What armor should I get? - Guild Wars Forums

illidan009 · Sep 04, 2008, 09:43 PM // 21:43

I have all the campaigns and I can probably get most of my characters to any continent. I have(all female): War, derv, sin, mes,ele, necro, rit and monk. I want to get an elite armor for one of them...anyone have suggestions? I searched armor art on wiki but can't really imagine what they'd look like in game so please post your opinions

Thanks!

I hope this post doesn't actually belong to QnA :P

For female warrior, get Elite Kurzick. For Ele, get Elite Canthan. For Necro, get a mix, a sexy mix. For Monk, get Elite Kuzick. For Rit, get Elite Kurzick. For sin, get a sexy mix. For Mesmer, get a sexy mix.

That about sums it up. Have you checked the Screenshot Exposition forum threads?

yep above sums it up, but keep in mind that you should buy what you think looks good, you should check out the screen shot exposition forum it has an armor thread for each of the professions.

what is your main? I suggest start with your main first. Once you have gotten the armor you want for your main move on to the next character. Letting other people choose for you is not really a good idea.

Very difficult to answer... As it is your character, something that looks hideous to me could look great in your opinion.

Anyway, my opinion:

+ 1 vote to Elementalist Elite Canthan (I have a pink set, she often gets compliments in outposts)

And also Elementalist Elite Vabbian. Expensive, but I love it.

Mixing Elite Kurzick, Vabbian and/or Elite Glads on my female Warrior. I think that despite the differeing armour weights, they look fun together. Then again I like to play dress-up.

Ele Elite Canthan:

Konig Des Todes · Sep 04, 2008, 09:57 PM // 21:57

I would just go ahead and say my personal favorites, however, I tend to try to put armor connections to the character's origin *continent wise, for the cores*, and based on name *for instance, I have an ele called Kaiserin Des Eises (Empress of Ice in german) and I got her Elite Iceforged*.

So without knowing anything I'll just say my overall favorites:
Warrior: Silver Eagle, Elite Sunspear, or Elite Kurzick
Dervish: Elite Sunspear, Vabbian, or Norn
Assassin: Elite Imperial, Elite Kurzick, Vabbian, Norn, or Asura
Mesmer: Vabbian
Elementalist: Ancient or Elite Canthan (least slutty looking)
Necromancer: Elite Kurzick, Elite Luxon, Elite Sunspear, Norn, or Monument
Ritualist: Obsidian *without head* or Elite Imperial
Monk: Elite Saintly, Elite Kurzick, or Monument

depending on how that future HoM update will swing, (currently) you may want to only buy Elite armor sets for your main character.

To add on to that, get different kinds of armor. Like one Elite Kurzick, one Elite Canthan, etc. etc. So that you won't have doubles and even more armor shows up in your HoM.

Go here and look at all the different armor and pick which one you like. Everyone here will recommend every single armor in the game and you still won't know.
