1: I have one set of armor for each of my Characters. but I do have different head armor for build changes.

2. The sets I use I have for function first, then looks.

KANE OG · Apr 06, 2007, 11:54 PM // 23:54

3 on 10 different characters because I can afford it.

All my characters only have one set of armor each. The only exception is headgear (My necro and warrior top this out with three each)

**Marty Silverblade** · Apr 07, 2007, 12:07 AM // 00:07

My Warrior has 3; 15k gladiators, for running and high energy needs (and because the 1.5k is so ugly); 15k dragon, because it looks really good, and my preferred armor bonus is +10AL vs. elemental. It's my most used set. I also have a 1.5k knights, because there is no 15k set, I like having a large, bulky metal armor with lots of shiny bits. I don't really use it much unless I'm in easier areas for whatever reason and I want to look good.

My Elementalist has 2 atm, although I may get a third. She has 1.5k pyromancers, because fire is quite common in PvE, and I don't like the 15k version. She also has 15k aeromancers because it's hot, and lightning damage is also kinda common.

1) I have 1 set of armorfor my warrior ( favorit character), BUT, I have 5 pairs of glove( one for each superior rune) and 2 helmet ( strenght and tactic)

D) this give me a lot of flexibitliy on my builts without destroying my budget. I can do most built with ony a few minor change to the attribute point most of the time. It also leave me a lot of room for new built.

My necromancer has 3 sets. My warriors each have 2 sets. My elementalist has 4 sets. A., C., and D. Basically I want to look good while at the same time using the right armor set for the right situation. And sometimes I will just use whatever armor I feel like if whatever I am doing does not require a specific build/armor.

Question 1) How many armor sets do you have on your favorite character?

So far I got 11 pves

~ Tyrian Warrior: 3 sets (Vabbian, Primeval, 15 Gladiator)
~ Canthan Necromancer: 1 set (Luxon 15k) - I plan On getting this toon more the moment I take her deeper into tho the other campaigns.
~ Canthan Ranger: 2 sets (15k studded leather, 15k druids) - I plan On getting this toon more the moment I take her deeper into tho the other campaigns.
- Ritualist: 4 1/3 sets (15k Kurzick, 15k Luxon, Ancient and 1 Fow Helmet) - I'm still working on getting the rest of the fow, but i'm not that in a rush.
- Paragon: 2 Sets (Vabbian and Primeval)
- Canthan Elementalist: 6 sets (Luxon 15k, Kurzick 15k, Vabbian, Sunspear Elite, Ancient, Canthan 15k)
- Elonian Monk: 3 (Ancient, Kurzick 15k, Luxon 15k) - She has a full set of hair so I'm don't worry of getting expensive maxed headpieces. :-D
- Assassin (Male Version): 7 Sets (15k Kurzick, 15k Luxon (2 sets for different functualities), Canthan 15k, Imperial 15k, Ancient, Vabbian) - I would get exotic 15k if it was sooo disturbing.
- Assassin (Female): 7 Sets (2 15k Kurzicks, 2 15k Luxons (For Different Functualities), Canthan 15k, Vabbian, Ancient. - I hope the up and coming armor for the female sin is something sensual and sexy at the same time with a hard edge.
- Elonian Mesmer: 1 (15k Enchanters) - I plan On getting this toon more the moment I take her deeper into tho the other campaigns.
- Dervish: 3 (Primeval, Sunspear Elite, Vabbian)
My favorites are Ritualist and the Assassin.

Question 2) What do you use with these armor sets?
A)"I have it for looks, duh!"
B)"Farming"
C)"A change in build calls for a change in looks, everyone knows that"
D)"Other"

How about all of the above. LOL. What can I say, I love going out pricey. Good looking people like me should always have the finast of things. LOL, yet diverse which is why I am only getting Fow for the Rit Only. Fow would just unmotivate me to diversify the character i buy it for.

Mari Wolfe · Apr 07, 2007, 02:27 AM // 02:27

-Tyrian Elementalist(F) 1 set 15k aero with a full set of headpeices for each attribute

- Tyrian Necro(F) 1 set 15k scars with bloodstained boots. I now have a 1.5k DM sunspear face scare with a bloodstaind insignia and plan to get 15k foot scars to complete the armor.

-Tyrian Ranger(F) 2 sets desert collectors and 15k druids + a set of masks.

