I think you're going to fail in that. 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder', 'there's no accounting for taste' and all that jazz. You cannot create a definitive 'best' skin simply because too many people disagree on what is nice.

Case in point, I saw a show on London, England. In it they mentioned a poll about nicest and ugliest buildings in town. The results from the two were actually very similar as the alot of people hated what others loved.

For every person that says 'destroyer weapons are t3h awesome' or 'torment weapons are the best evar!' there's another person that's going to come along and say that they're fugly.

Platinum Wand (runic inscriptions and has the same black rectangles like on monk fow armor)
Platinum Staff (runic inscriptions and has the same black rectangles on it like monk fow armor)

And the most beautiful weapon in the game imo at least: Celesial Compass. I like the three discs turning around on the compass as well as the runic inscriptions. It's a shame this item has a bad reputation because it's considered epeen.

Just because they get positve votes doesnt mean they got it right.
For example alot of people like the fellblades and Crystalines because they ,for some godawful reason, are popular but they are ugly as hell.

i pick my items on look rather than monetary value, its just unfortunate that some of the nicer are more expensive.

bows:
long-zodiac
recurve-torm
short-bramble
flat-bramble
horn-the good old dragon

sword- starter or the fell, malice won this thread with that post, srry kids
axe- runic axe or the old school battle axe with the double edge (not the bat wing)
shield- Tengu BMP, Gloom
Hammer- Tormented, whats more awesome than pounding a margo face into an opponents armor?

Staff- the smiting staff that mhenlo carries, if only it came in other atts
wand/offhand- really depends on the class, i dig the oldschool collector stuff for eles or just a martial and a prism, necro is torm, monk i dig the classic divine symbol and the pimp cup and bottles.
dags- dragon scythes (now dragon kamas)
scythe- clockwork, if only they'd animate it
spear- for caster BMP undead, but if you're actually chucking it it's retarted, Torm or demoncrest otherwise.

No, rarity. Which explains why Crystalline's are far and away the most expensive weapon; because everyone knows it's fugly.

Deldrimor weapons look pretty cool all-around, imo. But my vote still rests with the Emerald Blade... now if only I could afford one to replace my Sskai's Sword, because there's no way that's getting any votes in this thread.

Dude....tell me you are Not serious when asking that question.

Answer: Duh, it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaay over farmed. We base price on looks, but the supply and demand therom(whatever its called) always applies!(about 1 year ago a r10 perfect stats ele sword for 100k+10e was cheap, now a r9 perfect is like 27k)

I just spent about 5 minutes looking through every bow skin on wiki and it does not appear... Unless you're talking about another game that I don't know about.

That's the point he was trying to make..the elemental sword is UGLY, yet because of its name and uniqueness of the time it was the flavor of the month. If a weapon looks good, and keeps its rarity, it'll STAY steady in price, like the Voltaic spear.

Tengu Sword is the most beautiful sword skin in the game imo. I also love the Eternal Bow skin.

I'm sure that if they made recurve/flotbow versions of the zodiac and celestials, you'd see those on this list.

Til' then,

I don't think that's true because for one, I remember I ask people why are ele swords so expensive a year ago and they replied along the lines of "it has a nice skin".(yeah I thought ele sword looked GOOD too, even now )

Every skin has its lovers and haters.

Crystaline/Elemental,Tormented/ect...

Some of the most comon skins are so hated its hard to find anyone that actually has one thats max/gold with perfect stats...because they get merched almost instantly.

Forked Sword/Short Sword to name 2.
