Thank you for all your work!

Armour is definitely one of the highlights of Guild Wars... I just love looking at all the prettiness (and wondering how in the hell assassins walk with all that metal sticking out of them :x).

Awesome Job! That ranger armor makes me wish I had Nightfall(I've been wanting a different armor with a full cloak type). Thanks for the pictures.

I appreciate the work you put into this guide, however some better screenshots would make it even more worthwhile.

Very nice.

A small correction, at the Consulate Dock, last outpost on the island, you can already get those two sets with max al.

So...what's your bandwidth count now? Scutilla?

Paragon FoW armor (especially male) officially has the most kickass design in the game.

*Darcy* · Nov 02, 2006, 03:37 PM // 15:37

I noticed that with the female ele armor, the more you pay, the more material is included. So the people who have complained about the excess of skin showing for the ele can get complete coverage, but at a high price.

Mostly true... however, I'm in love with the female Ancient armor for both classes. Definitely getting those once I get Cristine and Nessa through the game

About a gigabyte so far...

EDIT: After browsing a little, it looks like Imageshack has much better bandwidth options (100MB/hr for each image, rather than 10GB/month for the whole account). I'll probably re-upload everything to an Imageshack account later so I don't run into bandwidth issues.

Will be updating in a few days, as soon as I finish the list of material costs and find some better images for some armors... here's the request list I posted on the GWO version of the thread:

MATERIALS

Elementalist
* 1k Istan
* 1k Sunspear
* 10k Ancient
* 1k Headpiece (available from any crafter other than the Vabbi one)
Mesmer
* 1k Istan
* 1k Sunspear
Necromancer
* 5k Vabbi
* 10k Ancient
* 15k Primeval
Warrior
* 5k Vabbi
Dervish
* 1k Istan
* 1k Sunspear
* 1k Elona
* 5k Vabbi
* 10k Ancient
Paragon
* 15k Primeval
Ritualist
* 5k Vabbi

Most of these, especially the 1k ones, would take about two minutes of your time to check, so if you've gotten to any of those armor crafters on those professions, it'd be great if you could post the material costs. Also make sure to note if the armor has a headpiece (most Ele and Paragon armors don't), and if it has a headpiece but requires different materials (Monk or Necro armors).

IMAGES

Elementalist

Since I noticed that you have a low quality pic of my ranger in Vabbian armor, here's a better one taken from the character selection:

Ah, so that was you? That was one of the last armor sets I found- ended up snapping a pic of someone standing around in the bazaar

Paragon Fissure Of Woe armor is such a dissapointment. I mean really...just look at it. I was expecting something elaborate with gold wings and fringes and all it looks like to me is they (ANET) gave up after the "so-so" Dervish FOW armor. God i wish they would accept some of the suggestions and fan art or get a better FOW armor designer because personally i think that the FOW armor should be something that stands out in the crowd....ALOT. The paragon just is bleh..teh suck.

I did finally find an image for it, funny story actually... Was dancing in huge Mad King mob in Kamadan waiting for him to arrive; I got bored so I started checking out the characters dancing by me. Lo and behold, there was a ritualist with that armor dancing right behind me

EDIT: Never mind, scamPOR was (sort of) right, what I thought was Vabbian is actually Obsidian without the teapot headpiece. >.<

scamPOR · Nov 03, 2006, 12:25 PM // 12:25

I'm almost positive that the armor listed as male rit ancient is actually rit FOW.

Nope, it's Ancient Armor. FoW armor has excellent head piece that makes you think they'll break their neck rather then being wrapped in bandages.
