Default New screens - Dervish armor?

http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=76724

A few nice new ones, but one really stood out.

Could this be some new dervish armor?

If you look, you can see its a human female body. At first I though a Ritualist cause of the the mask. But the stance, the skirt/armor and what seems to be a scythe in her hands make me believe its a Dervish.

Not really sure what tot think of the mask/hood, but the hands sure look awesome.

Also shows a new Jelly type of monster.

The mask kinda reminds me of Sektor from Mortal Kombat.

But the hands...WANT WANT WANT.

Think those gloves are gonna be pretty popular with all Dervishes, not matter what the rest of the armor is. Really hope this isn't some NPC.
It wont be a Hench or Hero, since they don't wear headpieces.

He probably isnt aware its from the Gamespot image gallery and ANET has confirmed unique pieces of armor. One of the devs said how would you like to have a pair of cool glowing fire gloves! So those gloves will be available for all classes.

Cool, while it's an unpopular view i do think hardcore gamers should get more unique stuff than casual players but who knows, i mean those gloves look pretty good, and i hope they have super stats

Wow, guess I missed that, but that does sound cool. Kinda makes sense, since the hands didn't really seem to go with the rest of the armor. Can't wait to see what else is gonna be there...

You mean beyond FoW armor, and all the faction and susnpear grind skills?

No thanks. Make these end game weapons so they are hard to get, but not impossible.

i think there is the possibility that the flaming hands could be a skill to make scythe attacks even stronger for all we know but if it was armour dontya think there would be other pieces of the as well and i think gw normally show full proper sets before releases

First, learn to use capital letters and silly stuff like . and ,

After that, scroll up to read Seissor's comment on what a Dev confirmed.

no idea what interview it came from, i googled too many to recall. but the guys asking the questions asked about armor and the guys at anet said 40 sets plus some extra unique pieces, and then one commented about an ele with glowing firey gloves. The magma like gloves in the picture look very similar, so im assuming thats one of those unique new items and its available for all classes, kinda like festival hats.
