With those dual antennae, you'd get great reception if you hooked a cb up to it. "Breaker breaker, this is bo peep. My helmet sucks. Over."

But seriously, that helmet is not as bad as the Asura mini I saw today. I can't believe those are a playable race. It looks like what would happen if Bugs Bunny and Pikachu had a kid.

QFT. I was hanging out in Grotto yesterday and nothing but people bitching at how ugly the 15k Glads Helm is. And then there were the people following me around and then saying that it looks stupid/ugly. If you don't like it just don't buy it and stop bitching, life goes on as if there was never a 15k Glads helm.

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Corinthian Helms are GREEK.... Gladiators are from the ROMAN era.
That's one reason why you CANNOT put a greek helm in.
Instead of stating such obvious ignorance of history a REAL gladiators helm would've been the suitable thing to do.

Hmm, female version still is bloody awful if you'd ask me for a 15k version... I'll just stick on the normal ones... or my fow helmet, but this is ugly with the Joint Strike Fighter flaps on there...

it doesnt look too crash hot on the men, but i like for the female. :-) i love it actually, got it and dyed it black, and it looks quite good with istani armor also dyed white + black. doesnt seem to suit its set though.


and as much as ppl bag it out, omg take it away. its personal choice, you dont HAVE to have it. there is worse armor in game...ahem...dragon and wyvern armor? seriously...thats some serious gimp suit material right there.

Looks pretty good without the wings of stupidness, not worth 15k + mats though.

I do rather like the scrollwork and the shape of the helmet itself. I hope the designer has thick skin and can take all of these comments in stride. :P
Does the Euro version come with a converter?

And people say Necro fish armour looks ridiculous......

Make sure if you comment that you come up with a viable answer instead of a blatant display of stupidity?.

Normally I would be posting here, arguing as to why warriors are the only prophecies class to get their own set of helmets.... but:

http://www.guildwars.com/images/3dre...ior2-large.jpg

is it really that hard to make this design instead?? This pic has been around since the beginning and the closest thing to that helm is the Knight's Helm... I think people should just stick with the obsidian helm .... :S

Bunny armor ftw....

I think people are taking the "Gladiator's" armor name too literally....

As someone posted before, this helmet has been a concept art for a long time .-.

I think the problem with it is that it just doesnt really fit the rest of the armor pieces.

Protip:If you're going to be calling someone else dense,be sure to cross the T's and dot the I's.

The whole reason as to why I and many other people are disappointed with the helmet is the fact that they created the Gladiator armor, * gasp* similar to actual Roman Gladiator Armor.

One would only assume that we would actually obtain a helmet that actually resembles such a set of armor.

Compare This Bronze Statue of a true Roman Gladiator to the 15k Gladiator armor.

The similarity in armor (Aside from the helmet of course) is striking isn't it?

I don't know why I bother with this forum sometimes, go back to my original post and see what I replied to. He was being both rude and insulting, some people liked the idea of a "Corinthian Helm" which there entitled to because opinions are free however Emik didn't just disagree he went one step further...
