Dragonguard Berserker Armor Outfit Style

The Dragonguard Berserker Armor outfit style is a unique armor that gives those dedicated to PVP a new look that is solely acquired through PVP activity.

Your chance to obtain style pages will work similarly to the Nibenese Court Wizard style pages. Having a higher Tel Var Stone multiplier increases your chances of obtaining one of these new style pages. You can also purchase some pieces from associated Tel Var Merchants when you are at least Alliance Rank 20. These pieces will not be tradeable.
