TardiisBlu.8506 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 We need new cultural armor... it is only the 3 tiers from the original expansion and MAYBE a set from the original dungeons. Each new expansion could have a set of cultural armor somewhere or part of the story depending on the race you play and the area you're in. Cantha would've been amazing for asura or sylvari cultural armor with the cantha twist. It would have been stunning. Wizard sets that are varied for each race could look really amazing form this new expansion. I love the new armor sets that come out and they're all really well done, I just really think there needs to be another set of cultural armor somewhere along the way. 21 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okhu.7948 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I could get down with a Tier 4 cultural set. I could also get down with cultural mount skins. They kind of have a few sets of that already with the Shiverpeaks and Dynamics skins. But a Sylvari or Charr set could be pretty cool. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLadyOfTheRings.9148 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I agree! I would personally love to unlock new cultural armor sets (and other cultural items) by playing optional racial side-quests, that would explore bits of cultural lore that are not part of the main story (e.g., sylvari characters could learn what happened to Malick and whether there are more sylvari trees like the Pale Tree; charr characters could catch up with members of their warband; norn characters could help the havroun of their Spirit of the Wild; and so many more opportunities for interesting plots and associated rewards). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remus Darkblight.1673 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Unlikely to happen, why spend resources creating armour for small sections of the player base when you can create an outfit that is broadly the same for all races and whack it in the store for 1,800 gems as an "appearance package"? Any semblance of wanting to explore and expand cultural identities within the game have been long abandoned in favour of a homogenous experience. 1 2 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilcat.6817 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 But... WHY? One option is to make all cultural armour stat selectable, so it will work for all builds. After that... you can wear stat items, and then wardrobe to your desire look. And that could be done with any outfit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaken.6801 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I would love some cultural armor, that is available for all races. An armor from one race to another 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinurak.5307 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Then it wouldnt be cultural armor, now would it? I do support the idea of more cultural sets, give the races some unique armor sets. i love that 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they both share one set. Always hated that, plantish weapons for asura and geometric-plasma weapons for sylvari... why? I mean, they live both in maguuma jungle and they are neighbours, but in fact there are no other races more distant from each other then asura and sylvari, in cultural terms.

There is story overlap, as in Asura experimented on Sylvari, but that's not enough reason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anninke.7469 Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 They don't exatly share. The Asura have full 3 sets of weapons while the Sylvari miss one and get asuran as the first tier. I've been hating this for almost nine years 😅 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanBB.4268 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 If they make new armor skins, I'd rather any character could use them. They could still fit the culture they come from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that Sylvari armor is glowing in the same way your charater is. Imho it is the peak cultural armor & character co-design. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
