Armor preview tool - Guild Wars Forums

Heya Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone new of a tool available for download or web based that gave us the chance of previewing armor designs on our toons before dropping the gold to get different armor pieces. Basically, I want to mix and match pieces to get the look I want without losing a good chunk of my gold

thanks for looking!

Nothing I can think of. However, what some people do is just use the render models linked on the right side of http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Armor and just piece them together in Photoshop / other graphics editing program. Doesn't take much knowledge of the software either.

Alternatively, find a friend with the combo and ask them to wear it so you can see. There's also the screenshot request forum further down where you can ask people for pics. That might help you out too.

rawr I also want that tool... I spent 100k yesterday because I "thought" an armor combo was cool. Turned out, it's crap.

I'm afraid there's no such tool, when im buying expensive armor which could look iffy, I generally copy the armor pics from wiki into Paint Shop Pro (or any image editor) and chop them down a bit. It can give you a reasonable idea of what it'll look like, just be careful that you know where gloves and boots end etc.
