Default Favorite armor skin?

Well, I didn't know how to exactly word it, so what I mean is this. Say for example I'm talking about 15K luxon armor. You would compare the monk armor skin to the warrior to the assassin to the etc etc. Here are the categories:

(No Prophecies ones because they're all different)
(I'm only comparing high-end armors)

Obsidian (15K) -

Canthan (15K) -
Luxon (15K) -
Kurzick (15K) -

Elite Sunspear (15k) -
Vabbian (5K) -
Ancient (10K) -
Primeval (15K) -

And here are my choices:

Obsidian (15K) - Monk

Canthan (15K) - Warrior
Luxon (15K) - Assassin
Kurzick (15K) - Warrior

Elite Sunspear (15k) - Elementalist (Since this one is different for each gender, I'm talking about the female one)
Vabbian (5K) - Warrior
Ancient (10K) - Ranger
Primeval (15K) - Warrior

As you can see, most of my choices were dominated by warrior.

So, what's your favorites?

Krytan / Imperial : male Ritualist
15k Imperial : female Ritualist
Tyrian / Exotic : male Ritualist
15k Exotic : male Ritualist
Shing Jea : tie between the female Mesmer and the male Elementalist

15k Canthan : male Ritualist
Luxon : male AND female Monk, female AND male Mesmer
15k luxon : this one is a bit hard - i am currently saving for the male Ritualist - but i am very fond of the male Monk one too!
kurzick : i love the male Ritualist BUT i have to say male Warrior here
15k kurzick : male Ritualist
Istani : not a fan of anyone BUT if i had to choose - male Warrior or the female AND male Monk
Sunspear : male Necromancer
Elite Sunspear : love the female Elementalist BUT because it looks fugly since the skirt is tied to the legs so - male Warrior
Elonian : male Dervish
Vabbian : female Necro
Ancient : male Ritualist
Primevil : male Monk
Obsidian : although the only one i might ever buy is the male Ritualist - i have to say i love the female Assasin

c1 armours:
warrior : 15k male gladiators
ranger : 1,5k male studded leather
monk : male 15k wanderers
necro : female 1,5 tormentors
mesmer : male starter (eg ascalon)

I do not understand why there is no prophecies armors involved, since they are indeed one of the best look armor sets in the game.

Presumably because Prophecies armors aren't organized into specific sets the way Factions and Nightfall armor is...

real disorganized and outdated armor system, Prophecies. Pity, too, some good armor skins wasted on sub-par stats...

here are my choices:

Obsidian (15K) - Hard to say, I don't really like any as a whole... Maybe Ritualist Male, and 2nd comes Elementalist female

Canthan (15K) - Ranger Male
Luxon (15K) - Warrior Male
Kurzick (15K) - Ritualist Male (only chest and legging pieces)

Elite Sunspear (15k) - They all sorta suck but the Ranger Male was REALLY made well, I must say.
Vabbian (5K) - Necromancer Female (hot..)
Ancient (10K) - Paragon Male cause I have it, But one I like and can't have is Ritualist Female.
Primeval (15K) - Ranger Male

Obsidian - Male Dervish, hands down

I'm too torn on all the other armors. I either like none of them in a category, or 2+

That is all.

Hey Arcane. What's with the dervish and Zasalamel?
Are their actual hooded, scythe weilding holymen that inspired the two?
Or did Anet just see Zasalamel, and think he looked to cool to pass up.

Hehehehe

I don't know, actually. I do know that if I worked for them, that'd be my reason! Zasalamel FTW!


And when they get around to adding a giant, two-handed axe -weilding behemoth as a class, I'll be playing that! Astaroth even more FTW!

A real pity indeed, since my favorite Elementalist Armor skin happens to be 15k Hydromancer's.
