TheBravery.9615 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018   That wasn't so hard was it? Keep practicing at designing armor without leg drapes and you guys will achieve something beautiful ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phs.6089 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 IIRC there was big noise about sexualization of armor in gw2. hence buttcups and modesty straps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was become they wanted to preserve the "silhouette" for each profession (that somehow resembles a a Disney princess for everyone) Not everyone wants to wear a dress to combat.

Yeah if only there was a way to design non-sexualized armor without buttcapes. Damn. Well technology isn't there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well technology isn't there yet. attaching buttcapes and stripes to ready models was an easy solution i guess. If you check couple of old designed armor don't have those. From the top of my head Krytan(medium) for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plautze.6290 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Oh mah gaaaawd! Those armor sets look amazing! They somehow flash me more than the legendary armor sets do... which is why I'll never even try to get them. Hopefully, they are not locked behind epic amounts of mats and completing undoable metas like Serpent's Ire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that's the case in a world where the Profane amor set exists. Or the human tier 3 medium armor on females. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair it's going to be damn difficult to design a future armor set looking *worse* than the legendary ones. They're a case study in ugly armor design :pensive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vavume.8065 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm just wondering at what stage of development are these upgradeable armors shown in the screenshots above? I assume they are made in tiers, and I'm hoping this is not the final tier, since the medium helm looks like something you start the game with, and all of the armors look very basic/generic. If they upgrade 2-3 times and the completed result is what is show above I will be disappointed. TLDR : I hope the screenshots are of the base model armor not the final tier.

Etria.3642 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I like them very much. No floating without wind skirts buttcapes or other nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the final models don't become as overdesigned as most armor in this game. I know my hope is vain, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I like them. :) I'm not sure how many pieces I'll actually use as I like a lot of the existing armour too, but it's nice to have more choices and especially ones that don't look like the ones we've already got. Very happy about trousers for light armoured female characters especially, until now we've had precisely 1 option which doesn't also include some sort of skirt.

I'm going to guess we won't be able to upgrade it this episode. So this should be the "T1" version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenon.4537 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Jokes on you guys. These screen shots are just the tier 1 armor. The tier 2 will have butt capes, and the tier 3 with have double butt capes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
