I buy the expensive armor due to the looks.

As a girl, I must have a very fashionable sprite with the most vivid, tasteful of colours upon her wardrobe.

And yeah, some guy once went up to my non 15k-wearing Ritualist(I don't like the 15k armor for Rit) and was like, "Hey girl, nice armor...how much was it? 900gold? hahahaha"

I mean..wtf. -_-;;;...

I'll buy what I think looks good..
Warrior: 15k Kurz, 15k Lux
Necro: 15k Lux
Monk: 1.5k Kurz
Ranger: 15k Druids

but nonetheless, the majority are 15k.

If I can get the function & the fashion, that's what I go for.

My Warrior has 15k Gladiator's armor with a 1.5k hauberk. She doesn't have the 15k hauberk because she doesn't want her boobs popping out during battle.

My Monk has 15k saintly armor - she's kinda high-maintenance.

My Ranger has 1.5k Druid's armor - the 15k version looks slutty, according to her.

My Mesmer has (hard earned) FoW Enchanter's armor - she hated running around the battlefield in her nightie.

I have 15k Wanderers armor for my monk. Why ? Because I like how it looks, and it doesnt make him look fat (yes, he does look fat in other armors) and I dyed it black because it looks cool. Did i eBay money ? No, hell no! I used a Mo/R shiverpeaks running build and made around 50k, bought materials, and got my armor, and it looks AWESOME! Props to ANet for making the art on it so cool ^_^

I dont buy 15k armor because its 15k, but because it looks cooler.

I go on looks and looks only. Most of the time, 15k looks better, especially in Prophecies, but this is not always true. I'd never buy 15k female Druids armor in Prophecies, for example. Running around in a string bikini decorated with a few sticks attached... no thanks. This happens even more often in Factions... especially with the faction-specific armors, the 1.5k version looks markedly superior to the 15k. Which is great; it means I don't have to spend as much money to look good.

As long as the armor is max al for the character, it's looks first then functionality. If that mean I have to do with less energy, so be it.

Now.. if I had that sort of money for weapons... oh well, that'll come with time.

The only character that I have that is not based on looks is my male monk.

When I play him all I see is the team health bars, I don't care what he looks like.

For everbody else, it's all about her back that I am going to be staring at all day, might as well make it worth looking at.

my 5 cents...

NO ONE CAN MAKE 1 MILLION PLATS, AKA 1 BILLION GOLD, unless ur that noob i remember peeps talking about who did nothing but ebay and has 3 accounts, 18 chars with FoW armor and the customized 15>50 req8 crystalline

I don't mind how people spend their money, hell I have over 900 plat and nothing to do with it... I just think equating armor with skill is poor judgement. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Anything that can be bought in Guild Wars cannot be associated with skill, because obtaining huge sums of money does not always equate to high skill level.

LOL, you just owned yourself.

Id have to agree with majoho here. I will not ever buy 15k armor, unless it gave 10X the protection of 1.5k. Unlike most of the posters here, I dont give a rats ass about looks. As Ive said to some other people, if it gave something like 120 base armor for necro, Id wear a damn clown suit. As much as many of you are into looks, is how much Im into functionality. I might SEEM noobish at times(been playing 8 months now), but thats because I dont bother to study games to the point where(in GW) I can recognize a skill from its picture(if I dont have it), I just "learn as I go", and lookthings up when/if I feel I need to.

Question.

From what I've read - FoW armor sounds like the elitest of the elite in terms of armor....even though most of it just looks disgusting and I'd never buy it.... So, when it comes to the rest of the armor, surely 15k Kurzick armor is the next most 'elite' armor there is since you have to obtain so many bloody amber chunks for it? Then Luxon armor, since Jadeite is cheaper, and then all the other 15k armors?

It seems that it's not just me who goes on looks rather than cost...that's encouraging!

QFT. Anyone who has been playing since Prophecies started pretty much has one of the best weapon or something very close like collectors stuff with some mods. After awhile, money is pointless in this game, good only for equipping your guildies with the best stuff. Prestige isn't really a big deal, except in the mind of someone buying the armor, because GW really is designed for the casual player, where skill matters more than level. Best way to say this is that someone will always take you in their group, regardless of what you are wearing. The only thing I ask people about their armor is if it is infused when we will be fighting Mursaat. I've been in plenty groups where people got their shiny new armor and forgot to infuse.

If the armor or weapon looks good aestetically, I'll buy it for my toon if my resources can handle it. Unfortunately, many of the better looking armors happen to be 15k, and the pretty weapon skins (e.g., crystallines, phoenix blades, fellblades, etc) tend to go well beyond 300k+.

You do realize that a lot of people used EBay to get the gold for buying their 15K or FoW armors, don't you?

The expense of someone's armor has *nothing* to do with their experience or ability.

Well, exceedingly lazy people like me aren't likely to (that is, don't) have the money to buy FoW armour (not to mention 15k) even if it did consistently look better. Some do, some don't.

But since the functionality is all exactly the same, it theoretically shouldn't matter what kind you're wearing, right? As long as it's maximum stats? Right? Right?

while never having owned fissure, I have at least 1 15k on every character... none of the money was ebayed or came from great drops. Of course, running a farming build doesn't make me a good player either

just pointing out that not everyone ebays.

I buy armor for its looks, which is why I got some studded leather armor for my ranger, for dinner parties :-) not for battle.

often 1.5k is cuter than 15k or fow. but i do own fow for my ranger, looks cute.

I didn't mean to imply that everyone with 15K armor uses Ebay -- my point is that you can't judge a player's abilities form the expense of their armor.

