chrisjfinlay.5614 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 It occurred to me as I was playing earlier that I rarely see any other Sylvari using the cultural sets. Myself, I adore the Tier 3. So am I just the outlier, or am I not looking close enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alga.6498 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 You forgot a poll option with "_Yes, I use all of the tiers_" Specially for Sylvari, I only use their cultural armor along with TA dungeon armor since it fits them best. I find having a Sylvari character equipped with any other "humanoid" armor is a crime for fashion wars! The cultural are the best armor for each races, I love them and got all of them. They suits and fits best for their own armor. I just wish we had more tiers with more racial and cultural armor sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Blackfeather.6509 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I have a Sylvari using almost full t3, I think I still have one or two t2 Human on my main. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 A poll is unnecessary since players undoubtably mix and match. I use Norn T1 shoulders, T2 helm and T3 leggings here on my main and the Aristocrat cultural piece on the chest of my 2nd main ![](https://i.imgur.com/HZ5x4me.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/hlXUdBK.jpg "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraghound.5730 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I use them all depending on what look I'm wanting. But tier 3 is my most used I guess. I rarely do the full sets though, I love to mix and match when I'm not in the mood for a outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocki.4931 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Depends on what I'm going for. I have some of the stuff unlocked but not everything. Sylvari cultural and Norn are almost 100% unlucked but I don't get to use them that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Hide.6345 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Not really. I am not fond of the Sylvari armor. I prefer the look and VA of the Sylvari characters while I prefer armor of the humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nottsgman.8206 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I use all tiers of asura cultural (across all armor weights), bits and pieces of charr and tier 1 sylvari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khailyn.6248 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I use tier 3 on my human guardian, and tier 2 on human ranger, while I mix and match tier 2 and 3 on sylvari thief. Would use norn tier 3 if i still had a norn character. rest never interested me or fit the theme i was going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNecrosanct.4028 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I also use them all. Not for all my characters, though. But definitely for all my Sylvari. I don't like regular armor on Sylvari, so that leaves me with only 4 options (the 3 cultural tiers and the TA armor) For my Sylvari Renegade I mixed it up with the Shadow of the Dragon shoulder pieces. 3 of my Sylvari wear cultural armor while the 4th wears TA armor (still hoping for more Sylvari themed armor). I made a light armored Charr especially for the Archon armor (tier 2). My Charr warrior used to wear T3 for a long time, until I switched to the Mistward armor (and now Perfected Envoy armor). My Dragonhunter uses some T3 pieces. I've used Norn medium and heavy armor in the past, but that has been a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikolaiLev.8492 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I'd consider using pieces of them, but they're woefully expensive, even from the Skritt trader, for armor that's only rare and not exotic. Even if they were exotic, they're not stat-selectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devildoc.6721 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I use multiple tiers, and sometimes I mix in one piece here and there with pieces from other sources, with the exception of Charr. I don't really like any of the charr cultural armor except the heavy and I have no heavy wearing Charr, just medium. Unfortunately with the Charr, they made them kind of steampunk/technologically advanced.... but made their cultural armor look primitive. animal bones and rags just don't fit this steam and steel and guns aesthetic you have for the rest of the Charr. The shaman look is too much of a throwback. Asura pieces look good and can be mixed well with aetherblade, magitech, and inquest aesthetics. Sylvari look good and have possibilities in mixing with nightmare or mordrem/toxic alliance style aesthetics Norn is hit and miss, and I tend to like it better mixed and matched if I can find pieces that fit the motif. Currently my Fem Norn Guardian uses the winged headpiece, the heavenly bracers, no shoulders, and the tier 3 heavy boots, legs, and chest, and it looks good, for a Valkyrie look. I didn't really like the full stag set though. Human tier 3 on females looks so good as a set that I haven't ever really tried mixing and matching, because the sets look so good. The tier 2 and 1 aren't as exciting. But the Tier 3 just looks that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they were exotic, they're not stat-selectable. You just use the skin really, and really as soon as you buy it it's unlocked so you can sell it right back to the vendor for about 1/4 of what you paid for it, so it's basically 25% off, even more if you use the skritt trader.

Ayakaru.6583 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 What do i select if i use pieces? Like on Sylvari and Asura i certainly use some pieces, on sylvari more. But like on human and Norn almost none. And not all from one tier either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I only picked tier 3 for the purpose of showing that I believe that cultural armor sets are worth the expenses, but in truth **I don't care about the tier but the look alone**. Thus, I have armor sets of all tiers, depending on what I think fits the character best. But since all my armor is mix-n-match, I can't even say that I use full sets, including cultural armor. So, your poll is missing some options. ;) P.S. Also, "my race's [...]" sounds extremely limiting when you have 13 characters of all races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stone cold.8609 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 As an Asura player, I only use either cultural armor or the Exo Suit outfits on my characters. I voted T2 since that's what I'm using right now, but I have used all of the Tiers in the past and liked them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrlyFactor.8341 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I've used them in the past but as the story for my characters moves forward I find myself changing their appearance to other armors/skins/outfits. Many of my characters have armors/skins/outfits that are more fitting for the climates, terrains, and cultures found in PoF and LWS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
