Shadowforged Armor

Shadowforged are currently the rarest/strongest armors, overtaking Dragonforged Armor on February 25th, 2016. Shadowforged armors, unlike Dragonforged, can be crafted. To craft a Shadowforged armor, you must collect 12 of each of their respective crafting materials. In addition, after upgrading your armor to level 35 (and collecting 12 more of the same crafting materials), you can now craft the Plus version of the armor.

There were initially only a few of these armors available (as of April 24th, 2016, there were only 8), however there are now (as of mid-July, 2016) more than 20 available. Shadowforged Armor was implemented during player appreciation month. The resources to make them can be collected from Guild Wars, Raid bosses, Pet Leaderboards, and Chance Chests.

Shadowforged armors, like Epic armors, max at level 99. However, they differ from their predecessors in that they have "Ascension" levels. Ascension can be achieved after reaching level 99. Ascension upgrades the abilities of the armor, massively increasing the stats. Ascension requires silver coins, and there are a total of 10 Ascension levels. The amount of Silver Coins differs per level. The cost of every Ascension level, per level, not cumulative, is 1,2,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,and 6, adding up to 32 Silver Coins total. Shadowforged=
