I bet they look great on a charr. /s

Finally, decent light armor for males! I’m going to also pick up the Heavy one for my Norn since I’m tired of the CoF gear.

  Decent?? dude that armor sucks so much…i mean the only thing that is “decent” are those gloves the rest is just blergh
  - Dusk
    
    It sucks in your OPINION. Surprising fact, not everyone has the same one.
Mike Kelly

How bad do these look on Charr?
- trob
  
  Helm is a little awkward but not bad overall if you just turn that off
Deep Winter

The male heavy looks amazing, especially that helmet… but why is the female one completely different looking?!
- martin_pokorny
  
  So you can see those nice legs.
  - Deep Winter
    
    Like every other heavy armor available to female characters in this game. Gods forbid we actually have armor that looks like real armor.
    - Lemnzestmanatee
      
      Have you actually looked at the heavy armor for females in this game? The majority of it is normal plate/chainmail that covers everything. It just so happens that a lot of people don’t choose to use those. But it doesn’t mean that they aren’t available.
      - Raelynae
        
        Most of the female heavy armors are ridiculous and are only modeled to be “sexy”. There are like 3 normal ones and they’re for low to mid level game. I’d love to have one that actually looks cool for a change.

        go here ” http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Human_female_heavy_armo r” and tell me that most heavy armor “are only modeled to be sexy”. If you genuinely believe most these armor are “sexy” you are either a) not being honest with yourself or b) do not have a clear understanding of what “sexy” is supposed to mean. Please honestly tell me AC, CM, TA, sorrows embrace, COF, crucible, HotW, Arah, are sexy so i can type LOL in capital letters. Hey guess what, that is 8 out of 8 dungeon armors that are NOT sexy… i could go on with similar explanation for the rest of the sets. The only sets you can make the “sexy” argument for are glad, barbaric, and named. Btw sexy =/= awesome but gw2 heavies are really the furthest thing from …SMH

        Again, I have no idea what you are looking at. Check this link out. You can click on every armor set and see what they look like.

        And there are plenty of heavy armors that cover everything and look good. Two of my favorites are the primeval armor set and the T3 human cultural.
martin_pokorny

Not bad… but not awesome either. Best gem heavy armor skin is still Brahams, if I don´t count Primeval.
- Cyzt
  
  Not everyone whants to look Nordish you know?
  - martin_pokorny
    
    I know, but comments are usually used to post your own opinions, you know? 🙂

Male heavy armor look really nice, n bout the others? hmm well…. sorry….
Lucas

Light Male armor is missing boots on that picture 🙂 still a great job Dulfy
Ew

They really need to make light armor with pants and medium armor without a longcoat…
Drekoseko

Can you use a single piece of the set? And can you buy a single piece?
- Braghez
  
  You can use a single piece, but have to buy the whole set.
  - Drekoseko
    
    Well that sux 😀
Perry Su

heavy armor always look cooler on male than female…imma go do some SRS with my guardian ;_;
- Gollgagh
  
  I feel you 100%, mate; this makes me so sad. :C
Heretiko

I’m in love with the heavy armor. But i’ve got a charr warrior. I definitely want to change to human. GIEF RACE CHANGE NAO!
meeee

oh, again iam happy that that armor doesnt look better than my current, i´ll spare gold 🙂
Cameron

Happy they avoided the trench coat look on the medium armors.
- tony
  
  indeed. As a thief, I agree.
- Perry Su
  
  Thought trench coat fit engineer perfectly…well the mini skirt is even better 😀
Solus

yay more pieces to mix match
Gragx

I’m hoping there will someday again be interesting armor availavble after succeeding in challenging content. Just buying it is kind of… meh
someon

um… Can I request other normal male character?
uh…

Are we sure those heavy armor pictures are both actually correct? Normally they at least would have the same *helmet* across genders.
- Dulfy
  
  Yes they are correct
shujin51

female heavy= super crappy style
male heavy= super stylish -.-
We can see that they definetly want to make money by getting us buy gender changes. Just stupid cause not everybody will like to have a male char
- Shifted
  
  Other than the helmet, I actually like the female heavy more.
  Medium is pure crap, and light female is great, though not fitting any of my character designs.
Mesket

Male heavy is a generic armor. You can get the same look with tiny little variations with what we had already. It says NOTHING.

