Obsidian Armor Appearance
holy gug
Here I would like to get some ideas from everyone that how do you like the appearance (style/design/pattern) of the Obsidian Armor (the most expensive Armor in GW). To me, it just looks ugly and cheap. For some professions, it is not even comparable to their 15k armors. I was getting an idea from my guildies that Anet should either create a new costume with distinguished luxurious design (cost higher than Obsidian Armor) or redesign the current Obsidian Armor to make it more suitable to its price of 1 million gold.

I agree, 15k is definetley much nice, and what less than a 10th of the price.
Obsidan is just a hulk of black smudge on almost all proffesions. Personally i dislike Warrior the most, as its the most common and also the most mushhy like. lol
15k all the way

The designs of FoW armor are years older than their NF or EotN counterparts. It's to be expected that as the developers upgrade the visual engine, the armor sets will also improve.
If you prefer the look of one of the newer, less expensive sets (as other players do) then just buy it. Fissure armor doesn't have the esteem it once did, so wear whatever pieces you most want to look at. No one else cares.

FoW armour is just a waste of money.. most of the sets don't even look as good as their 15k counterparts.. and some sets don't even look better than their 1k counterparts imo.. namely Monk set.

most obsidian armors are totally ugly and imo alone there appearances makes them for me not worthy to be called Elite-Armor , only because so much ugliness costs so much ...and is hard to obtain...
But there are also some Obsidian Armors, that look quite good, when colored correct, like Obsidian Ranger Armor.
imo the 2 most ugly obsidian armors are Warrior(M) and Elementalist(F).
so ugly, its undescribeable
looks more like a robot of the year 3000
so have female eles too look like
sexy ^^
i'd wish, some obsi armors would be changed, overworked, i mean redesigned or so
That female obsi armor becomes more sexy and lets them not look like thorned war robots

Warrior FoW Helm is all right but the rest makes you look fat.
Steboy93
I agree with phoenixar, i really like the warrior obsidian helm but would never consider buying the rest of the set.

its PERSONAL PREFERENCE whether you like it or not. Just because some people don't like it doesn't mean everyone doesn't like it. So why should it be changed because some people don't like it?

The only obsi armor I like only a bit is the Rit(F). The others are plain ugly.

just deal with it lol, they aren't gonna change it

You cant argue for this kind of change based on personal preference.

I love Elementalist FoW, it gives me a big X-Men movie vibe with sculpted leather. rawr...
And Warrior FoW, i love the grimy dark cast iron texture of it.
To each his/her own.
The only thing i would change is for higher resolution on textures.

There's no debating that the Sin set looks mockingly simple compared to some of the ornate details that all the other professions have. I'd say a more detailed remake of that set, the others are fine.
Poisoned Hunter
I love male mesmer FoW because you don't see many male mesmers running with it :P
And Chaos Gloves with White-Dyed Male Mesmer FoW is simply beautiful.
(Just want to say how my Mesmer looks like ;P)
I really don't mind if they add new prestige armor to the game, but I would go with /signed.

Its personal preference. Anet isnt going to go back and redesign these. If they want to add another set.. sure. No harm in that.
I simply adore female monk FoW. I also really like female ele and necro, as well as mesmer. There's some I dont like, but for everyone there are sets they dont like and none of us would agree unanimously.

If Obsidian armors were imbalanced or somehow an exploit....petition a change
If obsidian armors were broken (things missing, animations broken, no texture, reverse normals)...petition change
If obsidian armors were bugged (somehow crashing the game) petition change
If obsidian armor somehow causes a forced decline in your gaming experience, then petition a change.
Skills fall under game playability, balance and function.
So does game speed.
Texture and chat..i dont even know how you can compare that.
Obsidian Armor is armor.
Its no better than any other armor. (in terms of function)
Its no worse than any other armor. (in terms of function)
Its different in its physical appearance to other armors (not prettier, not uglier, not better, just different)
Its more expensive than your standard armor.
If you dont like it.
DONT F_ING BUY IT.
Some people like me like some of it.
Stop trying to ruin other people's experience because somehow you think your preference is more important.
especially with a long established armor that other people have already bought/saving up for. Removing or changing it will ruin it for those players.

Even if some sets may look fugly to you, I'm not sure people would be happy to log on and see that their most expensive armor has totally changed.

For 600k+ there should be no debate on the quality of their looks. Face it.. 2/3's of the sets look average at best.. they need improving..

The luxurious design already exists... It's called Vabbian.
And I totally disagree on the "redesign Obsidian" part, most people (except the first ones) who bought Obsidian knew what it looks like so there's no reason to change them.

you may still want read the full sentence i guess. if you breaking the complete sentence, you are in danger of twist its original meaning. all teacher's responsibility maybe.

No reason to change.
If you don't like it, don't buy it. If other people buy it and like it, does it affect you?
The only possible thing I can think that they might do is refine the detail a little, make edges sharper etc. to make it seem more quality. But really, how can you justify to anet however many hours of their designers time to do that when it is going to have absolutely no effect on gameplay, or who's going to buy it.
If they bring in another set, I really couldn't care less, but again, how are you justifying the use of designers time? Because you don't think the current sets look like they're worth how much they cost?

If you want to look rich, get an expensive title.
If you want to have cool armor, buy armor that you like.
If you want to have cool armor and look rich, get an expensive title and good armor, you don't have to get fow to look rich if you don't like the armor.
Changing fow or creating a new set is just gonna piss everyone off who already has it.

My opinion of obsidian armor depends on the profession. Some are cool, some are okay, and some are downright ugly. But I could never own a set of obsidian armor, no way could I have that amount of cash. hehe Here are my rankings:
Good:
Dervish
Mesmer
Necromancer
Okay:
Monk
Paragon
Ranger
Ritualist (hat is ugly though)
Warrior
Ugly:
Assassin
Elementalist

How can people have the new armor set before it gets created?

If you can have IRREFUTABLE PROOF that every single person in the game hates the armour, including those wearing it, I will believe you. Prove me wrong. You have 10 minutes before I get bored with you.

(33 posts out of 15 min)I like the Obsidian weapons idea too. also I will say if new sets looks better then make it more expensive than obsidian armor.
let's post more ideas and we will make some change ^^
Alicendre
Still, I don't think the majority of players who are concerned by this request (why should the casual player who will never be able to buy a single place of Obsidian change it ?) want to change Obsidian...
