What Droknars armor for a monk? - Guild Wars Forums

Woutsie · Dec 18, 2005, 02:33 PM // 14:33

I arrived at Droknars, but I really don't know what armor I should get...
What's the armor that most monks use?
I am going to dye my armor in pink (

I think it's pretty unique cuz there aren't many players that have pink armor...)
I have my eye on the Censor's armor, but as you know, that armor is already RED... And if I dye that armor, will the colors not be messed up?
I am also going to be a Healer btw.

the best looking armor is the monk wanderer armor. looks best on dark skin.

Yea ok, but I think I'm going to buy the Censor's Armor. But its already red and if I dye it, won't the colors be messed up? Thats what I wanna know

No, it won't mess up. And in case you'd like a gold look, try adding a Dye Remover to a Yellow Dye, and then apply it to your armor, I love it!

Does that really work? removing dye from the actual vial

It doesn't remove anything, it makes it (50%?) less visible, so the original color of the armor (which is some sort of sand color in this case, not red) shows too. On some armors it's quite nice

apply dye remover to yellow - apply the result to armor - makes gold - the cheap way - asked some strangers what color i was? - all said gold

I go for stats vs color effects.. but do spend money on dye to look good

You have engery bonus armor
You have physical protection armor
You have engery protection armor

I like how the wander's set dye's with the large texture area's. Been too cheap to try the better looking armor (the ones that use the rarer materials w/ same stat type). I also perfer the Star Pattern Tatto's due to being less common then the Dragon Pattern Tatto's.

The Censor's armor does change color nicely despite having a "red' base to it. Lean towards the darker color's.

i hate the looks but i wear the Ascentic tatoos (pink btw

) cuz they give energy bonus, which healer (or ANY other monk) despretly needs. i dont see the point of a monk using a -energy armor :/.... even if it looks cool youre gonna regret it, even if you got a +e stuff or a focus.

Be honest Shinto, it was my wonderous pink armours that inspired you

My Mo/Ra wears the censor's armour, with lovely shades of grey, because black didn't work. My sisters says I wear it upside down, because of a dark grey top and a light grey trousers.
I have 41 energy, and in Dragon's Lair I hardily run out of energy. Even when I'm the only healer.
