Here's my paras monument armour set if u got any other vanguard set please share it here.

(no dye)

Sorry I don't understand this. Partly because I haven't gotten GW:EN yet. You mean there's a specific new armour set just for the monument or its an armour set by the vanguard?

Rhys · Sep 01, 2007, 12:35 PM // 12:35

You look like an ele...

Snow Weasel · Sep 01, 2007, 12:45 PM // 12:45

its an armour set by the vanguard, its just called "monument armour"

Redfeather1975 · Sep 01, 2007, 12:46 PM // 12:46

Snow Weasel, do the vanguard people have any common armor pieces?

Snow Weasel · Sep 01, 2007, 12:49 PM // 12:49

Dont think so thats all the vendor sells in my screenshot.

vinegar · Sep 01, 2007, 02:52 PM // 14:52

grats on the armor! but sad thing, yet another reskin, i thought at least high end armor will be more original

Snow Weasel · Sep 01, 2007, 03:55 PM // 15:55

ye i know what u mean its a bit plane will proberly look better on a male character, i was hoping the para sets would have more visual armour on them like there supposed To have and not as Rhys said , make me look like an ele,

What about other classes Vanguard sets anyone got any screenshots of them?

rangersaurus · Sep 01, 2007, 04:17 PM // 16:17

Very nice. I will probably wait to ses what all of the other armors look like before I get one for my male paragon. By the way, what kind of spear is that... it's freaking badass.

Tyras · Sep 01, 2007, 04:23 PM // 16:23

I still wish to see male ele vanguard, see if its really worth going for.

Redfeather1975 · Sep 01, 2007, 04:34 PM // 16:34

That spear you have Snow Weasel looks really far out.
I like that spear.

Tyras · Sep 01, 2007, 04:53 PM // 16:53

How long & where did you farm the Vanguard points? I'm dieing to get to r5!

AlienFromBeyond · Sep 01, 2007, 06:11 PM // 18:11

Looks like a chainmail version of Elonian armor.

xcenic · Sep 01, 2007, 06:20 PM // 18:20

new 40 set armor my @%&%$, reskin everywhere and they want to us to grind for that sht?? NO WAY

HalPlantagenet · Sep 01, 2007, 08:25 PM // 20:25

I find all incesant discussion about "re-skinning," very curious. Who cares whether some or all of the armor pieces are created by applying new texture maps over some existing geometry? The question is simply whether you like it or not. For my part, I am very fond of half of what I've seen and feel that rangers have been particularly well-favored, which is what I predominantly play. On the other hand, my warrior probably won't recieve new armor, which is just fine considering what's in his closet already.

However, with regard to geography, I haven't seen anything yet that didn't blow me away and I expect to visit every dungeon and instanced area multiple times.

So, lighten up. No one is forcing anyone to grind for anything. There's too much innovative, good stuff to do. Do you really need new clothes only two days after the game's gone live?

WinterSnowblind · Sep 01, 2007, 08:33 PM // 20:33

Most of the reskins don't actually bother me. In my opinion, most of the new armour looks alright, some of it is very cool. However, there are a few sets that are just awful. The male Warrior vanguard armour for example is just atrocious.

Like I said, reskins don't particulary bother me.. but here it's very obvious where each of the pieces have come from, and they don't even look like they fit together. I've been defending most of the armour sets seen so far, but this is really a case of take it out, and try again Anet.

wolfwing · Sep 01, 2007, 08:33 PM // 20:33

Well I think it's partly a case of...were the original skins good to begin with, some classes I'm not really happy with their designs, Dervish...really the norn is the first armour I think looked really cool.

Thats worse

shogun avatar · Sep 01, 2007, 08:44 PM // 20:44

Well male warrior vanguard is not THAT repulsive. i expected worse.
Although it's obvious reskin, i kind of like it. But again, that may just be the beer talking

Cathode_Reborn · Sep 01, 2007, 08:52 PM // 20:52

It's not really the fact that the reskins don't really look that impressive, but mainly the fact that they actually used reskinned armor. It screams laziness and stupidity. Being the last chapter of GW1, I honestly didn't think they'd really do that.
