Which armor holds more prestigue? Obsidian or Vabbian? - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

FoW is a lot harder to get, to the point where you may be called an eBayer. Not just that, but, I agree, most of it is pretty ugly and can be beaten by various 1.5k or 15k armor dyed black.

I'd say go Vabbian. It's newer!

Neither 15k Druids & Studded leather FTW (lets hope you're a female ranger O_o)

Vabbian or FoW? Interesting question.

Seeing as nobody really seems to show any real interest in what other characters around them are wearing, I would choose the one that you think looks nicest. Your character; your choice of style.

I was going to get FOW for my Ele but decided to take a new Mes through all 3 campaigns instead. Money better spent.

As for the question, prefer Vabbian on both Ele and Mes, (which I have).

Personal choice.

I still think the female necromancer FoW armour is completely awesome. Although the comments I get on it are dwindling away.

It is a matter of taste, and there are so many other "prestige" things in the game, especially titles, that have taken away from the presitige of certain items that it does not really matter anymore. It used to be that the only way to truly show off in town was with armour or your Hero's ascent emote.

I saw some clown repeatedly spamming in town that he was now a "Legendary Spearmarshall" over and over again. Congratulations, you farmed for a few hours as a worm in Hard Mode, get over yourself.

We just do these things to please ourselves or call attention to ourselves, some of us just need the attention more than others.

FoW....I got mine when there was only prophecies, I thought it was the best looking necro armor in the game, so I farmed UW / Fow for months for materiels and got it....still the best feeling Ive had in GW, I truly felt a sense of accomplishment.

on the other hand most of my weapons are greens....so I guess it just depends on what you want to spend ur money on .
