I posted in the Greatest Moments thread, in this section, about my greatest moment in guild wars so far being the moment I bought 15k armor for my assassin. This is what I posted, and it got me thinking about my other chars.

Future excitment moment I'm hoping for- I'm debating whether to buy 15k armor for my Paragon or for my oldest char Ele. My ele. has gone a long way with me and I think he deserves 15k armor more. and yes this is debatable for a casual player like me because I dont spend loads of time farming, its the last thing on my mind.

So I made this thread to see what other players think their oldest chars deserve. (Most Likely the oldest chars would range from Tyrian born to your first Factions char) you can mention why too if you'd like.

This isn't a thread for those players who want all the things in the game because they like to get all the high-ends, and best armor, and millions of platinum and all the titles etc. etc. This thread is dedicated to the casual player who does not look forward to farming all the time and debates what they should spend their gold on when they finally have alot.

My Ele- The oldest- Deserves KOABD title since he's been through so much with me. (I'll work on it someday slowly) and 15k armor. I have Ragos Staff and 2 high-ends but I think he deserves 3 more gold items.

My Ranger- Second to oldest- deserves more attention lol. I don't play her much. The only elite I capped was Barrage, so I can B/P through Factions. She has enough green bows and gold bows.

For Factions- I'll say my Ritualist although I made it after my assassin. I spoiled my assassin. My ritualist deserves 2 greens and 2 gold weapons.

Well, im the kind of player that keeps remaking chars... I get through the game, buy 15k and then bet bored of the chars face or whatever and delete it... my oldest char by now is my first factions char - my rit... imao she has already the prettiest casual armor she can ever have, two another armor sets for different builds - all of them very expensive, most of the skills(the one she doesn't have are the ones that are not needed, or some elites i didn't manage to get yet...

I think that what she deserves, is not to get deleted, and get through NF as well... I am realy proud of that char, for the abilities she has, flexibility, and original appearance ( never seen another rit with such a color/appearance combination of luxon and kurzick armor:P ).... So the she deserves to stay my olderst and primary char....

My first (female Tyrian monk) has already got most of what I'd like for her - her black 15k kurzick looks so awesome I'm making it for myself in real life in a week or two.

After, I'd like to complete her wisdom title and get KOABD for her, and then find some sort of armour I'd like for my warrior, though I don't like any of the armours too much. @_@ Hopefully the next chapter will be out by then or something...

My Necro, Countess of Carnage, is my first character, and I try to spoil her when I can. She's almost got all of Tyria explored (90-some %), and most of Cantha, though I haven't gone all the way in Cantha with her becase it's just so darn painful to go through more than once. I also made sure she's got a hat for each event I can be a part of (which only amounts to the Dragon mask, Pumpkin head, and Witch's hat), but she will get all from now on.

She deserves the best-looking (IMO) armor I can afford. Of all the FoW, I like the necro the best, so if I can ever afford it, I'd get it. I'm going to be getting her some 10k Ancient armor once I get to the Bone Palace with her, definately.

As far as titles go, eh. I'm not terribly fond of many of the titles. Although I wouldn't mind going after the protector/exploration titles with her, and above all, skill hunter. She definately deserves Skill Hunter.

My first char is my ranger who hates the world now since he got a Fungal Wallow mini pet. My next two characters to reach one year also got a Fungal Wallow each. They all deserve counselling to overcome the rage!

then comes my warrior, he deserves to be something else than a farmer. No chance though :P

So lets see....
My oldest character is a necro made in Tyria

Scar pattern 8k (grotto) set.......................check
Bonelace 15k set dyesd black...........check
Necrotic 15k set dyed black..............check
Luxon 15k set.................................check
Fow armor dyed black......................check
Finished Prophecies and faction..........check
Got all necro skills tyria and cantha.....check
Bone staff max dyed black................check
Joined all events and got all hat and helm ....check
Enjoy Playing the character...............CHECK

What she deserve:
A ghostly staff 20/20 req 8-9 death magic that I should find my self.
Finish Elona with all necro skills.
Travel from (elona) desert to tyria (desert)

I wanted to buy a Necro 15k set also from Elona but I do not like the full armor sets (they look like crap imo), i think i find a mix or so to get a part of it or maybe I just buy 1 set for fun and not wear it at all

The thing that my oldest characters (Proph) deserve is playtime.
Therefore, I got them all protectors on Tyria and Cantha and am currently progressing them equally through Nightfall.
So they are all on the mainland and at about the same quests.
Ultimate goal is protector.

