Annihilator and Conqueror Armor Sets Updated
By wardojo / October 11th, 2008 /
Most of us are not yet high enough level to have many pieces of the Annihilator or Conqueror armor sets, but it’s important to keep up with changes to the sets as at some point you will be wearing at least a few pieces of this armor:
“High level encounter and armor set adjustments
As a result of the changes we’ve made, Fortress Lords and contested capital city guards will now be even more challenging then they were previously. In order to help players survive these perilous encounters, we have made the following adjustments to two of the game’s high-level armor sets.
Based on our observations and your feedback, we have determined that Fortress Lords and contested capital city guards are not providing the intended level of challenge. These enemies are among the most dangerous in the game, and battles against these deadly adversaries should be nothing short of epic.
We have updated the Annihilator and Conqueror armor sets (acquired through a variety of high level RvR0 to include Wards, in order to maintain parity with PvE Armor Sets.
The Annihilator set now includes the same Ward as that offered by the Bastion Stair’s Bloodlord set.
The Conqueror set now includes the same Ward as that offered by the City Dungeon Sentinel set.
Players who equip pieces from the Annihilator and Conqueror armor sets will be better-equipped to challenge the Fortress Lords and contested city guards. The more pieces equipped, the better defended players will be against the deadly adversaries.”
So it sounds like whether you take the PvE road to get your gear or the RvR road to get your gear, the gear will be comparable across the board. It’s up to you to decide which set to go for and which path to take to get it.
