They changed the helm from that GameSpy picture, but the rest still looks good.

Actually, there's spots people have been farming, as well as repeatable quests, like the Nornbear one.

Nornbear was how I started, Varajer Falls is how I ended it. For some inbetweens I did some Nornbear tournaments and a dungeon or 2, the rest was Beef Jerky, Gatorade, a few friends and mindless killing while playing Let the Bodies Hit the Floor

I appreciate you for your efforts, but personally I'll stick with my Charr hide set.

By the way, what's that elite skill you're using? I don't recognize the icon.

The armor is nice, but I absolutely hate the helmet. When I get this, I'm going to try a Primeval helm or 15k Plate helm.

The armor does indeed resemble Charr Hide armor, but I think Charr Hide looks better than this. I'll wait and see what the other factions offer for armor. Maybe I'll finally change from my Primeval armor.

The Norn Armor warrior helm in the Hall of Monuments looks 10 times better! I was stoked to get it until I see it doesn't really look like that.

I hope the Dwarven/Asuran/Vanguard armor looks better. I really need something other than Primeval. It used to be cool, until everyone got it.

Good pics of the armors here. As I said, the Norn Armor warrior helm is nothing like it was supposed to be.

I'm hoping the other types of warrior armor in Eotn are a little more "themed"
This kind looks too much mixed fur, spikes, plate, skull, horn....

I quite like it. My only problem with the leaked version of that armour was the helmet, glad to see it was changed, and it lends hope to the other sets only being tests as well.

The official Wiki has what looks to be the female Norn armour:

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Norn_armor

I'm disappointed it has to be said. Reskins are nothing new so that's okay, it's just the spiky look looks closer to the Ebon Vanguard's look than the Norn. For the blokes I would have preferred the kind of armour that all the Norn are wearing, where they have a massive, er, belly plate, and similarly for the women there are some nice, practical-ish (i.e. not Jora's!) armour, and I liked the look of the 'bunny' helm some of the Norn women sport.

I'm very disappointed with the armor. The other norn armors I've seen are amazing. I know I won't be getting this for my warrior, hopefully the other armos are nice.

That helm is butt ugly...they should have kept it the same way it was before because it's just like the ugly Elite Sunspear helm, utterly disgusting!

Same here, I actually had 56k Norn points on my female warrior, but when I saw those icons I wisely decided to keep 50k gold in the kitty. Icons looked very Charr-hide like and I detest that armor.

Why the hell do ANet make so many crap helmets? The armour sets look fine but they make the last piece so nasty.

Seriously I always hide mine, but then again I like my hair too.
