If the two 'horns' were similar to the shoulder blade, I think it'd like quite nice. Until then, ahaha.

The female version of the helm looks a lot better than the warriors version, but still pretty crappy. If they would just have removed those things on the sides it would look much better.

IMO all the tank helmets look pretty bad. Why should this be any different?

This is what they should have made the 15k Gladiator's helm into:

I have 15k glads, and when i saw this helm i nearly stabbed myself. Although i never show my helm, if i had that i wouldent even have it equipped. But i love my war's hair too much to ever hide it (short of a festival hat).

Why does this helmet contained those two plate things that stick up on the front side?

Some of my guildmates have revered to it as an "Orcish" helmet. I actually, agree.

That thing is quite ugly...

Looks like they got some intern to design and model it, cause it definately doesn't look good at all.

It's not THAT bad...
But i too agree that it would've been more appropriate to include an ACTUAL gladiator helm.
Afaik Gladiators were Roman yeah? So Corinthian Helmets are a no go.
The other helmet show (the one that MAximus wears in Gladiator) is a Spaniards helmet.
Let's tick to this and i think most will agree

^ I disagree. That helm is butt ugly. I don't care if it's what the "real" gladiators wore. This is a video game and I wear what looks good, not what looks the most realistic according to the facts.

Corinthian Helmets look awesome I hope GW2 has them.

Imo, the new gladiator's helmet isn't very impressive.

I think this one would have been much more suitable.

I hope this is an easter joke. It's probably the worst helm I could imagine for one of my favorite armor sets.

There's too much armor on it to fit with the Gladiator style. Gladiator armor is all about lots of bare skin and minimalism. That helm has way too much on it. I feel like my warrior wearing Gladiators would never want something so heavy on his head or covering his ears.

Please do over. If it's gonna stay at least give it +1 to headbutts.

you all are going to cause whoever designed this helm to jump off a building. I feel bad for the person who designed this because its getting alot of bashing

They all work hard for your request and all you do is bash them, sad.

It matches the male bra and skirt pretty well. In ridiculous factor at least.

It's gladiator armor, FFS it's not supposed to look pretty. If you don't like it, don't buy it. It's that simple.

Why do you hide your face? lol. I like the mouth guard thing. It would be pretty cool to intergrade into an actual armor.
