Hm.

Let's see ... I blew my cash on dye as well. I already had all-black 15K Enchanters, but I was tired of it. And all-black 15K Enchanters is just SO cliche. Ugh. So I dyed the coat and boots with a mix of red, green and black. I discovered I HATED it. I dyed it over with black AGAIN. It stayed that way for about a week. Then my GW computer broke down, and I was stuck on a very laggy laptop.

I couldn't do anything while on that laptop but just stand around in cities and outposts. I was bored out of my mind. So I blew more money on dye. I still wanted brown 15K Enchanters, so strip that black dye off, and use a red+green mix on it. I hated it again. But I was still bored.

I ended up just randomly mixing dyes, including black, and experimenting with them. My mesmer finally ended up with this dye job:



While my spendthriftiness isn't as impressive as some other people's here, I'd say I burned about 50K during that fit of indecisiveness.

- 15k Ascalon Helmet
- 200k on testing dyes and changing color of my armor (a lot of black)
- 100k Gold Fiery Dragon Sword 15-22 +15%^50 (req 8)
- 100k Gold Long Sword 15-22 +15%^50 (req 8)
- 200k for 3 Sword Pommels of Fortitude +30 Health
- XXXk for Warlord Summit Shield (req 9) +30 Health (always) -2 damage (while hexed)

I think I didn't spent too much money comparing to those who crafted the FoW armor (1.5m full set...that is by far the most stupid things ever in game).

I am waiting for Factions and I hope there will be special armors which look much more "normal" than the current FoW. I don't wanna look like a Pine Nut

Did you spend that all at once? I have many nice things similar to yours but I got them gradually over the last few months. *boggle*

Posted before, but I agree...



The damn things look the same as every other pair of gloves ><

^^ Agreed. FoW Mesmer Gloves are a waste, and am guilty of it too.

I know a bigger waste however... FOW WARRIOR HELM. Doesnt matter if it's tactics or strength.

Weapon +1 > Tactics, Strength
