I Need advice from someone who has FoW armor - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

For me, you should only buy fow if you ahve everything else you need. By this i mean All the armor, weapons, and shields you need. Assuming you want to get it for your warrior, make sure u have all the weapons that youll want before you blow all your money on fow armor. Nothing is funnier that seeing a warrior in full fow using a collector weapons, who sees a nice chaos axe and go "thats so awesome!" One more thing, get 300-400k more than youll need for fow, so you have some change sittin around after u invest. I do love my fow, nothing is better than someone running up to you and going "your armor rocks"

Don't get it if you aren't 100% sure you want it. On my warrior I have a set of 15k Gladiator armour but I wanted 15k kurzick as well. So I bought it and I never wear it, and I was doubting whether or not I wanted it in the first place. Now everytime I play my warrior I have to kick myself for wasting that 200k.

Akhilleus · Aug 14, 2006, 05:53 AM // 05:53

only buy it if you think it looks totally badass and you know you'll never regret it.
NEVER get FoW just for the sake of getting it; that is a massive waste of money.

extra bacon · Aug 14, 2006, 05:57 AM // 05:57

money will come and go, and if you don't spend it on armour, you'll spend it on something else. so if FoW armour is what you want, get it. besides, it's not like you're digging into your rent or food money to buy FoW armour, unless you get the funds and materials for it through non-legitimate means, of course.

Johno77 · Aug 14, 2006, 09:19 AM // 09:19

Bacon's right, yet i prefer to buy 15k armour and spend the rest on rare skinned weapons/other chars equipment etc etc. Warrior FOW armour is ugly as sin and makes you look fat

dont really agree with you :/

i almost finished my monk fow, and spend alot of work and time with getting the money for it, now when i finished with my monk i may start my fow warrior, but i just use my war for fow cave farming - using 15%stance crafted weapon

and hell why paying 100k+x/xx/xxx ectos for another weapon? thats money waste imho

then why waste 1mil+ on FoW armour when 1.5k armour does the same job?

whatever turns you on.

if you live your life trying to please others, will you ever be happy?

makosi · Aug 14, 2006, 10:50 AM // 10:50

Its entirely up to yourself what you do with the cash and if you have any doubt in your mind about it, consider carefully what else you could do with your masses of cash. You'll probably come to the conclusion that there isn't much else to do with the gold except buy high-end weapons. Not much more to say escept, if you aren't feelin' it, don't risk all that cash.

The Herbalizer · Aug 14, 2006, 01:16 PM // 13:16

can you afford to buy nice weapons / 1.5k / 15k armor after buying the fow armor? if you carnt i suggest you wait as being broke isnt fun especially when you want stuff.

if you arnt sure you like it then dont get it. only buy it if you really want it or enjoy playing warrior. if you like say 15k kurzicks a little less than fow armor you may want to consider getting that instead as its alot cheaper.

quoted for truth.

Morlandus · Aug 14, 2006, 01:48 PM // 13:48

Do me a favor.

Ask yourself WHY you want the armor.

If you can live with the justification you think up, go for it.

Me, personally? Hey, screw what other people think; if I want to look flash for the sake of looking flash, then damn it, me and Adam Ant are gonna be singin' Stand and Deliver baby.

Powerstick · Aug 14, 2006, 06:24 PM // 18:24

Hey Thanks for all those post i mean yesterday was only 2 posts and now in the moring next day its 32 am like holy crap

eternal pho · Aug 14, 2006, 07:27 PM // 19:27

Well, if you like the looks of the armor then buy it ^_^. Or just spend it on nice weapons.

2ndName · Aug 14, 2006, 07:29 PM // 19:29

I agree, really depends on you. If you like it and have the cash for it, go ahead. I was actually saving up for a set for my War, but then fell in love with the 15K Kurzick. Bought that instead and saved me some cash.

diamond dust · Aug 14, 2006, 07:59 PM // 19:59

i say just as long as you're 100% sure you want it, go get it. and it seems that you're convinced that you want it, so go for it and gl

i love my monk and my necro's fow armor. even if i dont use my monk's fow as much anymore because i got the 15k kurz, i still wear it. and im starting to wear it more again.

i was planning on getting my rit her fow armor too but i wasnt 100% sure about it. when they announced nightfall coming, i decided im just gonna wait and see if the derv or parry FoW is going to attract my attention more than the rit fow did. if its not then im getting my rit the fow. if it is, then at least i didnt get my rit the fow armor yet and it would have saved me the trouble of farming for materials for my derv or parry fow. so for now, i have the ectos and shards sitting and waiting in my storage

RotteN · Aug 15, 2006, 08:43 AM // 08:43

i spend way more than 1,5 mill on my FoW back in the days when i got it, and i haven't regret it. I'm never realy short of money, and i simply love the looks of it (pooling some spare ecto together now to get new boots and the new obsidian stoneskin gauntlets).

If you realy like the look, and you have the money to buy it, you should. In general, once you have cash, it's not that hard to make some more cash
