Tyson.5160 Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 So if you just flat out buying the Mistforged skins, no legendary upgrade it’s 2620 tickets, just for the ascended armor and skin. The total for upgrading all of the ascended pieces further would be 6570 tickets, almost triple the amount of tickets. I would say it’s fairly reasonable for them to be upgraded to the flashier skin.

Xca.9721 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Whats the point of having legendary armor in pvp where stats are useless? Skins are all that matter in that gamemode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't going to have similar features. Flashy animations and the like. And while they are being enhanced, they are still going to be very similar to the base Glorious armor. > > > > > > Let me make sure I'm reading this right. So the Ascended 2.5 version is going to be similar to the base Glorious armor, and the legendary is going to be flashier and different? > > > > My understanding is the legendary component is an upgrade. So it would take the initial appearance of the Ardent Hero or Glorious Hero set. I would imagine this new 2.5 armor can also be used as a precursor as well for the upgrade, perhaps replacing the Glorious Hero. That is my understanding. As in it works just like the wvw legendary upgrade. > > This is the current plan. Is there also a plan if and how the new PVP legendary armor will be obtainable if I already have the current PVP legendary armor? I'm currently working on the legendary set (time gated by pvp league tickets) and wonder whether I shall wait until the improved looks become available. Even though there will be no dedicated pvp legendary skin by itself, I expect it to be an improved version of the current set comparable to the planned new ascended skin?

Tyson.5160 Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 I’m glad to see a quick tease for the Armor, super excited for the 13th, definitely going to pick up the chest piece for sure. The other pieces look good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did a whole new set for the PvE legendary armor, you didn't just take the illustrious set and added FX. Why PvP or WvW should be an exception? > > Honestly though, if you look at the PvE legendary armor, it looks like the Heavy set was the only one that they put effort into. I think most people don't like the look of the Medium and Light ones. It's honestly embarrassing that the most expensive sets of armor in the game looks like garbage. I love the light and Medium, my issue is that no one wants a first time raider with them... And PvE players think this community is toxic lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson.5160 Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 From what I saw in the screenshots the Armor looks rather good. I’m curious on the combat effect myself and will pick up the chest piece first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson.5160 Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 So I had a view at the new Mistforged Glorious Armor sets and I think they look great. Combat effect is similar to WvW, yet different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
