Thread: PvMP Armor and Rise of Isenguard

I'm not sure if it's been brought up, but when the updated PvMP armor comes out, could you give us at least a better looking set appearance than the old Helegrod style? I'm not necessarily asking for new armor, but how about recycling a more attractive set, like the Rift gear?

Pyjama style?

The rift gear was pretty much the best looking gear for every class.

I still think some of the Rift armor is the coolest in the game, but I do agree there should be some new armor. I'm getting really annoyed of all the copies of armor sets. It's getting old now.

Maybe cycle in the Vile Maw cosmetics instead. SKIRTS FOR EVERYONE!

Rift armor best looking gear ever. Anything Moria and up looks ugly, I'm forced to play creep because I don't want to be seen running around with ugly gear in the moors.

Light Rift armor looked terrible. Heavy Rift armor looked like bad rubber costumes out of a DC movie. Medium armor looked decent at best.

Pretty much all the armor in this game looks awful and I have no faith in anything decent ever being added. They may as well just keep recycling the same old stuff.

I personally like very much the Barad Guldur armour sets, looks nice even for Light Armour. Of course BG set as well as DN set are of Elvish design, very ornamental and beautiful. What we can expect from the sets coming with Isengard, is that they're most likely design of Man, a bit more rough in shapes than Elf armours.

Non-dyed BG set for Guardian looks somewhat weird, but I dyed my Guard's set white and it looks cool!



What I've noticed, is that armour design of this game is pretty close to that of the movie. Only thing what I have been disappointed about is the armour and uniform of guards & soldiers of Gondor. That blue/white striped tunics are just... NOT that sort of Middle-Earth style I have been expecting it to be. And don't even mention the horse...

Agreed, but i HATED the hunter set, the star on the front made it look like it was created by a primary school student. The one cosmetic set i loved was the PvP set inbetween the helle carbon copies, the options have been removed for quite a while thou, and no1 would have got them...

my first toon was a guardian... got him full Rift. Never seen a better set of armor imo than it. these moors sets have been pretty bleak in terms of cosmetic apprearance. Atleast the stats on some pieces have been nice.

For the love of god please don't recycle the helegrod gear for THE FIFTH TIME. I'm a big fan of the rift cosmetic, if that can be done. I'd even take the OD cosmetic over Helegrod again... At least the burglar set looks awesome.