I have two sets of armor for my main Ranger -- she wears 1.5K Druids (chosen for both function *and* look) from Droks, and 15K Druids from the Grotto. She has very fine weapons, earned by playing the normal game.

The 15K Druid's set is died black, which goes nicely with my toons' dark skin. Both sets of armor have identical stats; I use different masks to adjust attributes for various builds.

When I'm in ToA or Urgoz's, I wear the 15K, because it *does* seem to help getting into groups. With die and materials, I probably spent close to 100K on this set; as with everything in life, appearances do matter (even if they shouldn't).

When I'm solo exploring or henching it, though, I wear the 1.5K Druids. It just seems to make more sense for a ranger.

I can't stand most of the Canthan armors. The ones for the ranger are particularly ugly or stupid. Fishnet stockings on the Kurzick 15K? For a ranger? Weird.

I bought my 15k Kurzick armor for the looks. Previously I had just plain ol Droks 1.5k Platemail that ive had since there was maybe a max of 4 districts in Droks at the time. One time a couple of months ago I was doing one of the desert missions with my Ranger and there was a Wammo there spamming LFG I have a eternal shield and a chaos axe!! I had to laugh and then proceed to mock him.

The expense of someone's armor has *nothing* to do with their experience or ability.

Someone who eBAYEd gold for 15k or Fissure armor would also have enough gold for good weapons and gear and would be using those good weapons and gear.

On the other hand, someone in 1.5k armor probably has weapons that are not max dmg, with no mods or crappy mods, and gear that is not up to snuff. Chances are he is not wearing 1.5k armor because he wants to, but rather only because he cannot afford good weapons or gear and/or doesn't even know what good weapons and good gear are.

Hence I would dare to say that in most cases 1.5k armor does indeed indicate a handicapped character.

Thats silly. Max damage weapons are freakin everywhere from crafters, chests, drops, guildies, and collectors. Not to mention the increased green drops in Cantha. Gear does NOT make a better player. I for one would rather take a lower level character along on a mission that knows what the hell there doing than some jerkass in FoW armor that runs into every mob and instantly dies spamming OMG rez meeeeeeee!!!

They could have the most godliest weapons, gear, and armor in the game and still be an idiot.

Although I have seen a few people in ToA asking to be run to the forgemaster by an experienced team and offering to pay, for the most part, if you can afford FoW armour you have to join a group and get through three quests (albeit-not that tough) to get there to buy the stuff. Almost 80% of the time that I go into FoW with a team something goes wrong before we get there, people leave, bad players, ragequits over Shards, mad because they forgot keys, err7 disconnects, arguements over strategy, pissy monks, you name it, it can happen on these ventures.

I've had people reduced to cybertears because they got there (Finally!) after many, many attempts only to realize that they did not have enough Fur Squares or whatever to buy the armour.

Getting FoW armour is an ordeal and not only takes tremendous resources, it does take some serious teamwork to get to the point that you can buy it. Yes, there are idiots with FoW armour running around that were gifted the cash, ebayed it, or scammed it, but for the most part someone wearing the armour can be counted on to be a reliable and experienced player.

Seriously, I'm starting to get a bit angry at people who say "Most" or "A lot" or "many" people use Ebay. Where do you get your numbers from, huh? I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you "heard it" somewhere. Well, I know over 50 people who have 15k or FoW armor, and I've gone farming with most of them enough times to know that they farm to make their money. That's how MOST people make their money. They don't Ebay. They FARM. A LOT. If you aren't rich, then you probably don't realize how many people are on GW over 8 hours a day. At one point I had 1500 hours and an average of 10 hours a day. Some of my friends had more hours per day than I did. It's their choice as to how much time they can spend farming to get rich. Stop attacking people just because they work more than you do/have less of a life/whatever makes you feel you're better than they are.

That may be the dumbest thing I've ever read in these forums.

The best equipment will not make a lousy player any better. I'm never impressed by the equipment someone has -- if they're carrying uber-elite stuff, it could have been bought with EBay gold or with lots of game-breaking farming. And if they're bragging about their weapon... well, then I *know* I don't want ot play with them.

My apologies if I implied that. I know quite a few people, including one of my own daughters, who have FoW armor through hard work. Now if I could just get her to do the dishes...

My point was that people should not judge character ability by armor. I buy the amor that looks best, regardless of price. I love the look of FoW Ranger armor, but I don't have the time to farm the materials, so I stick to my 15k Druids.

Get over it. I had over 1500k in gold+ecto and my ranger still wears 1.5k Druids armor. Why? Because I like how it looks better than the other skins.

He also can choose between 4 main max damage/mod bows, 2 backup max damage/mod bows, max blood staff, minor&superior runes, etc. There's nothing else he needs in this game and I won't spend more money on crappy looking armor just because it's more expensive.

1.5k is no different from any other max level armor and judging people based on how much it costs just makes you look stupid.

I have Fissure (Obsidian as its now known) Armor on my ele. Before this I had 15k Aeromancer. I chose the 15K because i think it looks better than the other armor (especially pyromancer which imo is ugly and over used) and I thought the Fissure would be too expensive but then realised all i got to do if farm SF lots (as well as other places) to get it, and thats what I did. Yes it took a while but i got there eventually.

I have kurzick 1.5k on my warrior, a mixture of kurzick 15k and 1.5k on my mesmer, 1.5k on my necro and 1.5k on my ranger. I also have at least one green weapon on each character (3 for my ele, 3 sf staves apart from ragos, dont like it). I just like playing my ele most so i am happy to spend money on her. I will generally go with what i like the looks of most but that isnt necessarily the most expensive one, just so happens to be for my ele.

You make more money than you think just playing the game, without saving up my balance normally hovers somewhere between 50 and 100 plat.