Female Heavy is a bit better but still has no taste.

Medium sucks.. for both… is like a lvl 20 armor.

Female light armor is great. The one I really like, it is unique and original.

Male light; wth? when did the circus arrive? why couldn’t it be like the female?
- BlkPrince
  
  it looks better for humans than norns on males
ThatGuyAgain

And again, human medium armor wearers get shafted. Such a great job with the original Krytan armor and then…it’s just downhill from there. I smell a plot against Thieves…first the silly sword…now this? /sadface
hurg

Getting pretty tired of the “LITERALLY EVERY FEMALE ARMOR HAS TO SHOW SKIN” rule.
- durg
  
  I think the light armor is a nice exception here.
- azurefiction
  
  See, I am a girl and I am a little miffed when it comes to female sylvari and medium armors and the lack of skin. Not that I all ways want to run around in something skimpy, but, hey, I play with my husband and sometimes I want something that makes him go “Oh, yeah, I DO like that character model.”
  - azurefiction
    
    … sigh, I take it back. Medium armor looks bad, bad, bad on my sylvari. My face, it is sad.
- bleidd
  
  its just sad realy. I like skimpy sets for some of my female characters but not for all, not all the time. If a wanna see my guardianes full armored im forced to mix diffrent pieces and its still doesnt look perfect. One full plated set with place for boobs, and without this strange looking metal skirts its all im asking! 😀
Me, not you

With medium armor, you can have a Doctor Who Eye Patch. Worth it :p
By the way, this armors aren’t as good as the other available skins… That’s sad.
knave7

Heavy armor on male reminds me of Lann’s armor from Vindictus…and now that I think about it, the female one reminds me of Fiona’s…

why does the Charr character always lose their horns when wearing a heavy helm? So Stupid!
Cayla

Anyone got a screenshot of female medium on a norn?
- sabreene
  
  I don’t have a screenshot atm, but was disappointed to see the boots are only knee-high on the norn for medium armor, instead of being taller like on the human 🙁
digi_owl

The sylvari shoulder pads strikes again…

You should post a picture of the medium armor on a norn female, since the boots actually look totally different on them.

Meh, I’ll buy a cash shop armor when they make me able to add it to the achievements panel skin-bank. The idea of having to – one day – destroy Ascended armor just to transfer a skin I paid money for don’t sit well with me.

On another note, that heavy armor looks amazing for human males. The boots especially. Nice and stylish.
Filippo Chinello

Much better now 🙂
- Iris Nguyen
  
  It is lovely. Being properly dyed does make a difference. These armors are never as ugly as people have described.
- RogerDAce
  
  Could you please let us know what dyes have you used in this plz?
- RogerDAce
  
  What’s the weapon name too? It looks great with the armor?
  - Filippo Chinello
    
    Weapon: Zodiac Greatsword – [&AgEnrwAA]
    Dye: Metal > Celestial // Leather > Deep Glacial Sky // Decorations > Shiver Sky
Ali

Anyone know the dye job of the last of the heavy male human or char? Would really appreciate it thanks in advance
- RogerDAce
  
  I would like to know as well. That armor looks cool with those dyes

This maybe just mere speculation, but do these new armor skins indicate that there will be a new story character or villain in the upcoming Living Story series?

Not counting the Primeval, Krytan, and Profane armor sets, the list of gem store armor skins connected to the past and current Living Story is as follows:
1) Aetherblade Light Armor Skin (based on Aetherblade minion)
2) Aetherblade Medium Armor Skin (based on Aetherblade minion)
3) Aetherblade Heavy Armor Skin (based on Aetherblade minion)
4) Phoenix Light Armor Skin (Kasmeer Meade’s armor skin)
5) Magitech Medium Armor Skin (Scarlet Briar’s armor skin)
6) Braham’s Heavy Armor Skin (Braham Eirsson’s armor skin)
7) Trickster Armor skin (Marjory Delaqua’s armor skin)

If this trend continues, then to whom are the Viper and Phalanx armor skins attributed to? Furthermore, anyone know what armor skin is Rox Whetstone using?
Plume

Has somene tried the phalanx armor on a male sylvari ? When I do a preview, the soulder are HUGE. I mean, if you compare the human’s shoulder to the sylvari’s, it seems something is wrong. is it just the preview or does the shoulder really are that big on a sylvari ?
