1 full set of Droks Druids... plus 5 other pieces when i need to alter attributes slightly.

2 full sets for warrior, Primeval purely because i needed a helm with +1 mastery instead of my Knights Helm w/ +1 Strength.

Ele, Mesmer, Necro and Monk have 1 full set plus a 55 set.

Rest just have 1 set.

I don't have completely different sets, but do have two or three pieces from the same set on each character, with different runes, so that I can swap attributes around, depending on the build's requirements. For example, my Ranger has three extra pieces from the same set which can be swapped out for either max Marksmanship, for Running, or for UW Trapping.

A long time ago, I tried the whole having more than one set approach for my Necro, but it took up so much storage space, I gave that approach up for my other characters. It's kind of fun trying to figure out which Rune/Insignia combinations on which pieces can be swapped out for most efficiency, requiring the least amount of armor. I usually carry one or two extra headpieces, a spare set of gloves and/or a spare set of boots.

Besides wanting a different look, the one build I can think of that really requires a completely new set of armor is the "55 farmer" and it's variations.

Two sets on my warrior. One for health when I PvP, the other for +AL vs. elemental for PvE.

So heres the poll:
Question 1) How many armor sets do you have on your favorite character?

Question 2) What do you use with these armor sets?
A)"I have it for looks, duh!"
B)"Farming"
C)"A change in build calls for a change in looks, everyone knows that"
D)"Other"

The reason i'm doing this is because i'm making a ritualist and I like at least 3 armor sets I want to get her. Thanks for the replies!
(This goes for obviously any class/any armor)
Gladiaor, ascalon, canthan, primeval, sentinels all 15k.

I have ALL for looks-they are all gladiator (energy)+ set... i wish i could change them now...

1) How many armor sets do you have on your favorite character?
My Warrior has 2 15k Sets and my Monk has 3 sets, one 15k, the other 1.5ks. My Ranger also has 2 sets, one 15k and one 1.5k. I don't have a "favorite character" as such.

Question 2) What do you use with these armor sets?
A)"I have it for looks, duh!"
B)"Farming"
C)"A change in build calls for a change in looks, everyone knows that"

All 3...I like the armor, I have lots of builds, requiring different sets, and I do, of course, like having the sexiest Ranger in my Guild :P
