With helms instead of the elementalist-like gem they have. Since their armor seems to be old greece-schemed, it would be awesome to have Paragons wear helms, like Pericles' helm... They might be able to compete versus warriors armors, since everyone makes warriors to get a cool-looking armor...maybe people would have choice between paragon and warrior to have a awesome armor. IMO, the gem doesn't fit in the paragon's face...

And since Paragon has same armor (80) than warrior and is the only other class using adrenaline skills, I think it would be a nice thing to have a helm fiting the scheme and some evil looking armors... just my 2 bits!

I have never heard before of someone making a Warrior because they had cool armor. Most people don't make a class because of what armor they have either.

IMO, Warrior armor stinks.

i kinda agree, they don't work well with the gem, helms with wings ftW

Do you even know what regalia are?

Some Minas Tirith Honor Guard style winged helms would be pretty cool. I loved how the Knight's helm resembles them, but was saddened that only the female version has them (my warrior is male).

I just want my paragon to wear pants!

Opeth11 · Aug 09, 2006, 03:25 AM // 03:25

Or longer shorts just for the hell of it.

wait all we seen is 3 styles, im sure theres gonna be tons of other looks as well.

dreamhunk · Aug 09, 2006, 06:25 AM // 06:25

I would say no! it should be different with a little afica in the head peace. I am sure there is head peace idea anet can use. Just as long as it looks cool!

Meh, I play this game for fun, and part of the fun is making cool (or sexy) characters.

Looks play a huge part in that, or else, no one would have 15K armor.

I agree, Paragon should have a cool helmet (Greek, fantasy, whatever)

I too have 15k armor because it looks cool, but you can't just complain a Paragon looks crummy because it doesn't have a helmet. Plus, we have only seen three choices and there will be alot more so don't complain like everyone else is about Nightfall when it isn't even released yet. Complain afterwards.

Actually, we can just complain about it. In-fact now IS the time to complain about it. What good will complaining about it do once its all set and done?

I think Anet still hasn't finalized all the armors yet, so they could still change it now. Personally I'm in favor of a more Greek looking helm with wings on it. Maybe the one Nevin posted except with no mohawk and little wings on the side instead.

The Paragon Male needs pants, and thats all I have to say on the subject.

Mordakai · Aug 09, 2006, 05:35 PM // 17:35

They're Angels, they don't need pants.

Seriously, I don't mind the Roman-esque look. Maybe I'll dye mine Plaid and make a Scottish Highlander....

LifeInfusion · Aug 09, 2006, 05:35 PM // 17:35

They need pants more than they need a helm. Seriously. What's with the short-shorts and skirts on male characters.

They probably reskinned Male Rt armor, but that's done already...that's why I'm never going to make a male Rt...

thedeadwalk! · Aug 09, 2006, 05:46 PM // 17:46

If there was a Scotish themed Guild Wars would people complain about fighters wearing kilts? If the Paragon's armor was more "African" (and less Romanesque) they'd be wearing less than they are now, or at least something similar to the Dervish's.

Moving back to the original topic.

I do wish the regalia were larger, more substantial symbols of the Paragon's status, but, as said before, we have only seen a few options. It's still nothing that'd drive me away from using a Paragon.

I agree it would be nice to get a helmet of some kind, but overall I like the armor. I just hope I will be able to get some similar armor for my Warrior. I really like the look of the white and gold armor.

Helmets FTW!
