Looking for guild

Mo/

During this preview weekend, I finished most of the quests, primary and secondary, including all master quests and dungeons. I was trying to get as much Norn points as possible in hopes that I could buy the Norn Armor.

After the preview weekend, I wasn't able to get the points needed, and was only capable of reaching rank 4, but I'm glad for it.

The new male Ritualist Norn armor is horrible, imo.

Very disappointing, Anet, specially because, apart from the Monk male armor, most of the new armor sets are really great.

I hope the Asuran/Deldrimor/Vanguard armors are better and worth the questing/point farming for the Ritualist.

What are your opinions on the new armor?

If the armor was dyed a different color it wouldn't bug me too much, but the worst part about it is the helmet...

The hat is what makes it interesting. The rest of it looks like pure barf, although the coloring might be why I think that. However, my Rt is a female, so I don't have to worry about this at all.

I'm curious if Ritualists have "woad" armor like some other professions seem to have now. Funny facepaint might be more tolerable than a viking demon mask for some people.

Hmm... I think I'm sticking with 15K Kurzick for now. And my next target is Ancient Armor, unless I see something that looks even better amongst the other armors that we will undoubtedly see.

From what I've seen of the Norn Female armor I like it a lot. I've been waiting for an armor to come out I like enough to buy...currently the only one I deem worth buying was the 15k Kurzick for my female rit. The Male version, however, does look fugly.

Hmm, well I like the Female version, looks very stylish...the male one however seems like Imperial (I think) with fur stuck to it. good thing my rit is a girl then

I do like the crazy masks on it though, it's a nice change from the same towels every other set has been offering.

I'm not sure about the Norn male armor. Reminds me of a shaggy dog with a demon head.

Once I see it more often and in some different colors, maybe I'll change my mind. I hope there is a vertical woad though. That would be great!

I'll look forward to seeing the other three armor sets.

I'm liking the armor, and definitely getting the female version for my rit. I don't think the male version looks too bad either, there's an interesting barbarian/viking kind of feel to it that I like a lot.
