meri.9187 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Not sure if this is a bug, but it appears you can only buy Mistforged Glorious Hero's armor when you have the Ardent Glorious skin- the Glorious Hero's skin doesn't count even though it shares a name. Was this intended or just an oversight since the Glorious Hero's armor is much rarer than Ardent Glorious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably an oversight. If your talking about the tournament skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted November 13, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted November 13, 2018 Yeah, that's an oversight. We'll get that changed. As well as add a version of the chest that doesn't have the back FX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crunch Bars.4309 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Kinda feel like Mistforged Glorious may as well be legendary. Quite a lot of ascended glory shards. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a lot of ascended glory shards. :/ Way less then the actual legendary upgrade process though, it’s the same amount of shards as the ardent set.

Nah, you have to craft the skin. Which you would have to do anyways to make it Legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Safandula.8723 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 i play mainly wvw, and from about 9 mounths i made 500 lvl there. on pvp i played only occasionally and after i made ascendence i stopped playing spvp. now im around 50 lvl. If i still play wvw in the same amount ill get shiny backpack in about 3 years, if ill start grinding pvp now it will be much much easier. is it any intended? i feel the big disproportion between the shiny armor reward from these 2 modes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hex.2579 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It feels weird that they don't remove the ardent glorious armor. Since the Mistforged ones look much better, more like an upgrade from ardent set. I mean who would buy the old armor anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have unlocked the ardent glorious skin before you can purchase the mistforged glorious hero skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making the glorious hero armor work as a condition for purchasing will come in our next full release. (Sometime in the next few weeks.) Adding the alternate chest armor without the FX will take a little bit longer, but I don't have an ETA yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meen, it's the same cost for Ardent, BUT you have to have already purchased ardent anyway, so it's cumulative cost. I'm proposing that it either be legendary OR when we craft legendary armor from the PvP stuff, we unlock the PvE legendary skin as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson.5160 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Your right the cost of upgrading is quite substantial in ascended shards as well as locked behind 3 seasons worth of tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once i obtain the ardent armor the mistforged is still locked. I have to go to the character select screen then back into the game to have access to the mistfordge after i have bought the ardent correspondent.

ScottBroChill.3254 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Does this only work for the ascended ardent armor, or does the exotic version also count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted November 28, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted November 28, 2018 Just a summary/clarification. Tier 1: Glorious Armor - Exotic, earned from reward tracks. Not required for anything. Tier 2: Ardent Glorious - Ascended, purchased with PvP League Currency. Can buy just the skin. Can be upgraded to a legendary version with the same skin Tier 2: Glorious Hero - Ascended, purchased using PvP Tournament Vouchers or by having participated in some old PvP events. Can be upgraded to a legendary version with the same skin Tier 3: Mistforged Glorious Hero - Ascended, purchased using PvP League Currency or PvP Tournament Vouchers. Purchasing it through the league armor vendor requires you to be PvP rank 100 and have unlocked either the Ardent Glorious or Glorious Hero skin. So if you want the light Mistforged Glorious Hero helmet, you'll need to have unlocked either the Ardent Glorious light helm or the Glorious Hero light helm along with being rank 100. Can be upgraded to legendary version with the same skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
