Ah hold on - what's woad? I mean I know what it is - is it a substitude helm like tatoos? It would be a great way to get around the nasty helm.
EDIT: Ok, if that is the female warrior set I am not buying it! ANet, you've messed up big time. Drop the silly spikes and make a decent armour set for the warriors!

I might just be interested in that if the images are good. HOWEVER I am not impressed with the rest of the armour. If the official guildwiki image is correct, I will not be buying it. The team need to work on a re-skin immediately - it looks worse than the male set!

Varajar Fells is where it's at. When you get Norn Hunting party rank 2, 3 then 4...and with Hunt Rampage on top the points go up SO fast. And it's not hard to kill something every 45 seconds in there...there are a good number of enemies which can be defeated with a little fire magic.
I maintain that it's a quicker way of farming reputation points than the Nornbear quest.

Thing is it takes much longer so personally I feel the need to take a break at least once. But it racks up 4,000-4,500 faction points each time at least if you clear the area, so it helps you level up real fast.

I dont even bother buying the 15(10)K helmets since I always turn them off anyway.

Yeah, right, thats gonna happen, they'll redesign the armor because you dont like it
Trust me, Anet does not care one iota if you 'buy' the armor or not, its not like they make money off it.

so.. you havent even seen the woad, but it sucks anyways?
Not a fan of the norn war armor. Not horrible imo, but definetly not great.
Still, I want to see the norn and highlander woad for war (if it's even different for professions). Woad instead of a helm could be pretty cool.

Helm = crap.
Woad = win.
Buy a Highlander one, dye it blue and charge at foes shouting "FREEEDOOOOM!!!".

I've been running around with Ascalon armor and an Elite Sunspear helm since a little after NF came out, just because I wanted to get as close to viking armor as possible. I was hoping to get the "real deal" here, but this doesn't look much different...
Here's what I don't get: If they already had a badass Norn helm made for Warriors... why change it to something more generic? Especially if you have a helm that already looks strikingly similar? It just doesn't make sense.

I can't, for the life of me, understand why you get this altered Charr Hide Armor instead of some great Norn-looking armor like this:

I wish people would learn what reskin means before shouting the "THATS A RESKIN!!!" crap.

I managed to get a screen shot of one of the Woads, not sure which one it was though and this guy wouldn't stop running around so I had to cap a screen shot fast.
Braveheart!