My Monk has his 15K Kurzick, Yakslapper and Factions endgame green.
My Ranger has his various green and gold bows.
My Mesmer has his Willcrusher and (gold) Golden Phoenix blade (+19 ench) for IW.
My Necro (the oldest) has nothing special except a 55HP armor set, 2 greens and a gold staff.

I did not like the various 15K armors for Ne so far, so perhaps that's something to look for in Nightfall.
The only thing my Ne does more now than before is MM.
Did not like that too much, but my Ne wanted to do something else than curse and bleed.

So I got him a Golum and a couple of new Nightfall friends to play with.
He seems happy with that.
My Necro is not that demanding.
As long as things are dying around him and he gets his energy, he's happy.
Does not matter if it's friend or foe.

One thing I am working on is getting the various heroes my characters have their cool looking weapons. Just (almost) max damage, cool looking is good enough.
My characters just love to show off how cool their new heroes are.

My first char, a fem necro, deserve a lot. I feel bad for not playing her as much as I used to. just yesterday I've realised that dye on her 15k scar effect the bikini color, which, I think, is something new. now I'll dye it (chest and two leg pieces) black, to compliment the wicked black hat :] when the hairstyler will be interduced to the game, she will be the first one to go... (I'm also about to get her a full set of elonian necro skills, but she will have to work for that...)

I already did what my oldest character deserved: rerolled her in NF with the hair and face she should have had 18 months ago. Finally, elems get decent hair. Sadly, it does mean I will have to go cap all the ele elites again. Taht wasn't expensive or time-consuming......oh no.

My first character is my ele, and one of my least played.

But since he was around for Halloween last year, he gets to be the hat collector. He is also the only one with any progress toward Drunkard, from attending all the parties...

My oldest character... Angelus Creed (Necromancer)
He has 3 sets of 15k all dyed black (1 for MM, 1 for SS, 1 for Battery/Blood Spike - All of them maxed up on runes). 1 Green Staff for each attribute (Blood, Curse, Death - All of them 20/20 +5 EP, +30 HP)

My second oldest character... Gaden Aurelius (Warrior)
He had 2 sets of 15k (Destroyed 15k Platemail dyed black when Factions came out, stupid me), now he just has 15k Gladiator. He has a crapload of green weps, like 3 swords, 4 hammers, 2 shields, 1 axe. I just seem to have the best deals when it comes to buying warrior greens.

My third oldest character.... Sonne Feuer (Mesmer)
He has 1 set of 15k Enchanter's, dyed black. 2 Green staffs, 1 for Illusion, 1 for Domination. Hes a mule right now.

My fourth oldest character.... Shino Usagi (Assassin)
He has 1 set of 15k armor dyed black, 1 set of 1.5k armor dyed black. Perfect gold daggers 15^50, 20/20, +30 HP. 2 green daggers, hes usually PvP only at this point.

My fifth oldest character..... Hoshi Mitsuko (Monk)
He has 55 Farmer armor and 1.5k Luxon armor. Hes the cash cow and nothing more.

My first character, an elementalist named Lady Trinity, deserves some nice new armor.... she's in 15k Geomancers now -- just because i love the skirt and top... but most of the Elementalist sets of armor are skanky imo... LOL

i dunno, from a females perspective, i'd love to see some .... *cough* more covered elementalists armor lol i cant take my character seriously lol that and the comments of "oooh, hot elementalist!" from all the guys *sigh*

Ele's need an Armor Revolution! *prepares to be flamed*

But Gaile if you're reading this -- I'm in a guild with several women -- LOL it's funny but the guys like female ele armor more then the women.... most of them took Geomancers too... just for the 'elegant' factor... Help a girl out! LOL and if you need someone to design some of the armor... the girls from the KTG can help out

My oldest character, Ischade, is a Tyrian born warrior. If I had to pick out one nice thing for her for 16+ months of dedicated service to the land, i'd choose the maxxed wisdom title. (which would also give her KOABD) I think for as much travelling and fighting as she's done, she should be rather wise by now. =)

(and I want a req8, +5 energy chaos axe for my pve touch ranger)

My oldest character (made the day Prophecies came out) was, up until a couple of days ago, the only character I have without 15k armour. Got her Elite Sunspear and a Jayne's Staff. But she still deserves more elite skills than the 12 she's got atm.

