Eh? That's exactly what it would look like, unless you mean COMPLETELY white and glowing.

Yes! I can easily buy the gloves for 75 ectos without me saying I have no life. If you have been playing this game for awhile. Then you should already know how to make profit. If you don’t know then that’s just too bad. your going to be a whiner for the rest of your guild wars life.

Tips: . Everything in GW is going in circle. What I mean in circle is you have to make time for your self to gather some gold or farm some greens and sell it, not just play and do mission and work on your title. Do what I do. I tomorrow work on my title, next day do missions, next day do some farming, next day sell to make profit. GW is base almost like real life the only thing is sometimes it does get boring. But hey if you want something then you have to work hard for it.


gw:end demonstrates how the game designers are loosing touch with the average player.

No, I mean like a body suit and not base on any of the armor set.

I'm fortunate to have been reminded today by a great guild friend I've known for over 2 years why I even liked and played GW in the first place....

...specifically to avoid that attitude and type of gamer, no offense intended.

My point being that maybe it's time for those that object to the price of these items to take a step back, a few deep breaths and remember why they were attracted to playing Guild Wars in the first place.It sure as heck was'nt to get worked up about high-end vanity loot.

I'm in no way trying to be self-righteous or jump on a "Down with teh leet loot!!" soap box but it's amazing how quickly such a grind for loot mentality and frustration can sneak up on you as it did me.

Before you know it your spending more time farming and grinding that you are playing the game and having fun....for glowie hands...in a game.

Lately I've been running around in my 1k canthan laughing at all the characters standing around with the chaos gloves, glasses, ninja mask, fiery hands, eagle armor combos.

I'm not dissing the gloves as I think they look great and each to their own but don't forget your roots or motivations for playing either.

Not sure exactly where this thread is going any more...

But if you want the Chaos Gloves then you have to earn them just like the rest of us, the price is what it is.

Having Anet devalue them after so many have already purchased them would be as big a slap in the face as when they changed the aquisition of Razah and gave back the gems that were now worth about 1/5 what we paid for them in the first place, those of us that could not farm them that is.

That's pretty awesome, looks expensive if there was one ingame.

Oh dear, am I alone in thinking that the devs have watched a few too many the fast and the furious movies a few too many times? :P

As to the price, if you don't like them (and I don't) the price hardly matter really. If you do like them and want them then there is your motivation for putting the time in on gathering the money and resources to have a pair. As the old saying goes, you pay your money you make your choice.

Oh and they look great on those screenshots of the female mesmers alongside FoW armour! As to ele FoW armour, if you want to go for the sports bike rider look then it's the armour for you really isn't it? Looks like you could fall of your bike at quite a high speed in that stuff and be ok. My personal tastes though veer more towards kurzick, monument and Ancient though (have a set of ancient so far, just wish the dyable areas covered more of it, as I tried lots of dyes but the only ones that went well with the rest of the armour were earth tones, so I went with boring brown.).

Overall though, on most of those screenshots, the chaos gloves looked more like an accident in a uranium processing plant than an item of elite armour.

QFT. LOLOLOLOL


Seriously though, I still think the only passable chaos gloves are the ones for mesmer. No forearm exposed! Still debating whether or not to get it for mine, I'd rather get some nicely skinned weps or something.

Lol, that pic of Crom's warrior cracks me up everytime. Oh yeah, Crom, you paid for those gems to get Razah before they made it easier to get him? That's not casual lol. Tsk Tsk.

To me the real question is... why are Chaos gloves... well.... Chaos anythings as popular as they are? It's easily the crappiest "elite" weapon/armor skin in the game; the things are clearly little more than photoshopped flares. Give me the horrid unwieldliness of Dragon Gauntlets any day xD

you guys are kidding right? this is pathetic.
you're all complaining about the fact that they're way too expensive. well guess what? you don't have to get them! zomfg!
there are plenty of other things around, the best stuff shouldn't be cheap. and what about those players that already have FoW armor and the rarest equipment in the game? should they get another campaign in which they simply have nothing to spend their money on? this is aimed at all of those people.

and back to the price...sure, it's a lot, but if you have nothing better to spend money on it's not really too bad. Personally, I never farm, and I've never gotten one of those ridiculously rare drops that make you an instant millionaire...or even anything close. however, just playing the game for...i'd estimate around 300 hours, and not spending almost anything during that time period, as well as a good amount of HM, i got up to 600k.
so if you played the game without diverting your attention to this self-righteous bitching, you'd be fine with it.

Would be more then that. Following the basic armor rules they have now, which is 2x for legs and 3x for head you'd end up with 600 ectos total. Your numbers above would need the chest bumped up to 225 ectos
