraded version of ardent. We're also planning to have a tournament version that you can get for placing 1-4 in the monthly AT. I'm planning to make them upgradeable to legendary using the same type of recipe the ardent current uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithranArkanere.8957 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Do not forget: * Rent-a-mount on citadels, bases and sentries. Pay 5 badges of honor, get a mount for 5 mins with no jumping capabilities and no engage skill that lets you catch up with faraway friends in the map, but that has reduced defense vs the Invader teams. So you can run past hostile wildlife, but any player or NPC of the enemy teams can force you to dismount in one hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe.1807 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I dont get it...why WvW and sPvP cant have legendary armor skins? Not talking about the stats and the tier, talking about the same skin from Raids...requires as much if not more effort than the PvE version, and yet, its a normal skin...makes no sense for me, its just cause PvE Raid players would rage on the foruns or something?

I´ve stolen this idea from another thread, but in my opinion it would be cool if there was a possiblity to increase the inventory space with grinding pvp and not being forced to grind pve .(just make them expensive enough, so that not everybody just farms them in pvp and the pve-players complain about being bullied). > > We're not opposed to this, with proper pricing & time commitment.

It has being bothering me, as if some one at Anet has something against implementing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because when Anet created the PvE legendary skins they by their own words ended up committing way more resources and time on those skins than they intended to. Do recall that the PvE legendary skins where supposed to be released with raids, yet ended up being released over a year later because of how much of a resource drain the creation of those skins turned out to be.

I should hope it's something they will address eventually, like they are already working on PvP legendary armor skins. It seems that due to lack of time and resources they pushed out the functionality of legendary armor so that at least PvP WvW players could acquire the functional aspect.

Not talking about making new ones, saying using the exact same from the Raids...the game its about skins, giving WvW and sPvP players only the legendary tier quality to the gear dosent feel right, they allready needs as much if not more effort to be made, and the challenge thing aint a good argument, nobody gonna say that fighting actual players is easier than a scripted AI(or atleast shouldnt be the case lol) > @"ImperialWL.7138" said: > > @"Felipe.1807" said: > > I dont get it...why WvW and sPvP cant have legendary armor skins?

No, they aint working on new skins for sPvP, let alone a legendary one like from Raids, they doing a simple retexture...its probably gonna have the visual progression that Triumphant armor from WvW have.

Yes, I know. I want a completely new skin too. I'm hoping we can make that happen, but it's a long ways out. > > > > That sounds rather vague.

Sorry for bringing this up again. But I am one of those waiting for that new PvP legendary set. And from what I read you plan to give us another more flashy version of the existing Ardent one. Well with all due respect that doesn't make any difference. I would prefer to wait and get something that justifies the legendary title rather than a reskin. Thanks.

I always thought 10k wins was a bit excessive.....I've been playing since launch and I have a bit over half that. At this rate gw3 will be out before I ever finish the last tiers lol. PLEASE MAN! PLEASE change it! 2k wins would be a nice modest requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
