Glorious Hero's armor does not count as precursor to Mistforged Glorious Hero's?

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?

Probably an oversight. If your talking about the tournament skin.

Kinda feel like Mistforged Glorious may as well be legendary. 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.

If some1 posses legendary armor from pvp , he will get new skin too or not ?

No

Nah, you have to craft the skin. Which you would have to do anyways to make it Legendary.

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

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?

Ardent is good if you don't want it to be so shiny.

here is a question i have legendary ardent is there a way to upgrade it to mistforge version? if not eh oh well next set

@Ben Phongluangtham.1065 said: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.

Could you please share an ETA with us for this? Thanks.

@Ben Phongluangtham.1065 said:You have to have unlocked the ardent glorious skin before you can purchase the mistforged glorious hero skin.

Thank you for clarifying. I didn't know o/Although i had bought a full set of Ardent armor last season. And I'm way over rank 100, I can't unlock the Mistforged for some reasons. Is it a bug or something?

@Ben Phongluangtham.1065 said:Hmm, having the corresponding ardent skin and level 100 are the only requirements, outside of having the currency to buy them.

Mine is locked out. I'll send a support ticket tonight if it's still locked out. Maybe you guys can dig deeper if it's a bug.

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 unlockthe PvE legendary skin as well.

Your right the cost of upgrading is quite substantial in ascended shards as well as locked behind 3 seasons worth of tickets.

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.

Does this only work for the ascended ardent armor, or does the exotic version also count?

Can confirm this is fixed. Thanks for the super fast response Ben.