My god, 6, or 7 Lol's in such a short reply.. is that a new record?
by the way, you won't need flameproof armor, I'll back you up with some healing/protection magic.. cause strangely enough, I agree with you on the skankyness of female elem armor

My oldest character is my Warrior, I've had him since the play early day of Prophy's release, he's currently sporting 15k Luxon Sentinels armor, with a set of 15k glads in his bag for those times when he needs the extra energy. He's also sporting a collection of useful axes, Kanaxi's, the Razorstone, a Totem Axe, and a nice cold damage gold axe I use on a certain build I've played with since the BWEs (one that got me called a hacker I don't know how many times, even by my own team once, just goes to show you what sweet skill combos can do).

:P the more "lol = take me less seriously = Less flaming :P

And addressing the armor -- even one of the guys in the making of DVD -- said he chose ELE as his favorite class..... "Just cuz she's Hot!"...

I'm not casual at all, but I'm still going to post.

My first character is a warrior and I do all the titles/gold making usually with him.

Well he was stuck with 15k Gladiator armor for a long time, I had other characters with FoW and figured it should be his time to get it as well. So I did and he's happy now, but if anything he deserves KOABD.

Because he was the main guy, he wrote most of my stories in GW, made most of my friends, even to meet a special person with him. Basically he's been through this year with me through thick and thin of it all. He's a character in a game yeah but I still feel like him in a sense since I've played with him so much. Cause when it comes down to it, he is a big deal to me.

On the ele thing. My lady likes Luxon 1.5k and Istani 1.5k, while I prefer more than anything the Kurzick 1.5k because of the way you can dye it. My favorite was Aeromancer. Yes I had people telling me my ele was hot, but not to many..maybe because I picked such a guy name. Hello Im Bunny One/Two informs them right away. But yes I do have Luxon 1.5k for my ele and gonna get Istani 1.5k. Because we like to match. I bet you like the ele dance don't you gentrinity?

My 1st Character is a War/Mes and she deserved all skills of my account.

But due to ANet, she cannot get them.

If I switch her 2nd class, i cannot give her a skill, which I can give to one of my heroes after 2nd class switch. That's not fair, but even in GW life is not fair.

My oldest charactor, my elementalist, deserves alot, I got prot of tyria on him, and 15k aeromancers.... then i got horribly bored with him, the playstyle just wasn't mine!

My next oldest charactor (younger by 1 month and like 3 days), Is my current main charactor, he "deserves" whatever i can afford, whatever i have the ability to do, and however much time i can spend on him. He's my title hound, but still has only 1.5k armor. (1.5k droks druids is the only armor i really like for him)

I have 3 more charactors, but my newest one will be a re-made tyrian monk, and she will deserve to be an experiment. An experiment to see how fast i can get KoaBD, then PKM.

He is really the only character I've bought expensive stuff for (not like theres many good weapons to buy for him...) >_> Currently debating the looks between Primeval and old school 15k Druids (own them both).

With 9 slots on my CE account, the oldest characters (all on my non-CE account) are all simply enjoying retirement at this point.

Oldest char on my CE account deserves new armor - female ranger, she's had 1.5k druid's dyed white (with the old silver-yellow combo) for around a year now. I did get her a new pet (Flamingo ftw!) yesterday at least.

My oldest character is my female Mesmer, she has been around since just after the release of prophecies. What she deserves is Vabbi armor (I think that is what it is called, you know the 5k with rubies and sapphires) and a haircut...... Can't pick which is more likely, but I can't bring myself to reroll her to get the second.

my oldest character is my female ele, shes had regular aeromancer armor since before sorrows furnace, and she deserves to be my storage character. therefore, she is. shes ugly, useless, and i only put her through factions for her amulet of the mists. god i hate her...

i'd make a new ele male, but they just aint my style i suppose, out of all the other characters, ele was my first pick, but still remains my only hated class to play in pve.

Ah my female ele, still around and was my 1st character (When GW launched)
A vacation (from an-ingame perspective).

Born in ascalon, go through destruction of her homeland and being part of some grand prohices fight a lich/titan armor, hope on a boat to help mhleno to a foreign land... go through night of the living flesh while being treated as a "foreigner".. then find there way once she's back at her home to find some god trying to destroy the world and goes to a new land called elona

Meanwhile getting confused about the "afterlife". When she dies does she go to the Halls as the dragon said or the mists as the envoy's told her?... she's confused. This is assuming she can help stop oblivion for the planet by the new threat

And she's still too poor to have cool looking armor, but a master of magic from the land of Tyria and Cantha and still growing in power with the lands of Elona.

My Tyrian ranger deserves a set of FoW armor, which is exactly what I'm working on.

progress so far: boots crafted, 80 ectos, 30+ shards

He already has 3 sets of 15k armor (Studded Leather, Druid's, and Canthan), so FoW armor seems like the next logical step.
