Quick question:

I'm about to run to the Grotto with my warrior to pick up 15k Glad.

I already have a -2 absorption rune I can use (got it on drop

) and I know that this rune will not stack with other absorption runes.

I do know that Ascalon pieces provide a -2 absorption but also do not stack with each other.

My question is ... will the rune and ascalon piece stack together for a -4 absorption or do they not stack with each other, making it pointless to get an Ascalon helm?

it will stack. i think the common practice is to put absorption on knights/ascalon boots, essentially giving u 2+3=5 dmg reduce. dmg reduce from shield also get stacked, so if u use say a -2dmg while in stance, ull get 7dmg reduce while in stance

Thanks for the reply, I finally got my armor

This is my 15k Glad + 15k Ascalon Helm, silver dye across the board ... oddly enough, I find that glad looks nice with nearly every color but the default gold, lol.

Incidently, am I the only one who find the boots rather tiny?

Gotta really agree that the FOW armor looks nice only if dyed all black and is worn without the helmet and with a large shield. The botton looks horrible disproportioned.

My favourite armor is 15K dragon dyed all black (hide helmet since it looks retarded-just like most helmets in guild wars) With a shiny black crimson cpc shield or magmas shield, the look is complete. However, i would also put in knights gauntlets as well to get that extra absorption. However, unless you wield a large and dark shield and sword and dye the gauntlets black, it looks awkward. I'll post my pic soon enuff. I gotta say my character looks the most evil by far and dark.

Gotta say some of you guys and gals are posting the ugliest armor i've ever seen. The guys over at guildwars online are puttin you guys to shame. If you are gunna put armor together, make sure it goes together seamlessly. For example luxon and kurzik looks horrible. Fur with shiny metal? I'm really trying not to bash anyone. However, i had to get it off my chest.

Armor ive liked so far: arienrhode, sagaris, ondo, lint, jestah (without helmet)

I hate shadow shields, skeleton shields, all wooden-type shields, cheap knights armor, cheap platemail, wyvern, and cheap gladiator.

Best looking shields: black crimson cpc, exalted aegis, magmas shield.

wow you guys have mad awesome armor, look at my crappy stuff

StarSeed · Jun 28, 2006, 04:12 AM // 04:12

I personaly think Canthan 15k looks the best ;P

netniwk · Jun 28, 2006, 07:05 AM // 07:05

not the most original,but i like it

15k Kruzick>Fissure
with the exception of the helm

NO CONTEST (me on right)

I know people will be mad when I say that there is no way FOW looks as badass as the 15k kruzick, with the exception of the helm where nothing compares to the fissure helm. But here is the pic of the two armors and well I'm sorry to say this but the fow armor looks like junk when compared to the kruzick (The metal looks like it was taken from a dump and recycled). I think ANET should update the fow armor... I know people spent alot of money on it, I bought it for my necro, but IMO, Fissure and droks dragon armor are a close competition for the worst looking armors. Don't hate, your just mad cuz you spent a million gold on armor that is no longer the best looking. Just wait till chapter three when theres nicer helms available also, fow is still known as prestigious, but also ugly

If fissure is suppose to be the "best" warrior armor available as far as looks and prestige.... why did they make it so dull and crappy looking...Maybe it just needs a nice polish.. some shine! and looks like metal scales IMO

Best COMBO

15k Kruzick with Fissure Helm! No competition....

Kurzick does look nice, but there’s no way it has the uniqueness that Obsidian Armour has.

As for the blurring. Everyone but yourself in towns has details on their armour lowered. I don't think your graphics card could put up with 100+ people moving at full detail. Take a picture of in and out of towns with other players. You'll notice their armours details are heavily increased when out of towns. FoW armour does look crap in towns.

Your whole post is based on your opinions I guess this means everyone else's doesn't count? My opinion is FoW is better than Kurzick. Maybe I should rewrite this in your style of posting...

FoW > Kurzick there’s no comparison ever. Your hating because you wish you could afford FoW armour. NO CONTEST etc etc

Surly answers are going to be by personal preference rather than there actually being a best looking Ranger armour? Anyway welcome to the Warrior sub-forum.

I can afford fow... bought it for my necro...I just don't like it for warriors... but the detail thing in town I never knew and that does make a huge difference, i still like the kruzick better but thats my opinion as I stated! thanks for the info though

Raxxman · Jun 30, 2006, 12:22 PM // 12:22

I think its a close run thing between 15K Kurzick and FoW. I was going for FoW but opted for 15k Kurzick that I got with the sale of some shards. I also bought 15K for a guildie as well.

Still like FoW, but more than happy with 15k Kurzick