-Tyrian Warior(F) 3 sets Tyrian(Knights Variant), Knights and Vabian(With knights sinsigna) I have sword and axe helms for the Tyrian set; sword and hammer(with stonfist insigna) for the Vabian. Planing on getting a set of 15k glads for high energy builds.

-Canathian Assasin(F) 3 sets Seitung, 1.5k Exotic and 15k Luxan all in valkyries

- Elonian Paragon(F) 2 sets Istani and Vabian both with survivor insignia. I will probably get a set of ancient just for looks when I have the cash spare.

- Elonian Dervish(F) 1 set Vabian

- Canathian Msmer(F) 1 set 1.5k Canathian character has not yet finished any campain and so has not earned a 15k set.

In all cases I have kept the none ascended sets for looks and charactor history. On the charactors with only one set such as my ele I salavged the old set for materials and money or because I did not like the looks and they were just to get the character to the point where she could get a 15k set.

NeHoMaR · Apr 07, 2007, 04:02 AM // 04:02

I always have ONE set of armor per character. I salvage old armor when crafting a new one, doesn't matter if it's 15k dyed black. (Obviously I have different headpieces for each attributes I need)

1) How many armor sets do you have on your favorite character?
3 sets on my Ranger.

2)What do you use with these armor sets?
Certain very specific builds. +energy is better than anything else if I go full trapper (sometimes farming, sometimes not). I've also got a +health and stance +al set, and I switch those depending on specific needs. Lately, I've been using the Health armor almost exclusively.

Calen The Civl · Apr 07, 2007, 04:39 AM // 04:39

I play ritualist as my main character. As such, I like to play a wide range of builds from spirit spamming to spirit's strength. Because of this I run 5 sets with 2 headpieces each with a different superior rune based on the builds for that armor set (I do go for looks too. I only use my favorite 15k skins, and vabbi as well)

I have a duplicate of the Ghost Forge line of armors (different skin than my most used) because of different rune needs for some builds.

All the armor gets to be a pain to swap into because I rarely play the same builds for long. However, I have noticed just how flexible this makes my ritualist.

FoW, 15k Glads, Primeval, Vabbian, E Sunspear and 15k Luxon. So 6 sets.

Question 2) What do you use with these armor sets?
D)"Other" I'd say it's a mix between, showing off for a bit, even though I mostly walk around in glads. I use some armors mainly for farming, because I rune-customized them so they would fit into multiple builds of mine. Another reason I got FoW is purely for a change of the look sometimes.

see above

This way of working with armor goes for all my characters btw...

EatMoreCarbs · Apr 07, 2007, 04:54 AM // 04:54

1)
1 - Will be 2 tommorow

2)
One for function, one for looks. Mainly because i dont wanna look like every single other Ranger with Droks Druids.

NeHoMaR · Apr 07, 2007, 09:36 AM // 09:36

I always try to get an armor as balanced as possible, that way I can use just the same armor for everything. I think a LOT choosing the more balanced armor, even making a PvP character for easily make the armor I want, and replicate it in PvE. With Nightfall, choosing armor is a lot easier, because you can replicate exactly what you want.

LONGA · Apr 07, 2007, 10:12 AM // 10:12

Most of my playing chars have 2 armour set and the answer is for C

Andisa Kalorn · Apr 07, 2007, 10:15 AM // 10:15

Ele - 6 sets
Mes - 5 sets
Monk - 5 sets
Necro - 3 sets
Rit - 3 sets
Derv - 3 sets
Sin - 3 sets
Ranger - 2 sets
War - 2 sets
Paragon - 2 sets, going to be 3

All purely for the looks. If it helps with builds, all the better, but I'll wear useless armor if it looks good because pve isn't exactly difficult. I have all the armor I think looks nice. Except for two, and that will soon be remedied.

BenjZee · Apr 07, 2007, 10:25 AM // 10:25

monk has:
basic ascetics from LA for 55 hp farming
15k judges armor with foot pattern for main healing build armor
15k kurzick without runes at this time but will be for protection build

15k primeval on its way but i don't know what i will use it for

Saphatorael · Apr 07, 2007, 10:52 AM // 10:52

2 main armor sets on my monk.

1 has Wanderer's stats, and is for use in PvE. Staying in the backline, the only stuff that usually hits me would be spellcasters, so some extra armor against that is always useful.

The other set has +hp, for use in PvP.

Of course I also have some interswitchable pants and headgear, depends on if I'm protting or healing.
