Why must male Glad armor be green? - Guild Wars Forums

Savio · Sep 06, 2005, 08:43 PM // 20:43

The more I run around, the more I see it: male Gladiator's armor dyed green. I thought I was being original when I dyed mine, but apparently not. So, questions:

1. Why green?

2. What's a better color for my 15k Glad?

Night Daftshadow · Sep 06, 2005, 08:46 PM // 20:46

Black. since poor warriors cant afford them

Savio · Sep 06, 2005, 08:55 PM // 20:55

Poor warriors can't afford black, but enough noob warriors can?

Anyhow, any better colors? Or at least an answer to my question?

Ranger Li · Sep 06, 2005, 09:04 PM // 21:04

Night thats hardly true...

IMO Never Dye your armor just a plain color mixa round for your own color, like try mixing black+green+Blue for a deep turquoise type color, just mix around till u find a nice color and then go with it

Actually you will find that a number of dye combinations have a funny effect on the armor, e.g. you dye it [add the dye of your choice here] and you get [add a dye here that has nothing to do with your chosen dye whatsoever].

As green in gives you green out, it's naturally becoming a more favored dye for warriors.

my fem warrior has gladiator shirt and leggings knights boots and stonefist gauntlets (sounds like it clashes but it's a good mix) i dyed the set dark pink (orange + purple).

Divine Elemental · Sep 06, 2005, 10:02 PM // 22:02

Savio · Sep 07, 2005, 08:17 AM // 08:17

I just saw a female Glad with the dreaded green! Did I accidentallly join some Warrior cult?! I WANT ANSWERS!

Mr Jazzy · Sep 07, 2005, 08:19 AM // 08:19

i dyed mine purple and i use a plain colored mursaat hammer. looks bomb

CeLL · Sep 07, 2005, 09:37 AM // 09:37

I dyed my green because of a Necro secondary

Didnt know most of them are green

corax5 · Sep 07, 2005, 12:50 PM // 12:50

I remember I used to see most warriors with blue armor, I thought it looked absolutly pants yet there were so many warrior with blue armor, usually ringmail.

Jamski · Sep 07, 2005, 12:52 PM // 12:52

Ringmail dyes blue really nicely though! The Collector Ringmail is great just to pose about in. Ok its crappy armour, but hey.

Gustav Gloomp · Sep 07, 2005, 12:54 PM // 12:54

i use to see heaps of people in red or orange knights armor. now i dont see anyone in knights armor, which i reckon is one of the best looking armor in the game for warrriors

Mr Zun · Sep 07, 2005, 12:54 PM // 12:54

Best thing to do i think is like cell did go with your secondary class color.

Seams less common.

hotspur · Sep 07, 2005, 01:40 PM // 13:40

Dragon Armor dyed green = awsome. Also my guild has a green cape which helps the overall look.

DeLuux · Sep 07, 2005, 06:09 PM // 18:09

I have a dark-skinned Warrior with blue-dyed Gladiators armor.. looks cool

nailz · Sep 07, 2005, 06:13 PM // 18:13

Green Armor has a higher Elemental AL

Shmash Witdaclub · Sep 07, 2005, 07:31 PM // 19:31

I gave my warrior a red chest + pants + helm with a rusty orange for both legs + gloves. looks nice, kinda like he has seen some action.

theVariable · Sep 07, 2005, 07:56 PM // 19:56

I do a copper mix on my 15k Gladiator armor, but I won't give out the mix because it's unique :P

I liked plain orange on my Knights armor (gives an aged copper look), but in some areas, the lighting makes it look really bad...
